Take Away the Tinsel

Dec 21, 2025    Pastor Todd Bishop



What is the real meaning of Christmas?

In this Christmas sermon, we strip away tradition, distractions, and cultural “tinsel” to reveal the powerful truth behind the season: Christmas is about Jesus.

This message is for Christians, skeptics, and anyone searching for hope, reminding us that God often shows up in ordinary moments—and that miracles don’t always look like miracles at first.


Jesus didn’t come wrapped in comfort or religious ceremony.

He came humbly—born in a manger—God with us (Immanuel).

When you take away the tinsel, what’s left is still life-changing.


You’ll learn:

Why Christmas traditions can distract us from biblical truth

How Jesus came in humility to bring abundant life

What the Bible really says about the Christmas story

Why miracles often look ordinary before they look miraculous

How Jesus is still the greatest gift—for believers and non-believers alike

Whether you follow Jesus closely, feel distant from faith, or are just curious—this message will encourage you, challenge tradition, and point you back to hope.



👉 Take away the tinsel—and rediscover the heart of Christmas.
