Christmas is more than just a holiday; it is a time to reflect on the most important event in human history: the incarnation of Jesus Christ. While news stories about lost pets or changing interest rates might grab our attention, the account found in Luke chapter two is truly good news for every person who has ever lived. In this message, Pastor Chris Chadwick provides powerful expositional preaching on the birth of Christ, moving from the political and personal challenges faced by Mary and Joseph to the glorious announcement made to despised shepherds in a field. Discover how the "mega" joy promised by the angels offers a sustained peace with God that transcends human happiness and provides the only resolution for our greatest spiritual need.
