Presents are great. People are better. But the person who came down from heaven is THE best gift.

That's the big idea behind Pastor Mike's new sermon series, "Best Gifts Ever." Dig deep with Pastor Mike and Amber Albee Swenson as they give a sneak peek into this series and cover a wide range of topics including why it's important for families to read the Bible together, why church is best when we're at our worst, and how Pastor Mike deftly slipped in a new slang word while talking to an auditorium of high schoolers.

Pastor Mike also mentions this month's $350,000 Challenge Grant! That means your gift to Time of Grace will have TWICE the impact to help take our messages, devotions, podcasts, and resources to more people around the world in the new year. As a thank-you for your gift to the Challenge Grant, you can receive "The Basics," a book Pastor Mike wrote to help share the hope of Jesus with those who don't know Jesus.
