CHRISTMAS FOR MISFITS

Many people think that before they can come to church and follow Jesus, they must first get their life in order. But Jesus never says that. In fact, Jesus came from a long line of misfits and he himself was a misfit – rejected, misunderstood, mistreated. Jesus came for imperfect people, the broken, the outcast, for those who don’t fit in, for you and for me. At Christmas, we celebrate Jesus who came for the misfits, to rescue and redeem us, that we would become children of God.
