Love didn’t begin with us, it began with God. At the heart of Christmas is the truth that God is love, and He didn’t just say it…He showed it. In Jesus, love took on flesh, stepped into our broken world, and moved toward us long before we ever moved toward Him.

In this message we reflect on the kind of love that meets us in our need, not our perfection, a love that pursues the undeserving and brings life where there was once only loss. From a manger in Bethlehem to a cross outside Jerusalem, God’s love has always been active, sacrificial, and personal.

As we prepare our hearts for Christmas, we’ll be reminded that this love must first be received before it can ever be reflected. When we truly experience the love of God, it changes how we live, how we see others, and how we love the world around us.
