God so loved the world that He gave His only son—and this Christmas Eve,
we're creating space for you to experience that love in a way that feels just right. 
This isn't just another Christmas service—it's a chance to be part of something real. We're a community that welcomes everyone exactly as they are, where families feel at home, and where the message of God's love actually breaks through all the holiday noise.
Come as you are. Bring who you love.
Experience a Christmas Eve that reminds you why this story still matters.

Gem City Church Collective
Advent Devotional

Over the next few weeks, we're inviting you into daily moments of reflection that will help you experience this love more deeply. This devotional brings together voices from across the Gem City Church Collective. You'll hear from people at different campuses, each sharing how they've encountered God's extraordinary love in ordinary moments. These aren't polished reflections from distant experts—they're honest stories from your neighbors in faith, walking the same roads you walk. Printed devotionals will be available at the Next Steps Hub on Dec 8th.
