Get ready to be stretched, challenged, and changed in this new year.

The Candy Shoppe – Christmas Shoppe (Session Four)

It is the Sunday before Christmas. Our Christmas Shoppe this morning is The Candy Shoppe. There’s something magical about a candy shop at Christmas. The colors. The smells. The joy. Candy doesn’t solve life’s problems—but it reminds us that life is meant to be sweet. Christmas is far more than ornaments and decorations, it is about how we express our own love for Jesus as we celebrate His birth. The characteristics of God’s love are like the ingredients found in the best of candy and so today, in our visit to The Candy Shoppe we find the true meaning of Christmas all over again.
