What Child is this? Mary must have wondered as she held Him that first night, and it’s the question we’ll explore together this Advent. He’s the Servant and the King, the Lamb and the Lion. He’s the One who came as a baby and will come again in glory. Invite your family and neighbors to experience the wonder of Christmas with us as we worship Emmanuel, God with us.
Bring the whole family on Sunday, December 6, from 5:00 to 7:30 p.m. for A Brentwood Christmas, our annual community celebration of the season. Walk through the story of Jesus’ birth, enjoy festive activities for all ages, and celebrate the wonder of Christmas together with friends and neighbors.

It’s easy to enjoy your kids when everything is going well, but what about when they’re pushing boundaries, making poor choices, or disobeying again? In this episode of Purposeful Family, Linc and Elizabeth have an honest conversation about moving toward your kids when parenting is hard, instead of pulling away. Drawing on 1 Corinthians 13:4–7 and Romans 5:8, they talk about trading behavior management for real relationship, the lies that keep us stuck (I’m overwhelmed, I’m a terrible parent, if we can just get to graduation), and the difference between a child who believes “I’m a mistake” and one who knows “I make mistakes.” Then they share where to begin: entering your kids’ mess the way God entered ours, refusing to weaponize their failures, praying before you try to fix anything, and building the kind of relationship that makes your kids want to run to you, not from you.
In this week’s episode of Sermon Notes, Jay Strother and Brian Ball dig into what we didn’t have time to cover in Revelation 19 on Sunday, from the bride’s gift of fine linen to the sword that comes from Jesus’ mouth. Then they take on one of Revelation’s most debated questions: the millennium in Revelation 20.
Whatever your view of the end times, this conversation will help you hold your convictions with humility and live with obedience and watchfulness, because Jesus has already won.
