Luke 2:1-11

Join us for the first week of our Christmas series, "Why Christmas Matters," where Pastor Paul Ortiz explores Luke 2:1-11 in the sermon titled "Fear Not." In a world filled with uncertainty, division, and endless bad news, Pastor Paul reminds us of the angel's powerful proclamation to the terrified shepherds: "Fear not, for I bring you good news of great joy." Discover how the prophet Isaiah's words — "the government shall be upon his shoulders" — offer profound comfort for weary souls who feel the weight of the world pressing down on them. Learn why the baby born in Bethlehem means we can resign as "general manager of the universe" and trust that God is strong enough to carry every burden we face. Whether you're exhausted from trying to fix broken situations, worried about the future, or simply need to be reminded that darkness will not win, this message will inspire you to exchange your fears for the hope found in the manger.
