2025 Christmas Eve Under the Stars
Our annual Christmas Eve service outside under the stars. Join us for this time of worship and a candlelight service.
Chatting Around the Christmas Tree (ep 13) – Confessions of a Christmas Eve Wrapper
The countdown is finally over—it’s Christmas Eve! Join the Church @ 434 staff as we celebrate the night before Christmas with laughter, memories of “unconventional” gift wrapping, and the excitement of what’s under the tree tomorrow morning.
Most importantly, we take a moment to reflect on the greatest gift ever given: the first Christmas. We hope your holiday is filled with useful gifts, great joy, and the love of God.
Merry Christmas from all of us at The Church @ 434!

Chatting Around the Christmas Tree (ep 12) – Christmas Dinner is WRONG. Here’s What We’d Eat Instead
Welcome back to “Chatting Around the Christmas Tree!” Today, we’re putting the staff on the spot with a question that gets to the heart (and the stomach) of the holidays: If you could make any dish an official Christmas staple, what would it be?
Join us for a fun conversation about the foods that remind us of home, the traditions our adult kids still demand, and why Santa might actually prefer a chocolate-covered bowl of ice cream over cookies.
We love sharing these moments of our lives with you as we count down to the second-best Christmas ever!

Chatting Around the Christmas Tree (ep 11) – What’s Your Secret Favorite Holiday Movie?
We all have that one Christmas movie we love but are a little embarrassed to admit to. Today, the Church @ 434 staff is getting vulnerable! From “mushy” Hallmark romances and Bill Murray’s irreverent classics to Muppets and “shoot-em-up” holiday heists, we’re revealing the movies that make our holiday list (even if we watch them alone with a moose cup of eggnog).
What is YOUR secret Christmas movie? The one you don’t want anyone to know you like?

Christmas Shoppe Series
Step into the “Christmas Shoppe” this holiday season! In this four-week series, we will visit a different themed shop each Sunday to connect everyday festive experiences with the deeper truths of our faith. From the warmth of the Coffee Shoppe to the wonder of the Toy Shoppe, the wisdom of the Book Shoppe, and the generosity of the Candy Shoppe, we will explore how the sights and sounds of the season point us toward community, joy, and the ultimate gift of God’s love through Jesus Christ.
