Children’s Christmas Service

December 22 | 4:00pm - Wonewoc Campus

Joy Has Dawned

Join us for this special service that traces the dawn of various eras in God’s love for humanity: the dawn of time, the dawn of hope following the fall into sin, the dawn of joy at Jesus’ coming that first Christmas, and the dawn of the New Testament church. Hear and sing the story of God’s grace proclaimed in Scripture and captured in beloved Advent and Christmas hymns.

Christmas Eve Compline

God Gives Heaven’s Best Gift in Earth’s Unlikeliest Place

When the president of the United States visits a city, his agenda generally does not include spending time with common, ordinary people. If that is the case when the president makes a visit, what should we have expected when the Son of God came to earth? Not the events of Christmas Eve! The first guests Jesus receives are not kings or emperors, but humble shepherds.

Because God put heaven’s best gift in earth’s unlikeliest place, there will always be room at the manger for you. You can know with certainty that God gave this gift—and all the gifts he brought with him—“to you.”

Christmas Cantata

December 24 | 4:00pm - Wonewoc Campus

A Noel Celebration

A service of lessons and carols presented by our Christmas Cantata Choir. Hear the accounts of the first-hand witnesses who shared in the events surrounding the miraculous birth of Jesus: Zechariah, Mary, Joseph, a shepherd, a wise man, and Simeon. A blend of original and familiar carols provides a dramatic sonic backdrop for these inspiring stories of God’s love for all people.

Christmas Day

December 25 | 8:00am - Hillsboro Campus & 10:30am - Wonewoc Campus

God Gives Himself as One of Us

Have you ever opened a Christmas present and had to ask, “What is it?” As we look into the manger, we ask that question. We are looking at the same God who once told the prophet Moses, “No one may see me and live.” Yet Mary, Joseph, and the shepherds all saw their holy God and survived. How? God became human, hiding his glory within our flesh. This gift is God and man in one person, exactly what humanity needed to deliver us from our greatest enemies: sin, death, and Satan. This Christmas, we thank God for this greatest of gifts.
