Devotional:

Christmas is a rescue mission heaven touching earth, the infinite becoming an infant, God taking on flesh to save us. The true meaning of Christmas isn't found in what we give but in what we've been given: salvation through Jesus Christ. Have you made the connection with Christ, surrendering to Him as Lord? Are you connected in community where growth and care happen? Are you connecting others to their purpose in Christ? As this Christmas season unfolds, God is inviting you to take the next step. Perhaps it's surrendering your life to Jesus for the first time. Maybe it's finally joining a small group or serving in ministry. Or possibly it's boldly sharing the gospel with someone in your circle. The connection changes everything.

Reflection: 

What is the one connection step God is calling you to make this Christmas season?
