Merry Christmas to you and your families! I’m here with Mariah Ballweber and we're so happy that you are joining in today. Many people know the Santa Clause as we celebrate in this day and age, but many don’t actually know the beautiful story of the man behind the fluffy white beard, St. Nicholas. We want to share his story of generosity, miracles, power, and the life of defiance against impossibilities that he demonstrated in response to being a child of God.

Tweetable Quotes:
“I think one of the keys to miracles is: one whatever He says, you do it. Two is knowing what you have; that you have the power of God - the power that raised Jesus Christ from the grave, you have that inside of you.” - Mariah Ballweber
“We are not moved by what seems impossible, everything is possible to us who believe… that’s in the DNA of those who live in the Spirit.” - Sandy James
“We want to be freedom fighters, we want to stand up for who we are in Christ, we want to stand up for the rights that we’re given by God, and stand up for the truth.” - Mariah Ballweber
