Be the One Who Stops.
“But a Samaritan, who was on a journey, came upon him; and when he saw him, he felt compassion.”
— Luke 10:33 NASB
Hope for the Holidays
Hope for the Holidays exists to meet a need and spread joy. For a family stretched thin, Christmas can be the heaviest season of the year, and no mom or dad should have to wonder whether there will be anything under the tree.
Most people walk past. The Samaritan stopped, cared for the man, and brought him to an inn where he would be looked after. This Christmas, Word of Life gets to be that inn: helping parents choose gifts for their kids, wrapping every one, and praying over every family who walks through our doors.
