Great Joy
November 30, 2025 - December 24, 2025
This Advent, our "Great Joy" sermon series invites us to slow down and rediscover the wonder of Jesus’ arrival. Each week, we’ll explore a different part of the Christmas story—from the promise of joy foretold in Isaiah, to the joy shared between Elizabeth and Mary, to Mary’s song of praise, and the joy of the Magi as they followed the star. Join us as we journey together through the story of Jesus and the great joy He brings.
