SERMON SERIES
Week 1
“The Faith of Mother Mary”
Mary is invited into an impossible calling - bearing the Savior - and her response shows us that faith doesn’t mean having all the answers, but trusting God’s plan anyway. In the Nativity story, Mary models a courageous “yes,” reminding us that true faith often begins where certainty ends.
Week 2
“The Obedience of Joseph”
Joseph’s quiet obedience reveals a faith that listens to God, responds with mercy, and chooses faithfulness even when it costs reputation, comfort, and control. Matthew 1:18–25 invites us not just to admire Joseph’s faith, but to emulate it in our own lives with courage and trust.
Week 3
“Glory Come Down”
Pastor Davis teaches how God revealed His glory not to the powerful, but to lowly shepherds, showing the holy God came in humility to save sinners through Jesus. Their encounter shows grace puts the least first and sends all who meet Christ to joyfully tell the good news.
Week 4
“The Manger & the Cross”
Pastor Chris reminds us that Jesus entered the world in humility because humility was the necessary path to the cross. The manger and the cross together show that Jesus came not to be admired, but to be believed, calling us to respond as witnesses to His saving love.
Nativity
GOD WITH US
Rediscover Christmas through the people God chose to write His story. Through Mary, showing us to have faith when life changes unexpectedly, and the shepherds reminding us that joy reaches even the overlooked. Each week reveals a different part of how heaven broke into earth.
This sermon shows us Christmas is still happening now. God still interrupts, still speaks, still saves, and still invites us to live inside His story. And in doing so, we discover that the story of Christmas was always meant to include us.
