First Church Charlotte

December 13, 2020 | Pastor Nathan Elms We tend to symbolize Christmas with tensile and sentimental warm happy memories of gifts and the magic of the season, but when Jesus Christ was born, it was a stressful time of the difficulty of traveling on a donkey while at the point of giving birth, and no place found for the pregnant couple. It must have been very difficult for Joseph, as the husband of a very pregnant Mary, to have to settle on her giving birth in a barn. The true story of Christmas is about the gift of hope for all, and especially for those who are hurting.
