Seeking Christmas
Dec 01 2024 • Dan Kent, Greg Boyd, Shawna Boren
Throughout Jesus’ life, people were always seeking him; some for healing, some for hope, some for answers. The first of these seekers arrived at his manger on that very first night. The seekers included outcasts and foreigners, rich and poor, young and old, the devout and not-so-devout, the widow at the bottom of society, the king at the top of society and everyone in between. During this series we join the seekers of Christmas, and reflect on what brought them to Jesus then, and what brings us to Jesus now.
