Christmas Eve 2025

Christmas Eve Service on 12/24/25 by Pastor Todd Sapp Merry Christmas! Join Pastor Todd and the Northwoods community for our special Christmas Eve service. In this message, we pause to intentionally shift our focus from the busyness of the season to the true miracle: the birth of Jesus Christ. Through the stories of Mary, Joseph, and the shepherds in Luke 2, we explore how God’s perfect plan often arrives in the middle of human chaos. From the "no room at the inn" to the angelic proclamation in a lonely field, discover how Jesus is the Light of the World who brings hope for the weary and peace for the restless. Whether you are seeking rest from a stressful year or looking for a fresh start in the New Year, this service reminds us that Emmanuel (God with us) is our wonderful counselor and prince of peace. Key Topics Covered: Finding Peace in Chaos: How God used a Roman census and a humble manger to fulfill His ancient promises. The Shepherd’s Good News: Why God chose "working-class heroes" to be the first messengers of the Gospel. Making Room for Jesus: Understanding why the rejection of Christ on earth led to Him making room for us in eternity. Beholding the Light: A candlelight worship experience reflecting on Jesus as the source of redeeming grace.
