    THE SONG OF ELIZABETH. Luke 1:39-45. The angel Gabriel told the virgin Mary that her hitherto barren cousin Elizabeth was pregnant, because “with God, nothing is impossible” (Luke 1:37).

    CHRISTMAS IN ISAIAH. 1. Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23. “Behold the virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and call His name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, ‘with us the God’.” There are those in the church today - in its hierarchy, and teaching in its seminaries - who want us to think that ...read more

    The Hope Of Redemption

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 19, 2018
     | 5,974 views

    The Hope of our souls arrived for us all in the person of Jesus Christ, God’s own Son. God did in fact answer Isaiah’s plea to "pull the Heavens apart and come down to us;" for the Heaven’s themselves were rendered to make possible the birth of Christ.

    The Hope of Redemption Isaiah 64:1-9 Today we celebrate the Hope that Jesus fulfilled when He was born to be our Redeemer. Redeemed has taken on a whole new meaning in our day and age of Pawn Shops and Discount stores. If you happen to be a civil servant, teacher or a business owner you might ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,276 views

    The third week in advent looks at the shepherds and this message looks at how the Shepherds experience mirrors our Christian experience.

    Go Tell It On the Mountain It wasn’t the world’s oldest profession but it was close! I mean you know what the world’s oldest profession is right? That’s right, farming. Adam and Eve had two sons, Cain the oldest was a farmer, thus making that the world’s oldest profession. What were you ...read more

    Welcome The King Of Glory!

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Nov 17, 2025
     | 256 views

    As we begin another Advent season let’s turn our thoughts to a portion of God’s Word that will guide us in our preparation for Christmas. Psalm 24 will also provide us with correct expectations for our celebration of Jesus’ birth.

    Preparation. Expectation. From today until the “big day” in December those are the two things most of us will be experiencing. If we are adults, we will probably put some time into preparing for Christmas. Maybe we have already invested a few hours in the upcoming holiday. Many of us did that ...read more

    An advent series focused on our expectations at the Christmas season.

    Christmas Expectations! What Difference Does Christmas Make Luke 1:46-55 December 2, 2018 It feels so strange for me to think that the Christmas season has officially begun.

    His Birthday Wish

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jan 9, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,404 views

    I believe Jesus’ birthday wish would be that the world will know why He has come. Do you really know the love and sacrifice behind this gift?

    We have our birthday wishes, but what would Jesus wish for on His birthday? What do you think He would really want? • To have a party where there are lots of food? A great time of feasting? A year-end holiday filled with fun and joy? Lots of presents? • Or do you think He would really want ...read more

    Jesus' Resurrection: Miracle Or Malarkey?

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Apr 5, 2015
     | 4,995 views

    Jesus’ resurrection has been a topic of debate from the time it happened all the way up to now. We as Christians believe in the resurrection but is there any evidence to support it? Can a good argument be made to show it actually happened? Let’s find out.

    JESUS’ RESURRECTION: MIRACLE OR MALARKEY? INTRODUCTION: Jesus’ resurrection has been a topic of debate from the time it happened all the way up to now. For some, Jesus coming back from the dead seems too impossible. Street magician David Blaine was asked what he considered to be the ...read more

    Word Play Series

    Contributed by Darryl Klassen on Dec 10, 2008
     | 3,263 views

    While most Nativity plays at our SS Christmas programs focus on Matthew and Luke, this Word Play is found in John. It tells the story of Jesus’ birth from Heaven’s point of view.

    WORD PLAY One of the great highlights of the Advent season is watching our Sunday School students re-enact the Nativity. I remember as a child myself how on Christmas Eve we would have our Sunday School program, receive our goodie bags and go home to open presents. The Nativity play was a central ...read more

     | 5,767 views

    This message traces our ancestry in Adam and being in Christ. And asks the question who are we in? The 1st or 2nd Adam? How much more is there in Christ.

    8th in long series on Joshua. 1st of 2 sermons on mass circumcision in ch.5. This deals with cutting the sin out of our lives, execution-style.
