Reach Church

Why does Reach exist? We exist to love and be loved by Jesus. And we’re inviting everyone to know Him, become like Him, and join Him as He makes all things new. In this message, we'll walk through each movement of this mission—exploring how Jesus' love for us overflows into invitation, transformation, and participation in His kingdom work in the Northwest and beyond.

What would it look like for the Northwest to look like Heaven? This message casts a vision of God’s Kingdom—alive, advancing, and present—right where we live, and asks one defining question: Where do you want to see the Kingdom happen in 2026?

At the climax of human history, God arrives not with spectacle but with startling humility. Jesus is born into the ordinary rhythms of empire, travel, and obscurity—yet announced by angels and received by shepherds. This is the beginning of a story that honors the lowly, dignifies the overlooked, and reveals a God who comes down in personal, loving pursuit of his people.

Mary’s Magnificat is the first and most famous Christmas carol. But before she sings this song, Mary journeys from courage to worship, from submission to joy—and the catalyst is Spirit-filled community. This is the story of how two expectant women, filled with the Holy Spirit, announce the dawn of redemption in Jesus the Messiah.

The good news of Jesus begins with an angelic visit to an ordinary girl in an unremarkable town. But the message Mary received was nothing short of extraordinary; a profound proclamation that the King of Heaven is coming close.
