He chose us!

In part two of our Christmas series, we dive into "The Island of Misfit Toys" from the classic Rudolph movie to unpack a powerful truth: we are all uniquely chosen by God for a special purpose. Just like the misfit toys, life can sometimes make us feel like we don't fit in, but God sees our worth and potential. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 1:27-29, we see how God flips the script by choosing those who appear weak or foolish to reveal His greatness. You are not just another face in the crowd; you are chosen by design.
