About this sermon

As we enter the Christmas season, Pastor J.D. tells the story of Anna and Simeon, two of the first people to meet Jesus. Unlike so many others who missed Jesus, Anna and Simeon were able to recognize the unexpected majesty of the newborn King. Their story raises the question for us: Will we see Jesus this Christmas? -- New to the Summit? Want to get more involved? Looking for a Virtual Group or a Ministry Team?
