The Christmas season reminds us of the longing for home—a place where we belong, are loved, and find peace.
But sometimes, just like Mary and Joseph in Luke 2:1-7, the journey to “home” isn’t easy.
Yet, even in unexpected places and imperfect circumstances, God creates a space for us to belong.
Christmas is here and it is time to go “Home for Christmas.”
Today we will see the importance of home and how to help create that safe space for others.

To live the life you were created by God to live you need tenacity. No shortcuts, you must learn to be tenacious. In the final session of this series, we’ll explore the importance of pre-deciding to be persistent and resilient. Life’s obstacles can either break us or build us, but when we choose to be tenacious in advance, we are equipped to persevere no matter what comes our way.

We are in a series about making Preemptive Strikes in our life! Today we talk about a very important and telling pre-choice.
Generosity is more than just spontaneous giving; it’s a mindset that begins with a pre-choice to be a blessing. If you are willing, you will find some ways to cultivate a heart of generosity, become a philanthropist in spirit, and live in such a way that our lives pour out love, kindness, and resources to those around us.

Preemptive Strike continues this week. We are discovering the power of our choices, in particular our pre-choices! Loyalty isn’t forged in the moment; it’s a decision made long before. In this study, we’ll explore the power of being steadfast and loyal to God, to others, and to the values we hold dear. If we would learn to do this preemptive strike – our lives would be radically better, different, and we would find great joy in the adventure.
