He is Greater

Churches across the county will once again be collaborating together in the “He is Greater...” campaign. Last year about 35 churches presented the same theme and series using the same Christmas texts. This year the focus is on “Who is HE?” The series will focus on the angelic names given to the baby that we celebrate at Christmas. The four advent Sundays leading up to our Christmas Eve service will be: He is Savior.... He is Christ .... He is Lord .... He is Jesus!

There is a website available at heisgreater.com that will list the churches participating in the collaborative series, resources available for family worship throughout advent, community outreaches and opportunities as well as resources for community group leaders. New “He is Greater” t-shirts will be available for this year in a holiday red at WBC in the month of November. The plan is to wear the shirts across the community starting Novemmber 28th - “Black Friday!” Last year more than 10,000 t-shirts with the logo were distributed across the 35 churches. As people wore the shirts, people asked questions and conversations were started. I walked into JCPenney’s close to Christmas wearing my “He is Greater..” t-shirt, and the saleswoman asked me, “I’ve seen those shirts around for weeks, what is all this about?” It was a great opportunity to share the true story of Christmas and its meaning. There will also be yard signs available that we would love to see covering our entire community.

This series allows us as churches across the county to stand shoulder to shoulder in collectively declaring at Christmas that Jesus is greater! Be a part of the Community-wide declaration!
