Finding Christ in Christmas Series

Join us at The Rock Church this Christmas season as we discover Finding Christ in Christmas. 

“She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins. All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet: “Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel” (which means, God with us).” — Matthew 1:21-23 

Too often, the true meaning of Christmas gets lost in the hype of the season. With an overload of activities to attend, presents to buy and people to see, we can easily forget what Christmas is truly about. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a reminder of what we’re really celebrating?

Christmas

Well, it’s that time of year and tomorrow we’ll celebrate Christmas! We’ll celebrate in our own ways and for me, it’ll be my 35th Christmas. Each one of them has been different. Some have been memorable and detailed in my mind, some have blended together and some of them I don’t remember
at all.

No matter how you celebrate (or how many you’ve celebrated), each Christmas is a reminder to us that Jesus came to this world and dwelt among us. It’s an opportunity for us to remember that He came to save us.

Good News Christmas Series

“Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.” — Luke 2:10-12

Christmas is the time of year when the world remembers the Good News that is found in Jesus Christ. During the Christmas season, the most read passages of Scripture will be from the story told in Luke 1 & 2.

God With Us Christmas Series

It says in Matthew 1:23, “The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him ‘Immanuel’ — which means, God with us.” Christmas isn’t ultimately about gifts, pretty lights, Santa, or a festive party. Christmas is about the coming of God into this world. Jesus of Nazareth — God in the flesh — came to this world as a baby. He grew up to become a man and then died. He died for the sins of all Mankind — including yours. This four-part series will start December 2 & 3. Join us during this Christmas season as we reflect on the birth, humanity, divinity, and saving power of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

God Loves You

God loves you! Jesus’ coming into this world and going through everything He did (including His death) was God’s gift to you. This is the heartbeat of the Bible and the wonderful message of Christmas. He loves you.

Isaiah 9:6 says, “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”

Look again at what that verse says. “For to us….”. Are you catching it? It says, “for to us a son is given…” Jesus is a gift from God to us!

Christmas is so close, and I can assure you, there are a few excited boys at the Young home (yes, I am one of them)! Christmas is indeed a magical time. (more…)
