Christmas Begins with ChristSample
Here we see the rejoicing when God restores the land and brings victory to his people.
The church in Shivnagar, Nepal knows what it is like to celebrate with joy. Last Christmas 900 believers from all over the district celebrated a festive community meal, for Pastor Madan it was an opportunity to demonstrate joy and generosity of being church together. But even this type of celebration together will be a pale comparison of the celebration we're invited to when God's kingdom is finally and fully revealed. Praise God for the work of his church today. Consider who you could invite to join in with celebrating God's goodness this Christmas.
