Pastor Mike Anderson - preached December 15 - The Christmas season is not a time of joy for everyone. In fact, sometimes it can be a time of great sadness for people. So, what can we learn from the story of Jesus’ birth which is laden with joy? There is great joy when Jesus was born for all people, and there will be great joy when He returns. But the question for today is how can you experience joy in a world that is often joyless? How can we learn from Mary’s joy despite her lowly estate? Mary’s experience of joy by being the mother of our Savior can teach us what leads to true joy looks like, even when things are not perfect.
