A Christmas Conspiracy: Live, Love

Tue, 19 Dec 2023 22:35:42 GMT

For many of us, Christmas means overstuffed schedules, credit card debt, and skyrocketing stress. We struggle to find the connection between our holiday to-do lists and the story of Jesus’ birth. So we’re in a conspiracy together to flip the script. This week, Pastor Jason Bentley talks about how choosing mission over entertainment is one way to do that.

A Christmas Conspiracy: Less is More

Mon, 11 Dec 2023 21:13:34 GMT

Pastor Jason encourages us to choose a revolutionary Christmas through engaging in the conspiracy of choosing the king of less over the king of more.

This message by Pastor Jason Bentley will inspire you to do something differently this Christmas.
