It’s the most wonderful time of the year… or is it? For some, Christmas brings with it cozy thoughts of sweet songs, pleasant people, crackling fires, warm blankets, piping cider and scrumptious cookies. But what if the season doesn’t elicit that for you? What if while everyone else is having a “merry old time” you are reminded of cold weather, barren branches and the loss of someone you love? Or what if this Christmas isn’t so cozy and the fire goes out, the cookies burn and you find yourself really not excited about the people you are going to have to be with? Come join us as we explore how the first Christmas wasn’t all that cozy either, yet God was able to bring light, hope, peace, joy and love out of difficult situations.
