     | 163 views

    God’s presence with us in life’s darkest valleys brings comfort, courage, and guidance, assuring us we are never alone, no matter the circumstance.

    Some valleys look like hospital rooms with the blinds half-open and the clock moving too slowly. Some valleys sound like the phone call no one wants or the silence after the door shuts. Some valleys feel like midnight at noon—shadows stretching across the heart, courage feeling thin, hope feeling ...read more

    It’s considered impolite to attend a party without bringing a gift for the host or honoree. We should feel honored to receive an invitation to attend. Therefore, it’s extremely important that we bring the right gifts to the honoree.

    Today, we gather to discuss the significance of "The Ultimate Birthday Celebration." It is a time-honored tradition for people around the world, both believers and non-believers, to celebrate on December 25th. While the exact date of Jesus Christ's birth is not mentioned in the Bible, we celebrate ...read more

    Jesus was sent on mission by the Father. In like manner, the Son of God sends His disciples on mission. And He ensures we will succeed in this mission by giving us His Spirit.

    A Christmas Eve sermon for a service that includes communion and a candlelight "Silent Night"
