    Have you ever experienced theft? Something that is rightfully yours taken? This year, during Christmas, it is time to get those things back!

    Presence I. Introduction No one likes a thief at any time of the year but especially at Christmas. You have read or seen accounts of families who have lost everything at Christmas due to a thief breaking into home or car. All hope seems to be lost. It seems Christmas for all of its emphasis on ...read more

    Tonight we are going to look at the familiar story of the wise men coming to see baby Jesus. Although months after Christ’s birth, they share a place in historical first Christmas. From their part of this story we see how we need to celebrate Christmas.

    How to Celebrate Christmas - Get them talking: How does your family celebrate Christmas? - Christmas around the world Illustration: Replacement Santa Text: Matthew 2:1-12 The “wise men”, or Maji, were the ancient equivalent Jedi Knights – superb knowledge of math, science, astronomy, ...read more

    Three different responses to the news of Christ’s birth: (1) the Magi, passionately seeking Christ to worship Him; (2) King Herod, eager to get rid of Christ, do not want Him to sit on his throne; and (3) Jerusalem, apathetic to the prophecies rega

    Matt 2:1-12, 16-18 We see here 3 different responses to the news of the birth of Jesus Christ. • First, we see the Magi in a passionate search for the child Jesus. • Second, we have King Herod also eagerly seeking to find the child, but so that he could kill him. • And thirdly, we see the ...read more

    In this sermon, I use the classic Christmas movie Miracle on 34th Street to illustrate some important spiritual truths about the real identity of Jesus and how the story of Jesus is fact and not fiction.

    Introduction: A. Every year, I look forward to our special worship service on the Sunday before Christmas. 1. I hope and pray that you have a very happy and healthy Christmas holiday filled with much joy and peace. 2.

    "Mary's Christmas"

     | 4,723 views

    When we look back at the life of Mary I see 2 extreme points of view that have surfaced. 1. Many believers have chosen to worship Mary. 2. Others have chosen to completely ignore Mary. The scripture does not support either approach.

    Mary’s Christmas Luke 1:26-38 Most of us recognize that Christmas can actually be one of the most stressful times of the year. For pastors and their families things do not usually slow down—instead things just get busier. For many in the church and community there are those feeling ...read more

    The Forgotten Tree

    Contributed by John Gaston on Dec 15, 2021
     | 3,264 views

    The Christmas Tree has become the main symbol of Christmas; baby Jesus has little connection to it. God's Christmas Tree is the Cross of Calvary. God hung His gift on it -- His Son Jesus. I put up a 5-ft. cross with Christmas lights on it.

    THE FORGOTTEN TREE 1 Pet. 2:24 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. In one Dennis the Menace cartoon, Dennis rushes into the living room. His mother is standing there with her mouth open and Dennis is holding a large box. 2. He announces with a loud voice, “We’d better tell Santa Claus to forget about ...read more

    Our expectations for Christmas must be diferent than others.

    When John heard in prison what Christ was doing, he sent his disciples to ask him, “Are you the one who was to come, or should we expect someone else?” Jesus replied, “Go back and report to John what you hear and see: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cured, the ...read more

    The story of the shepherds teaches us what Christmas is really all about.

    One night many years ago, a shepherd named Benjamin was keeping watch over his flock. It was a night that began like every other. Little did he know that this night would change his life forever. The sky was unusually clear that evening. Benjamin never grew tired of looking at the night sky. ...read more
