What Comes After Christmas?

Presented at Curwensville Alliance on 12/29/24 by Tom Ford.

What comes after Christmas?

2024 has been a hard year for many. What is God’s message for us at the beginning of the New Year?

Christmas is not over, but just beginning. We must take the spirit of Christmas into the New Year, but how do we do that?

We do that as a church. And we do that as individuals. Take the spirit of Christmas into the new year, by God dwelling among us. God dwelling in us. God dwelling through us.
