Join us as we kick of this Christmas season with an encouraging word from Pastor Ben Stuart! For many of us, this time of year amplifies the stresses of life and pushes us into deeper anxiety. How do we respond when stress seems to be taking over our lives? This week, Pastor Ben walks us through the story of Mary, the mother of Jesus, and show us how Mary's understanding of who God is gave her supernatural peace in the middle of a chaotic life. Key Verses // Luke 1:46-55—Do you feel frustrated by a pattern of personal failures, overwhelmed by a chaotic culture, or disillusioned by a lack of meaning in everyday life? Your struggles do not mean you’re doomed. They’re actually a sign that you are alive. Now it’s a question of whether you will struggle well. Pastor Ben's new book, Rest & War, is a field guide designed to equip you to walk elegantly through the battlefield of life. Rest & War is out now, order your copy today!https://www.restandwar.com/—Give towards what God is doing through Passion City Church: https://passioncitychurch.com/give-online—With Passion City Online you can join us every Sunday for gatherings at 9:30a + 11:30a! Join us at https://passioncitychurch.com/dcSubscribe to our Youtube channel to see more messages https://www.youtube.com/passioncitychurchdc—At Passion City Church, we believe that because God has displayed the ultimate sacrifice in Jesus, our response to that in worship must be extravagant. It is our privilege, and our created purpose, to reflect God’s Glory to Him through our praise, our sacrifice, and our song. Follow Passion City Church: https://www.instagram.com/passioncitydc/Follow Ben Stuart: https://www.instagram.com/ben_stuart_/Passion City Church is a Jesus church with locations in Atlanta and Washington D.C.  More info on Passion: https://passioncitychurch.com
