CHRISTMAS 2025: PROMISES KEPT
Christmas is more than a season of celebration – it is the culmination of a story God began writing before the foundation of the world. From the first whisper of hope in Eden to the words of prophets who spoke of a coming King, Scripture carries a single thread of expectation: God would send a Savior. In this series, “Promises Kept”, we will trace that story and see how every longing, every shadow, and every promise finds its “Yes” and “Amen” in the birth of Jesus Christ. As we gather around the manger, we discover not merely the arrival of a child, but the faithfulness of a God who keeps His word.
