How can we rediscover and share the joy God has given us? In this week's sermon, "Re-Gifting Joy," we dive into Psalm 16:1-11, exploring how David's words point us toward a life rooted in God’s eternal promises and daily presence.

In a season often overwhelmed with stress, anxiety, and busyness, Jesus offers us something extraordinary: peace. In this message, we explore what it means to not only receive the peace of Christ but to "regift" it to those around us.

Join us as we dive into Scripture:

• Luke 21:34-36 - Staying vigilant and prayerful in a world filled with distractions.
• Luke 2:1-14 - The angelic proclamation of peace through the birth of Jesus.
• John 14:27 - The unique and lasting peace Jesus gives.

We’ll reflect on the transformative power of the Jesus Prayer, the timeless wisdom of Francis of Assisi, and a creative illustration that reveals how peace can overflow into our lives and others.

Key Takeaway: True peace is not meant to be hoarded but shared. By anchoring ourselves in Christ, we become instruments of peace in a restless world.

📖 Reflection:

• How can you embrace God’s peace in your life today?
• Who in your life might need a reminder of that peace this season.

In this message, we kick off the Advent season with *Regifting Hope*. Just like a gift meant to be shared, God has given us the gift of hope—not just to hold onto, but to share with others. Drawing from Luke 1, we explore the story of Mary and her response to the angel’s life-changing message. What can we learn from her trust and obedience? What does hope look like in our lives, especially when things are not as they should be?

Join us for this inspiring first week of Advent, and learn how to regift the hope that transforms lives.
