The Hope of Hanukkah
Thursday, December 10 at 8:00 – 8:30 PM

Veiled in Flesh: The Christ of Christmas
Saturday, December 12 from 4:00 – 5:00 PM
What comes to mind when you think about God? Infinite. He’s everywhere. He fills the whole universe. But on that first Christmas the God who is everywhere became veiled in flesh in the person of our Lord Jesus Christ. On Haven Today’s Christmas Special, “Veiled in Flesh: The Christ of Christmas,” Charles Morris invites you to consider this great mystery as you celebrate the greatest gift of all.

Saturday, December 19 from 4:00 – 5:00 PM
Join Dave Frey from the Sidewalk Prophets as he takes you on a musical journey featuring Christmas songs from all of your favorites including Francesca Battistelli, for King & Country, Natalie Grant, We Are Messengers, Big Daddy Weave, Sidewalk Prophets and more. You’ll hear your favorite familiar artists sharing holiday traditions special behind the song moments and walks down memory lane.
A Christmas Carol
Sunday, December 20 from 2:00 – 4:00 PM
Charles Dickens was just 12 years old when he saw firsthand the devastating effects of child labor. He never forgot those images. In 1843 he wrote a pamphlet titled: “An Appeal to the People of England, on Behalf of the Poor Man’s Child.” It became the story of Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol.” Focus on the Family Radio Theater brings to life the story of miserly Scrooge who in one momentous night is confronted by his own lack of compassion – and given the opportunity to change not only his life but others too! It’s a message that defines the spirit of the season of Christ’s birth, of His loving compassion!

The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, on them has light shone. . . . For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end, on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from this time forth and forevermore. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will do this.
Isaiah 9:2, 6-7
