Pushing back the darkness that God does not dwell inside our universe is what Christmas Eve is all about. We all gather to swear, damn, and curse back the darkness of enlightenment that tells us there is nothing outside the frame of this world. That there is no God that still speaks. We all struggle and fight to push back the darkness of doubt, unbelief, and meaninglessness. Join Pastor Mark in his Christmas Eve message that is surrounded by the image of Carvaggio’s 1609 painting of the nativity and see if you are looking low enough to find the God that became flesh and dwelt among us and pushed back the darkness with His light.
