Reel Christmas- Week 4- Escaping the Ghost of Christmas Past

Reel Christmas- Week 4- Escaping the Ghost of Christmas Past

Humanity thrives on story-telling. Since the very beginning, families have gathered around to tell stories old and new. There's something special about the Christmas season that unites old and young: traditions, music, and (of course) movies. Children still watch It's a Wonderful Life and Charlie Brown's Christmas Special, even though their parents (and sometimes their grandparents) weren't alive when those were released. This Christmas season, we're going to lean into the fun, the nostalgia, and the joy of Christmas movies with our series Reel Christmas! Each week, we will engage with a theme from the movie and see how the Scriptures speak into that theme and into our lives. It's a series you won't want to miss.

Though they were free on the outside, they were still slaves on the inside.

“I am a slave.
I have no value.
I am worthless.”
Many of us are still believing we are something that God says we are not!
As long as your are focused on you- 
you will never be enough.
The only way to heal from shame is to move the focus from what I am not- to who Christ is!
Because of Christ, I am not _______________.

Instead, I am ________________!
You are not what you did. You are who Christ 
says you are!
