    This is the second sermon in an Advent series for Advent 2019. In this sermon we look at Jesus being the light of the world and what that means.

It’s so interesting that Good Friday leads into Easter and Black Friday leads us into the Christmas holidays. The church needs to lead a movement of conspiracy to reclaim Christmas from ...read more
