What Christmas Is

Video Illustration

Produced by Freebridge Media

Christmas is so much more than a holiday. It’s more than family get-togethers, presents under the tree and lights hanging on the house. Christmas is about God reaching down from Heaven. It’s about the birth of Jesus, our Savior. It’s about the Word becoming flesh and dwelling among us. Christmas is about grace and the promise of eternity. Simply put, Christmas is about Jesus.

The True Heart Of Christmas

Video Illustration

Produced by Freebridge Media

We used to wander, stuck in our brokenness. We didn’t know it yet, but we needed grace. While we were lost in darkness, God was consumed by love. A love which led Him to do the unimaginable. A love which would cost Him his Son. One night in Bethlehem, the heart of Christmas began beating with a rhythm that would change the world. Jesus, the Son of God, our Savior…was born. Love in the flesh. Grace in a manger. Today we celebrate that moment. We worship our Messiah and we stand in awe of the life-changing gift God has given us. Jesus…the true heart of Christmas.

For God So Loved The World

Video Illustration

Produced by Freebridge Media

It was a night unlike any other. There was a stillness in the air, a quiet calm in the evening sky. Grace was on the horizon. An unfathomable mercy, a love deeper than anyone had ever known. This silent night was about to give way to a chorus which would change the world forever. For on this day in the city of David is born a Savior…Jesus, The Son of God, The Word in flesh. God had reached down from Heaven to Earth to draw us to himself, to make a way to bring us home. Today, the heart of God is on full display. For God so loved the world.
