Christmas is for-giving! In this series we talk about the topics of offense and forgiveness which probably touches a hundred percent of people at one time or another. During the Christmas season these feelings seem to be heightened. The plan of the enemy is to steal, kill and destroy but Jesus came that we might have life and have it abundantly. What if we really did have a white Christmas? What if the condition of our heart was set free and purified white as snow? We pray you enjoy and are able to have a real White Christmas! In this Christmas Eve message Pastor Deryck tells us that we must heal our past hurts to be able to see a better future for ourselves. As we forgive ourselves and allow God's grace forgive and heal us - we will then not only heal ourselves, we will be able to help others as well! We pray that this powerful message speaks life to you! And don't miss a special rendition of Silent Night too ;)
