As the holiday season approaches, many of us look forward to celebrating with family, friends, and community. Yet, for some, this time of year can be a reminder of heartache and disappointment. If you’ve ever felt like your joy has been stolen during Christmas, we invite you to join us at Cornerstone Community Church as we explore the beloved story of the Grinch—a tale that speaks to the heart of our struggles and the hope of redemption.

The Grinch, with his cold heart and grumpy demeanor, reminds us that even the most hardened hearts can be softened. Just as he initially sought to steal Christmas from Whoville, we too can sometimes feel like the joy of the season is out of reach. Whether it’s the weight of past hurts or the pressures of modern life, it’s easy to feel like we’re living in a gray world when the holiday lights are shining bright. But here’s the beauty of the Grinch’s story: we discover that Christmas is not just about presents or decorations, but about the unconditional love that was given to all of us with the birth of Jesus. As the Grinch’s heart grows three sizes, we are reminded that transformation is possible for all of us—no matter how far we feel from joy or connection
