5Ws and 1H

When depicting any story, the first question any journalist asks is typically: who is my audience? Next the journalist gives the reader the WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHY, WHERE and HOW – or the 5Ws and 1H. Join us this Christmas Eve as Pastor Johann narrates the real story and events surrounding the birth of Jesus - with real times in history, actual places, and real people. The Christmas story, and the birth of Jesus, highlights less than ideal situations - with a long trip to Bethlehem and no lodging, but our God often works in less-than-ideal situations. In fact, God shines in these moments, bringing those without a relationship with Jesus to faith. The Christmas story results in glory to God and peace to us, resulting in the salvation that comes through Jesus as a gift from God. Because of Christmas, we do not have to live in fear. We live in freedom and hope, with love and faith upon His righteous life.
