Christmas Week at Christ Reformed Church (December 21-27)

You are invited to join us as we gather for our annual Service of Lessons and Carols on Thursday, December 24 at 2:30 p.m.

This is a wonderful opportunity to hear the Scriptures read and proclaimed, and sing Christmas carols. What makes this service so rich is that the liturgy situates the birth of Christ against the backdrop of redemptive history. The incarnation is a key part of the creation-fall-redemption-consummation movement in scripture and the nine lessons illustrate that vividly.  Space is limited, so make your reservations early on the Christ Reformed Church website (via link at the top of the C-Ref website). 

The service will be live streamed and uploaded to the Christ Reformed YouTube Channel for later viewing:  Christ Reformed Church Lessons and Carols 2020

Sunday, December 27:  Worship services will be held outdoors in the courtyard at 9:00 a.m. and 10:30 a.m.  The 9:00 a.m. service will be live-streamed.  We will wrap up our time in the Gospel of Luke with Zechariah's "song" in Luke 1:57-80.  

Reservations are required each week so that we may prepare the outdoor space and maintain social-distancing.  To RSVP, go the Christ Reformed Church website (http://www.christreformed.org/) and follow the instructions for making a reservation.

Social distancing and face coverings are required.  If you have any Covid-19 like symptoms, or feel ill, please remain home and watch the live stream.

My Office Hours Interview with Scott Clark -- The Story of Christ Reformed

I was recently interviewed for Westminster Seminary California's "Office Hours" by my friend and colleague Dr. Scott Clark. We talk about the founding of Christ Reformed Church twenty-five years ago, my time as a student at Westminster Seminary California, and the rise and fall of the evangelical "buzz" in Orange County, California.
