Christmas Eve Candlelight Service From The Gospel of John

In near total darkness, with very low candlelight on this 12-24-13, Rev. Jim Hilton, our Pastor, called for traditional stories, told one himself, read another to all of us and preached the old, old story in a very new way at the quintessential country church. It was, indeed, a night to remember. The photos are fairly clear, the audio is good, but you will need night vision glasses for the video link (down below the photos):

John 1:1-5

New International Version (NIV)

The Word Became Flesh

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome[a] it.
