    1st in the Advent Series "The Prophets Foretold." Pinpoints Jesus as the only one who fulfills the prophecies.

    The One and Only Years ago a hydroelectric dam was to be built across a valley in Maine. The people in the town were to be relocated and the town itself submerged. During the time between the initial decision and the completion of the dam, the town, which had once been well-kept, fell into ...read more

    Christmas - Risking Your Reputation By Obeying God!

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 15, 2007
     | 2,700 views

    Joseph had made a biblical, lawful and compassionate decision to quietly divorce Mary, but obeying God was more important to him than protecting his reputation. How about you?

    Joseph was a “righteous man” (1:19). He knew what was right and he was ready to act upon it. Joseph was engaged to Mary but they were not yet living together (1:18) and of course that immediately sounds strange to most 21st century people. Engaged but not living together! Yet there is even more to ...read more

    We do a lot to get ready for the coming of Christmas. Shouldn’t we do more to get ready for the coming of Jesus?

    Getting Ready For Christ to Come Mark 1:1-8 Introduction: How do you get ready for Christmas? Lots of folk start by buying a tree and decorating it. I’ve noticed retailers starting earlier and earlier. This used to it was after Thanksgiving (Macy’s parade being the kick-off) and then it began ...read more

    Apostates Hijack The Messiah's Arrival To Whitewash Criminal Mayhem

    The TransFORM network is a “progressive community formation network.” Right from the get go, anyone with a lick of sense can tell that his outfit isn't playing with a full theological deck.

    "Peace on Earth" is illustrated through God’s reign in Isaiah 52:7-10 as seen through: 1) The Peaceful Reign (Isaiah 52:7), 2) The Peaceful Return (Isaiah 52:8-9), 3) The Peaceful Reveal (Isaiah 52:10)

    How focusing on Christ cheers me up even in the midst of the mess of life.

    "I have told you this, so that you might have peace in your hearts because of me. While you are in the world you will have to suffer. But CHEER UP! I have defeated the world!

    based on 54 ratings
     | 8,125 views

    We sing about these wise men, and then rarely act like wise men ourselves? What can we learn from them?

    IN MANY NATIVITY SCENES COMMEMORATING THE BIRTH OF JESUS ONE CAN ALWAYS CATCH A GLIMPSE OF “THE WISE MEN”. WE SEE THEM REPRESENTED ON CHRISTMAS CARDS, WE HEAR AND SING SONGS SUNG ABOUT THEM AND THEIR COURAGEOUS JOURNEY. MOST HOLIDAY SCENARIOS SUGGEST THAT THESE MEN (WHO TRADITION SAYS ...read more

    This sermon speaks of the love that came to us through Christ’s birth.

    Advent IV – Love Luke 2: 25-38 “Hush-a-bye, lullaby. Hush your weeping, little baby,” the mother sang. And in her tear-filled eyes one would see the love Mary felt for her baby son, this Child of Love. Through this Holy Child, God transcended all time and space, planned a way to come and ...read more

    Joseph was asked to believe the impossible. This Christmas, we are asked to do the same.

    Matthew 1:18-25 Believing the Impossible (communion this Sunday) Is it good or bad to be skeptical? Sometimes, it’s good, isn’t it? When you receive an email from someone you don’t know, and that someone says to you that they want to help you, but they need some information. If you could ...read more

     | 10,979 views

    As we prepare for our Lord’s birth among us, we are confronted with God’s realtiy: Things are not always what they seem. God’s ways are not teh world’s ways.

    Things Are Not What They Seem Dear friends in Christ, grace and peace to you from God our Father and from our Lord and Savior Jesus, the Christ. Amen. After 2000 years of listening to the Christmas story, it’s easy for us hear it as a familiar and sentimental tale, imagining quiet and serene ...read more

    A Painful Privilege

    Contributed by Scott Carmer on Dec 13, 2005

     | 5,752 views

    Motherhood for Mary was a painful privilege. It was a privilege for her to be chosen to bear the Son of God, but so very painful to have to witness his death.

    A Painful Privilege I Thessalonians 5:16-24 Luke 1:46-55 Advent 3 December 11, 2005 I read a very interesting comment about motherhood the other day. One commentator said that motherhood is a painful privilege. I guess that it is easy for me to say, being a man, but I like that. A painful ...read more
