    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 16, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,413 views

    Elizabeth was pregnant against all ’odds’. Mary was to become pregnant even though she was a virgin! What seems ’impossible’ in your life right now? What is God saying to your situation?

    “Nothing is impossible with God” (1:37). What is going on in your life right now which seems impossible to solve? What has happened, or what is happening at the moment which you think might be beyond or outside of God’s care and control? Is it one of these: Is it your children; a family member; a ...read more

     | 4,513 views

    We need to get sober for Christmas. We need to admit Jesus came to save sinners like us. He didn’t come just for people like drug dealers and dead beat parents. He came for mass murders and terrorists as well as nice people like you and me.

We need to admit Jesus came to save sinners like us. He didn’t come just for people like drug dealer ...read more

    We are still in the season of Advent, not Christmas. We can’t be ready for Christmas unless we prepare ourselves through Advent.

    Waiting for Christmas Luke 3:1-17 December 17, 2006 Back in the late 1980’s when I was pastor over at First UMC in Morocco, Indiana, I was approached by a gentleman from the congregation asking about my choice of hymns. “Why can’t we sing Christmas hymns?” It has been December for a couple of ...read more

    A look at the JOURNEY of the Wise Men. The gifts wait till Epiphany

    Contributed by Derek Melanson on Dec 19, 2006
    based on 44 ratings
     | 26,535 views

    God’s favour means He uses the ordinary, involves adversity, requires obedience, gives us purpose, and provides hope.

    Introduction We’ve all done someone a favour. And we’ve all asked for favours. We all have favourite foods, music, places to visit, etc. We talk about favourable weather and favourable circumstances. To use a negative example, some parents play favourites with their children. When we use these ...read more

    Contributed by Thomas Bowen on Dec 29, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,346 views

    Some people are prepaired for Christmas in an automatic sence and others never seem to be ready.

    Be Prepared Luke 21:25-36 Be prepared, the Boy Scout motto. When I was a scout, I took that motto seriously. It paid off several times. The time Doug Pine smacked into a pine tree and cut his eye. (coincidence not really, his life was full of unfortunate coincidences) I was right on the ...read more

    based on 21 ratings
     | 24,671 views

    Joy is a gift from God, is never experienced without challenges, and is something we are called upon to share.

    “An Impossible Joy” Luke 1: 39 – 45 Introduction A few weeks ago I heard on the news that there were impossibly huge line-ups as the new Sony Play Station came into stores. Some people apparently waited in line for days, even missing work to do so. Can you imagine doing this for a video game? And ...read more

  • The Olive: Exhaustion Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 2, 2003
    based on 61 ratings
     | 21,892 views

    How do we replenish our exhaustion? The world into which Jesus was born was spiritually weary. We too are worn out from conflict, moral uncertainty. God has acted to come among us and to give us power to become.

    “All ye, beneath life’s crushing load, whose forms are bending low, who toil along the climbing way, with painful steps and slow, Look now! for glad and golden hours come swiftly on the wing: O rest beside the weary road, and hear the angels sing!” You don’t have to look long to find examples ...read more

    based on 54 ratings
     | 4,103 views

    Christians celebrate a Festival of Lights at Christmas and the Jews have Hanukkah, both pictures of the Spirit of God shining out in a dark world - see picture of Menorah.

    FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS FOR JEWS AND CHRISTIANS This Christmas the lights in town and on houses have been better than ever. I expect you had Advent candles in church to remind you of the Christmas festival. But it’s not only Christians who celebrate with lights - the Jews do so as well. I’ve got ...read more

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Dec 1, 2002
    based on 77 ratings
     | 5,640 views

    "Bethlehem" means "house of bread", reminding us that Jesus is the Bread of Life.

    BETHLEHEM - THE HOUSE OF BREAD One of my favourite carols is "O little town of Bethlehem". Do you know what happened there? It’s where Jesus was born - a town not far from Jerusalem. And do you know what "Bethlehem" means? It’s "the house of bread". Jesus was born in Bethlehem - in a stable. ...read more
