We had a great day today! Worship went well and there was a sweet spirit in the house. We discussed how to survive Christmas during the message today. I shared from my heart about my struggle to be excited about the holiday season. I love the meaning of Christmas but I despise what Christmas has come to represent.
We looked at surviving stress, surviving our relationship, and surviving depression and loneliness during the Christmas season. We then looked at the remedy: 1. Do not envy other people’s blessings 2. Forgive those who have hurt you 3. Remember the true meaning of Christmas (Jesus).
After service the choir practiced for our special service next week. They sounded great! Make sure you are there next Sunday, it should be awesome!
