    There are four distinct groups found in the nativity story and each group represent a different truth about the birth of God's Son

    VOICES IN THE NIGHT INTRODUCTION: It seems appropriate to me that in a world where Christmas has become more and more commercialized that the eve of the birth of our savior will fall on a Sunday this year.

The designated Scriptures for this Christmas Eve Service are: Isaiah 9:2-7; Psalm 96; Titus 2:11-14 and Luke 2:1-20. Can you hear it? ......There is a buzz in the air. ......Maybe you can feel it.
