We wish you more this Christmas. We wish you a Christmas that gets even closer to the heart of the matter. As we rejoice in His advent, we exult in the most significant missional event ever! Christmas is Mission. If Jesus hadn’t come, we would still be lost in darkness. If he hadn’t left his home and taken up residence among us - we who were lost and needy – there would be no hope for us. As we buy gifts, sing songs, feast in our abundance and remember His coming, please don’t forget those who live without hope, those who are still lost in darkness. As we worship the Christ child this year, we worship the one who gave up everything, His riches, home and very nature - to come and bring us light and save us.
“Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death – even death on a cross!” (Philippians 2, 5-8)
With joy,
Jason and Sue
