What is the Christmas Season?

God loves us so much that he sent us his only Son, Jesus. During the Christmas season, we celebrate Jesus' birth and his becoming known to the world - his Epiphany. Discover ideas to celebrate Christmas by selecting a link below.

  • Why do you think God chose to come into the world as a baby? What does that tell us about God?
  • How can we make room for Jesus in our hearts and our homes during the Christmas season?

Lord, in this holy season of prayer and song and laughter, we praise you for the great wonders you have sent us: for shining star and angel's song, for infant's cry in lowly manger. We praise you for the Word made flesh in a little Child. We behold his glory, and are bathed in its radiance.


Be with us as we sing the ironies of Christmas, the incomprehensible comprehended, the poetry made hard fact, the helpless Babe who cracks the world asunder. We kneel before you shepherds, innkeepers, wise men. Help us to rise bigger than we are. Amen.
