    Christmas is filled with details large and small, but the important detail is God's incredible love in Jesus Christ who came to save us.

    One of my childhood Christmas highlights was putting up the crèche. I don’t know why my Norwegian family called the nativity set by its French name, but we did. First we would put the wooden framework in place. In back of it was a music box which we wound to play a tired version of ...read more

    God's gift of love in the person of His Son is an example of how we are to love others.

    This morning we are going to begin by playing a little game called “Name That Christmas Song.” I’ll read a phrase from a well-known holiday song, and you try to “name that tune”: • We’re snuggled up together like two birds of a feather would be. (“Sleigh Ride”) • When we finally kiss goodnight, ...read more

    Jeremiah predicted that a righteous branch would come and bring hope inn the midst of a hopeless situation

    A Righteous Branch Jeremiah 33:14-16 12-04-2022 Advent I didn’t grow up with advent like many of you did. In fact, for years after working retail at Christmastime, I was a pretty big Scrooge.

     | 8,625 views

    On Judgment Day, we will be called on to give a personal report to God. That report will be based on the choices we make here and now. We can make any changes we want to here and now. It will be too late to make them when we stand before God.

    Have you ever been afraid to use your gifts, talents or skills? Have you ever thought that your skills and talents were not appreciated by other people? If the answer to either one or both of these questions is “yes”, then you can probably sympathize with the third slave on the Parable ...read more

    We experience times of joy when we know God is with us.

    Intro: Joy. Can you think of a time of joy? In preparation for this morning, our third week of Advent, as we spend this season in expectancy and preparation and waiting, I wonder what we recognize as joy.

    The prophecies of Isaiah were fulfilled in the mission and work of Jesus--and more than fulfilled.

    Monday of the 2nd Week in Advent 2020 Scholars tell us that the Book of Isaiah appears from language and tone to have three parts, written with the words of the prophet, living late in the life of the kingdom of Judea.

    Good Things Come To Those Who Wait

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jul 9, 2015
     | 9,340 views

    When we receive the bread and wine during Holy Communion, we are holding Christ’s very body and blood, which was nailed to the cross and poured out for our forgiveness. We have seen it with our own eyes and felt it with our own hands and on our tongues.

    Have you ever heard of the old saying, “Good things come to those who wait”? If so, the story of Simeon, Anna and the baby Jesus in the temple in Lune 2:22-40 is a good example. The coming of Christ involved all manner of waiting on God. A young maiden, a dying man and an old widow all ...read more

    Joseph’s part in the Christmas story exemplifies a new kind of righteousness.

    In nativity scenes he stands silently next to the manger in which the baby Jesus is placed. His name is Joseph and some might think that he plays an unimportant role in the Christmas story. In fact, he is not even given a single line to speak! Should we neglect Joseph? Should we skip Joseph’s ...read more
