    A look at the "wise men" and what we can learn today as modern wise men and women

    I guess that male bashing is the order of the day in some circles and now it’s reached even to the three wise men. Recently, I saw something that suggested that if the wise men had been women, things would have been different and better. First, if the wise men had been women, they ...read more

    This time of year, we get excited and touched by Baby Jesus in a cradle but you can’t separate the cradle from the cross. This gift of Jesus comes with a sacrificial cost. A lot of us understand the cradle but we fail to connect the cradle with the cross.

    The Gift with a Cost Isaiah 53:1-12 Christmas has become the #1 self-focused consumer day in America. 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
