The Gifts of Christmas | The Greatest Gift Has Already Arrived
📍 Christmas Service – December 21, 2025
Gowen Bible Church | Medler Campus

What are you really waiting for this Christmas?

In this Christmas service at Gowen Bible Church, we step back from the noise, the expectations, and the busyness of the season to rediscover what Christmas is truly about—not presents, not circumstances, but a Person.

In “The Gifts of Christmas: The Greatest Gift Has Already Arrived,” we walk through the heart of Advent and the powerful gifts Jesus brings into a dark and weary world:

✨ *Hope* that anchors us when life feels uncertain
❤️ *Love* that meets us in the mess, not after it’s cleaned up
🎶 *Joy* that goes deeper than happiness and outlasts hardship
🕊 *Peace* that guards our hearts even when life feels out of control
👑 *Jesus* — the gift from which all the others flow

This message is for anyone who feels tired, overwhelmed, grieving, anxious, or simply longing for something more this Christmas. It’s an invitation to pause, to look again at the manger, and to remember that the Light has already come—and He is still reaching for us today.

📖 Scriptures from Isaiah, Luke, John, Romans, Philippians, Hebrews, and more
🕯 Advent reflections culminating in the lighting of the Christ candle
🙏 A closing prayer and benediction reminding us: The Light has come.

Whether you’re part of our church family or joining us online, we’re grateful you’re here.

Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD shines over you.” – Isaiah 60:1

🎄 Merry Christmas from Gowen Bible Church.
