​Christmas Carol Countdown
Each day this week Keith & Kristen Getty are releasing a Christmas Carol and encouraging us to sing along at home.
Today's carol, "Brightest And Best," blends the timeless lyrics of 19th century Anglican Bishop Reginald Heber's seasonal carol with the bluegrass style of Ricky Skaggs and the Irish sounds of Keith & Kristyn Getty and the band.
There are two versions to watch, one with lyrics and one with the singers.

​New City Catechism
Q) What Does Christ’s Resurrection Mean for Us?
A) Christ triumphed over sin and death by being physically resurrected, so that all who trust in him are raised to new life in this world and to everlasting life in the world to come. Just as we will one day be resurrected, so this world will one day be restored. But those who do not trust in Christ will be raised to everlasting death.

​Bethlehem
More than just a “little town” of Christmas carol melodies, Bethlehem is a real place with significant biblical history and theological importance.
