    How should we prepare for the birthday of King Jesus? John the Baptist calls us to repentance, to preparing the way for him into our lives and making straight a highway into our hearts.

    [Sermon preached on 17 December 2017, 3rd Sunday in Advent / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] Every year again I am surprised how much time and energy goes into preparing for Christmas. So many things to do… and in the end so few things that really matter. The famous American author John Grisham wrote ...read more

    Christ deserves the first place in all things: in our lives, in our families, in our time, in our conversations, in our studies, in our mission and ministry, in our jobs and businesses, in our decisions, and in everything! I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

    INTRODUCTION (SECURE ATTENTION) & BACKGROUND OF THE PASSAGE: PRAY before starting the sermon. We live in a pluralistic society and thus presenting the uniqueness of Christ is a great challenge.

     | 4,348 views

    Baby Jesus in the manger looks so small. Yet this same moment is a miracle of salvation where absolute supremacy, authority, power, and the fullness of creation is embodied in this baby. We do not follow a small Jesus.

    It can be easy to lose our Jesus given identity because of temptation, physical weakness or lack of faith. Advent is a time to remember that the child in the manger is also the one seated at the right hand of God and he is able to identify fully with us – but is without sin.

    Message - Advent Miracles Hebrews 4:14-16 The Miracle of the Mediator Through our Advent series we have been considering the miracles which take place as a result of Jesus revealing Himself to the world in the flesh. A word that keeps coming through out of this series is “identity”. Who are we ...read more
