TFPC EM NEWSLETTER - DECEMBER 22, 2021

The Coming Love
Today is December 22, 2021
Welcome to your mid-week!
Christmas is the time when we remember the birth of Jesus Christ in Bethlehem. When the angels appeared to the shepherds to bring them 'the good news that will cause great joy for all the people' (Luke 2:10), they were referring to what Jesus' coming would bring. And boy is it good news.
Jesus' coming brings the hope of eternal life.
Jesus' coming brings peace with our maker.
Jesus' coming brings the joy of the resurrection.
Jesus' coming brings the love of God to us sinners.
In a world broken by sin as evident by the current pandemic and by the death we all will face, truly Christmas is the good news that should give us all great joy.
God's blessings upon you as you meditate on the reason for the season, and I look forward to worshiping with you all this Sunday.
