The Christmas season is officially upon us and everywhere we go we are surrounded by glittering lights, Christmas music and holiday decor. If you live anywhere in northeastern Oklahoma, Rhema Bible Church is a must-visit destination this time of year. They spare no expense as they decorate their facility with over 2 million glittering lights. It’s one of the best light displays in the state and it’s completely mesmerizing.
Take a look:
Rhema Bible Church has become famous statewide for their annual Christmas lights show. They started with 60,000 lights in 1982 and have continued to grow it year after year.

The Rhema campus is located at 1025 West Kenosha Street in Broken Arrow. You can drive around and never leave your car or there is ample parking to get out of your vehicle and walk the campus…including a light show with synchronized music.

I highly recommend you walk around and see the “Christmas tree forest” - featuring a 22-foot tree, including a five-foot star, surrounded by smaller, beautifully lit metal trees.

You also don’t want to miss a walk across the Rhema Park Bridge. It’s filled with thousands of vibrant lights and is the centerpiece for the whole display.

There are lots of lit pathways that will take you through the tree forest, around the pond and past many Christmas displays. Bring your camera along because there are fabulous photo-ops at every corner.

You’ll also find concessions stands selling hot chocolate, kettle corn, funnel cakes, and lighted toys.

Doesn’t Rhema look incredible! It’s always on my list of places to visit during the holiday season. If you’ve never been, I highly recommend it. It gets very busy on weekends, so plan for some extra time for traffic delays.
One of the best places to buy holiday decor, tree decorations or anything related to Christmas is at North Pole City in Oklahoma City. Check them out here.
