Living Christmas Everyday with Pastor Taylor Simpson

In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Pastor Taylor Simpson, Lead Pastor of New Song Church in Bellingham, WA. Taylor shares his passion for building a praying church and leading with authenticity. Together, we explore how to experience Immanuel—God with us—not just during the Christmas season but 365 days a year. Taylor challenges the idea of keeping Christmas as a nostalgic, one-time celebration and instead invites us to step into a deeper, more vibrant relationship with Christ throughout every season of life. As a husband, father, and Jesus follower, Taylor offers practical insights on how to invite Christ into your daily life with honesty and intention. Whether you're navigating family life, pursuing your faith, or longing for a more prayerful connection with God, this conversation will leave you inspired to live out the message of Immanuel every day. What We Discuss: Taylor’s journey as a pastor, husband, and dad, and how his life shapes his ministry. How nostalgia around Christmas can limit our faith journey. Practical ways to engage with the presence of Christ year-round. Building a life of prayer and authenticity in a busy, modern world. Taylor’s insights on vulnerability and why it’s vital in cultivating a deep relationship with God.
