Many churches mistake rebranding for revitalization. Fresh paint, new logos, and modern marketing can make things look better, but they cannot heal what is broken. True revitalization begins with repentance, grows through relationship, and leads to renewal. Change the culture before you change the carpet.

Today, we celebrate that the Messiah has come, we look back and know with certainty that He has come. Because we know He has come and was victorious, we have “strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow.” When the storms come we can face them with confidence because we know the beauty which lies beyond the storms.
