A Savior is born to dwell among us! Christmas Day is the festival of the Incarnation: the eternal Son of God was born in time as the Son of Mary so that in His flesh He might free us from the bondage of sin. We rejoice that, because God sent His only-begotten Son Jesus Christ, through faith in Him we are now God's children and heirs of life everlasting.

God will save His people, just as He promised! The promise of Immanuel--"God-with-us"--is fulfilled in the virgin birth of the Son of David who is also the Son of God.

Pastor's sermon, "God's Kingdom Comes Through the Child Immanuel," is based on Isaiah 7:10-14.
Christ's coming drives the darkness from our hearts and causes us to rejoice as we anticipate the fullness of our salvation in Him. Pastor's sermon, "Isaiah's Gospel Promises: God's Coming Kingdom Brings Great Joy" is based on Isaiah 35:1-10. God bless your worship!

In a world where God's people are scattered by rulers who care more about preserving their own power than doing what is right, we can put our trust in this sure promise: we will live with Christ in His kingdom, rejoicing in His righteousness, and resting in His eternal peace.

Our risen and ascended Lord will return to “judge the quick and the dead.” But we will not fear. We will stand before the Judge of all, confident of our innocence in Jesus.
