Today on Summit Life with J.D. Greer.

You think that your sin is bad. You think that you've messed things up.

You think that you're so guilty you can't be forgiven.

God said there's more power in my ability to forgive than there was in the word that I spoke

that caused the universe to spring into existence.

There is more power in my resurrection of Jesus from the dead and my ability to heal your life

than there was in anything that I have ever created. Welcome to Summit Life, the Bible Teaching Ministry of Pastor J.D. Greer.

As always, I'm your host Molly Vittevich.

Today as we conclude our short teaching series called Carols,

we're going to discuss the meaning behind the classic song

Hark the Herald Angels sing. And trust me, you'll never hear it the same way again.

And just like we did earlier this week, we want to share an actual performance of this Christmas Carol.

So make sure you stick around until the end of the broadcast as our summit worship team shares their rendition of this Christmas classic.

But let's begin right now with Pastor J.D.

and the teaching he originally preached on Christmas Eve. Let's turn to the book of

Luke as we begin.

My role this evening with you is basically to take just a few minutes and set up the very next carol that we're going to sing together and that carol is Hark the Herald Angels Sing.

Hark is a pretty old word.

It's a word that we don't use a lot

in normal conversation anymore,

but all it means is simply listen.

The writer of this Carol is telling us to pay attention and listen to something that he is afraid that we are going to miss.
