It’s easy to feel distant from God. Sometimes, the feelings come in response to problems in our lives. Other times, the problems are in our own hearts. This message looks at the promise of Immanuel that was given to people who had hit rock bottom. They felt a million miles from God and wondered whether they would ever feel close to Him again.
Ezekiel 37:24-28

This message looks at the promise of the gospel, particularly for a new generation looking for hope.
Romans 6:23
As we prepare for our first Christmas in lockdown, most of us have put our hope in a vaccine or a better year or at least the end of the rising case counts and restrictions we’re facing now. Jerusalem faced a lockdown in its history as the Assyrian army besieged the city. God gave them a Christmas promise that pointed to a greater hope than the end of their isolation. This promise can give us hope, too.
