Bible Text: Luke 2:13-15 | Preacher: Darryl Palmer | Our cultural Christmas traditions, unfortunately, cause us to often lose focus in remembering the purpose of Christ coming to earth. Luke 2:13-15. The carol “Joy to the World“ talks not only about the first advent of Christ but also his second advent. At Christmas time this year let’s use our family gatherings to engage with folks in purposeful conversations; not only about the Christ child in the cradle, but also the Christ on the cross.
