Do we dare to hope that 2021 will be a better year? Does God really heal today? How much faith do we need to be healed? Why does it seem that God heals sometimes, but not always? When Jesus encounters a desperately sick woman, we learn that even though disappointment is INEVITABLE, hope is INDISPENSIBLE.

"Before the Prince of Peace had learned to walk and talk, he was a homeless refugee with a price on his head." - N.T. Wright
Have you ever asked yourself, "Is God with me in the mess of my life?" So many stories end with the characters living happily ever after. But what about the Christmas story?

Can you imagine hearing the Christmas story retold by someone who was actually there? A story we're all familiar with, seen from a new perspective that meets us today, right where we are? Even in 2020? Every year at Christmastime, one of our Advent worship services takes a creative turn. We replace the sermon with something we call the "theatrical monologue." This year, Pastor Bryan Wilkerson retold the story from the perspective of Luke, one of the authors of the four gospels in the Bible's New Testament. He was a physician, a scientist, and a gifted storyteller who captured details in unique ways that help us understand more about Jesus.

We all have expectations for how our days, our life, or Christmas will go. But what do we do when things turn out to be less than perfect? In this Christmas message for Advent 2020, Pastor Leah Knight Breton answers questions like, Is God still working in my imperfect and messy life? Is there any hope for Christmas 2020? Is there something to learn from the original Christmas story about God working in less-than-perfect circumstances?
