The name given to Jesus at His birth was Emmanuel which means “God with us”. Christmas reminds us that our God has come close in the form of Jesus. No matter where we find ourselves today, God is close to us and so is redemption.

Oakwood Community Church concludes the Christmas Playlist' series with a candlelight service titled, "Songs of the Savior". This service includes children's bells, a wonderful choir, beautiful worship music, inspiring videos and a salvation message from Lead Pastor Don Jackson (PD). There are no message notes this week.
In Christmas Playlist: From Chaos to Christ Part #3, "Your Heart's an Empty Hole," Pastor Matt Loomis highlights the transformative power of Jesus in our lives. Using Christmas characters like the Grinch and Scrooge, he contrasts superficial change with the radical heart transformation Jesus offers. Drawing from Ezekiel 36:26, Pastor Matt explains that Jesus came to replace our broken, deceitful hearts with new ones, making us a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17). This heart change, evidenced by a deeper love for God and others, is the true gift of Christmas—one that offers lasting transformation, not just temporary fixes.

Christmas time fills us with joy as we remember the salvation that comes through the birth of Jesus. The mark of a Christian should be a joy that is not dependent upon external circumstances or situations. Our joy springs eternally because we have been rescued from our sin.

The nearness of God in Jesus is the ultimate expression of love. In this final message of our Christmas Playlist series, we reflect on how the birth of Christ reveals God's desire to be with us, know us, and transform our lives. Christmas is an invitation to experience the depth of God's love and to live in the joy of His presence.Questions for Reflection:• Does your soul feel its "worth"? Why or why not? Why does God being with us speak to that?• Why do you enjoy spending time around people you love? What does that say to us about Jesus having come to be with us?

In this second part of Crosspoint Church's Christmas Playlist series, Pastor Matt Loomis reflects on the theme "No Place Like Home," emphasizing that Christmas is not about perfect circumstances but the arrival of a Perfect Savior. Jesus came not as a powerful king but as an ordinary baby, inviting us into a journey home to God. Pastor Matt explores the biblical stories of the shepherds and the Magi, highlighting how God's invitation extends to everyone, regardless of their background. Through Jesus, the way home is made clear, and He promises an eternal home with God for all who believe. The message challenges listeners to reflect on their own journey, reminding them that Christmas is not just about celebrating Jesus' birth but about recognizing that He made the way for us to come home to God. Pastor Matt encourages everyone to receive this gift of salvation and to share the love of Christ with others during this Christmas season.

In this episode, Pastor Matt Loomis kicks off the series Christmas Playlist: From Chaos to Christ with a powerful message titled "It's Not So Wonderful." Pastor Matt challenges the notion of a "perfect" Christmas, pointing out how the first Christmas was filled with unexpected news, unplanned changes, and uncomfortable journeys. Through the stories of Mary and Joseph, we learn that Christmas isn't about perfect circumstances but about a Perfect Savior who enters our mess. Join us as we reflect on how God's peace, strength, and purpose can transform our chaotic lives this holiday season.

“Pastor John's Christmas Playlist: JOY” John 1:1-5 Rev. John Allen dreams of the joy of Christmas lasting all year long. Recorded live at Stonebridge United Methodist Church in McKinney, Texas. For more information, please visit www.mysumc.org.
When the God of the universe was born into the world, it was not in an ivory tower somewhere far from the broken world, but instead, it was right in the middle of a messy stable and a world that needed a Savior. This song reminds us that God is born to each of us, no matter who we are or where we come from.
Lead Pastor Don Jackson (PD) continues in the series for Christmas titled, Christmas Playlist". This week we are in the book of Luke with a focus on the "Angels' Song". In this message, PD helps us imagine what it may have been like for the shepherds to receive the glorious message of Christ's birth. Online Message Notes

The Song of Zechariah: Christmas Playlist - Part 2 by Southwinds Church of Tracy
Pastor Hans uses Christmas Songs to relate to our daily lives.
(Luke 1:26-56) December 8, 2024 – Michael Nolen
The announcement given to the shepherds in the field was good news for all people. A Savior was born who would bring peace to a world that was in great need. The shepherds could have ignored the news as it seemed too good to be true, but they went away at once to see for themselves. This song reminds us that this good news is for us today, but will we believe it?
This week in our Christmas Playlist series, we explore the carol Hark! The Herald Angels Sing and the biblical promise of peace. Far more than the absence of conflict, true peace brings wholeness and restoration to our lives through Jesus. Discover how His arrival fulfills God's promises and offers us peace that transforms even the most chaotic seasons.Questions for Reflection:• In your life's journey, who/what/where do you tend to turn to fill the void/emptiness than can dwell inside?• In the quote used at the end of message, do you see evidences of places you're lacking peace: with others? within? with God? What would it take to surrender those to the King of Peace today?
