What if God wants to reach someone else through you this Christmas?

In this message, we discover that Emmanuel — God with us — is both a gift and a mission. Through personal stories and practical challenges, we’re reminded that God’s presence doesn’t stop with us but moves through us, bringing light into dark places and hope into hurting lives. A timely and stirring call to be fully present, to notice the people around us, and to become Emmanuel in everyday moments.

What if the greatest gift God gives isn’t His presence beside you, but His presence within you? In this message from our Emmanuel series, we reflect on how Jesus moved from the manger in Bethlehem to the heart of the believer through the Holy Spirit. Discover how learning to listen, creating space for stillness, and walking in obedience can help us hear God more clearly and live transformed lives.

In this message we look at the opening of John’s Gospel and the breathtaking claim that “the Word became flesh and made His home among us.” God has always been committed to dwelling with His people, and Jesus is the ultimate fulfilment of that promise. We unpack how Christ’s humanity assures us of three things: He understands our temptations, He understands our suffering, and He intercedes for us every day. Emmanuel isn’t distant — He is present, personal and powerfully involved in our lives.
