Take up a childlike heart again this Christmas and be swept up into the awe and beauty of Immanuel—God with us. 

In our masculine initiation, it is often through the megaphone of pain that God rouses parts of us long dormant. 

In time and over time, we're invited to follow the path and process of Jesus, passing through death into more and more life.

We can choose to be with God rather than try to impress him. We can experience friendship with God that far outweighs the fleeting nature of our talents.

Over a lifetime of maturing, we are intended to become the children, the friends, and, finally, the lovers of God.

Join us as we weave together story and song to shepherd our hearts ever deeper into the hope and heart of a God unbound by death. 

The one who knows us best is the one who loves us most. 

Our stories do not define us; the Author of them does. 

There is perhaps no promise greater than the bottom-line reality that God's love gets the last word. And all will be made new in the light of this love.

Your heart's healing is not about you, nor is it primarily for you. It’s primarily for others.
