    Was that first tree in the Garden a mistake, or always a part of the plan

    Introduction There have been some big changes in our sanctuary since last Sunday. What catches your attention the most? For some it is the glow of the advent wreath candles, or the arrangements in the windows but for me, hands down, it’s the tree. For my money there is nothing like a tree. When ...read more

    Advent. It is hard to do an orignial John the Baptist advent sermon isn’t it? I give it a go. Our life circumstances do not determine the validty of who Jesus is. Also, John 1:6-9, 15-16,19-23.

    There are starting to be more movies with biblical themes coming out – the Nativity is the latest. I was thinking…Disney Studios might jump on the bandwagon and produce a biblically oriented film. I think there are many stories they could choose from….but you know Disney has a habit of changing the ...read more

    To truly recognize Jesus we need to: Identify who Jesus is; Acknowledge who Jesus is; Approve of who Jesus is; and Give Tribute to Jesus, for who he is.

    He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. The world did not recognize him. For us as Americans when we use the word recognize, we generally use it in the sense of identification. “I was driving to Costco and this quickly car passed me up. I ...read more

    Love is a word that is used in so many ways that perhaps we have lost sight of the depth of it’s meaning. In the last few hours or days many of us may have said something like, ‘I love my spouse. I love my morning cup of coffee. I love my dog. I love hock

    December 20, 2009 – Love In my search for some stories and thoughts for today’s message, I came across these thoughts from a former pastor in Texas…thoughts about Christmas, and what it means to people in different situations and in different places. Maybe this will remind us ...read more
