We all look forward to embracing the New Year with big expectations, fresh ideas, and new dreams. However, none of us think…

“What do you want to be when you grow up?”

That question never bothered me when I was a little kid, but as I got older and reality started to set in and my options narrowed, the question started to make me cringe.

I remember the first time I heard someone refer to our church as “The Christmas Church.” I was at Costco, and someone introduced me to a friend as the new pastor at their church. Their friend told me that they had been to the Living Nativity many times, and their family called us “The Christmas Church.” How cool is that?
