“Embrace this season of Christmas as the homecoming that God intends for it to be.”
“Matthew West invites us in his book, Come Home For Christmas to "enter the Christmas season with the intention of returning our hearts to God and to embrace this season of Christmas as the homecoming that God intends for it to be. The story of Christmas calls us back to the heart (or the home) of what it means to be loved by God. No matter how far we wander from home, we are always welcome back into the arms of Jesus. Christmas is the story of God inviting us back to Him.”
"God was writing your name on an invitation."
“On that holy night in Bethlehem, God was writing your name on an invitation to eternal life – one that still stands today. The first Christmas is a story of God using imperfect circumstances to bring perfect forgiveness into the world. The story of that holy night is that God sought a relationship with us even in the midst of all our imperfections.”
"We serve a God who always sees the other side
of what we may see as hopeless."
Matthew West
Matthew continues, “This Christmas I have challenged you to say yes to God’s invitation home and offer that invitation to those who need a home. I have dared you to embrace the wonder, joy, healing, compassion and forgiveness that the Christ child brings this season. Jesus, the greatest gift, is the very thing that anchors us – He is the Source of our hope. We serve a God who always sees the other side of what we may see as hopeless.
"There is no darkness His light can’t shine through."
Matthew West
When you choose to come home for Christmas, there is no financial crisis, there is no diagnosis, there is no addiction, there is no broken relationship, there is no pain, there is nothing that can overcome the hope of Christ. There is no darkness His light can’t shine through. That beautiful gift born in Bethlehem is alive today and calling you to come home for Christmas… to come home to Him… to come home for good.”
