Teaching from Matthew 1–2, Luke 2, John 1, Romans 8, Hebrews 11, and Psalm 68, Apostle Mike reframes the Christmas story through the lens of discernment, faith, and confirmation. Just as the wise men recognized the star and showed up not for proof but for confirmation, this sermon reveals how God still confirms His truth today through the power and presence of the Holy Spirit.
This message explores:
🔥 Why Jesus did not come to argue God’s existence, but to embody it
🔥 How the Holy Spirit confirms what faith already believes
🔥 The difference between proof, opinion, and spiritual witness
🔥 Why church is meant to be a home for the lonely and searching
🔥 How God settles the solitary into family and spiritual covering
🔥 What it means to live as light in a deceptive and fractured world
🔥 Why faith may feel blurry but is still real and alive
With pastoral honesty, cultural awareness, and gospel clarity, Apostle Mike invites listeners to move beyond surface-level belief and into a living relationship with Jesus Christ. This Christmas Eve gathering culminates in a call to salvation, renewal, and spiritual reset as families across every V1 Church campus come together under the light of Christ.
The Christmas story is not just something to observe. It is something to encounter.
Jesus is real. His Spirit still speaks. And His light still shines.
