The Gift Isn’t the Key. It’s the Relationship.

Trevor Hersey

We all know what Jesus did. We sing about it, celebrate it, and build our faith around it. But Isaiah 9 invites us to something deeper. This message shifts the focus from what Jesus accomplished to who Jesus is, because knowing what He did answers salvation, but knowing who He is answers trust.


In this Christmas message, we unpack the powerful names given to Jesus in Isaiah 9:6 and discover how He is not only our Savior, but our Wonderful Counselor who leads us, our Mighty God who is present in every detail, our Everlasting Father who never leaves, and our Prince of Peace who brings wholeness in the middle of real life. This is an invitation to stop settling for a gift without a guide, and to start walking daily with the One who came near.
