Celebrating A Biblical Christmas Demands Faith in God

Sermon Description

In this week’s message, Pastor Jeff begins the Christmas series Behold: Christmas 2025 by calling us back to the true meaning of Christmas and the faith it requires. Walking through key moments of the biblical Christmas story, he highlights four miracles that reveal a God who keeps His promises and works beyond the limits of nature. From fulfilled prophecy to the incarnation of Christ, this message reminds us that Christmas is not just something to celebrate, but something to believe.

Series Overview

The Scriptures summon the world to come and behold a wondrous, glorious display of God’s immeasurable love for the world. - R. Albert Mohler

Christmas exists because God came to save sinners through the birth of His Son, Jesus. Yet our culture often misses this reality, overshadowing the season with materialism, commercialization, and secular traditions.

But Scripture calls us to behold—to look with awe and wonder at God who took on flesh. In this series, we will return to the true meaning of Christmas by asking what the Biblical narrative demands of us: faith, worship, and expectation. If we’re going to share the love of Christ with our relational world, we must behold the right thing: Jesus Himself—the glory of God made visible.
