Christmas has been coopted and morphed by the world into a facade of manufactured “cheer” but never contentment. We have “more” than ever, but never enough. Jesus offers the seeker something that money cannot buy – “peace”.

Isa 48:22

“‘There is no peace for the wicked,’ says the Lord.”

Human responses to a lack of peace…
1. AVOID
2. REPLACE
3. LIE

The purpose of Christmas was to send Jesus to save sinners

Mark 2:17

“On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”

Christmas is not about
1. AVOID – It isn’t about a holiday
2. REPLACE – It isn’t about family
3. LIE – It isn’t about reindeer
