Arise to Christmas: Arise to an Unexpected Savior

Arise to Christmas: Arise to an Unexpected Savior - Ken Wetmore

Sometimes we find the greatest love in the most unexpected places. Surely, as the shepherds, magi, and others viewed Jesus, they must have felt surprised that Israel’s Messiah was a helpless baby born into a poor family. However, this is how God loved this world, He gave His only Son so that anyone willing to embrace the unexpected will be embracing the Giver of Life.


Our #WholeLifeReflections: 


  • How has God loved you this week?
  • What opportunities did God give you this week to visit Jesus?
  • What keeps you from arising to visit Jesus? Have you asked Jesus to remove those barriers?
