December 24, 2024 | "Shine in the Darkness: Christmas Eve” | Rev. Vicki Harrison

5:00 pm Family Service


7:00 pm Traditional Service


Summary:

In her poignant Christmas Eve message titled "Light in the Darkness," Rev. Vicki Harrison invites us to reflect on the profound significance of Jesus’s birth into a world engulfed in both physical and spiritual darkness. She artfully draws connections between contemporary struggles with darkness, such as depression, anxiety, and loneliness, and the oppressive darkness experienced during Jesus's time under Roman rule. Rev. Harrison reminds us that Jesus, prophesied by Isaiah as a beacon of hope, was born to be the light in our darkness, offering salvation and a new way of being. Her message reaffirms the power of Jesus’s light to overcome any form of darkness we face today and encourages us to carry and share this light, transforming our surroundings and pointing others towards the Father.
