    The premise of this sermon is that sometimes there is much more disappointment in our hearts than hope! Advent’s message through the Prophet Isaiah is that hope is hidden deep within us, safe and secure, and is ready to burst forth in renewed life.

    Advent II- Hope It was just this word of hope the people desperately needed to hear--the words that Isaiah wrote about the dry-looking stump with a green shoot growing out of it.

    Isaiah the prophet communicated the prophecy about Immanuel to Ahaz. An angel communicated the promise of Jesus to Joseph. Ahaz responded in fear. Joseph responded in trust.

    A first-person narrative of Zechariah's experience before the angel Gabriel.

    I resent a little your pastor’s description of me in the bulletin. “Zechariah the Silent”? It’s true, for nine months I was unable to croak out a single “Shalom!” to those I passed on the street. But ever since God opened my mouth again I have not stopped ...read more

    Elizabeth's humble faith inspires us to rejoice loudly at Jesus' coming.

    Every crowd has one. He or she is the one who works the room pumping the hands of strangers and slapping the backs of old friends.

It may be due to our pride, or a principle, or we are angry, or we just can’t accept a different perspective. We know something is wrong, ...read more
