    Jesus comes in the wilderness of our lives. He makes a way where there seems to be no way. And that is where his followers are called to be: in the "wild-ness" and brokenness of people’s lives showing the love and mercy of God.

    As we consider all the things that must have been going through Joseph’s mind before the birth of Jesus, we ask ourselves: "What Would Joseph Do?" I. About a pregnant fiancee? II. About an angelic visit?

    Advent 4 Matthew 1:18-25 I have a confession to make. What I am about to tell you is not something that I’m proud of, but it is true, and I feel you should know about it.

    A 4th look at standing firm in our faith.

    Stand Firm - Part 4 June 9, 2019 As you read the gospel of John, in chapter 16, Jesus tells the disciples that people will be against them.

    A man was watching a wood carver carve a six foot bear out of a large chunk of wood. The man was fascinated as he watched him and he finally asked him, “HOW DO YOU DO THAT?”

    The wood carver said, “It really isn’t as hard as it looks. What I do is get a huge piece of wood, and I carve out everything that does not look like a bear!” This is what God is trying to do with our lives. He wants to cut everything that does not look like Christ out of our lives. Peter shows ...read more

     | 3,924 views

    This message looks at how Christmas drew a line between those who would say Yes to Christ and those who would say no.

    It was almost as if someone had dragged a stick though the sand drawing a line that said this was then and this is now. There has never been an event in the history of man that has so defined human history as the birth of Jesus. That single solitary event has shaped the world like no other ...read more

    The story of the angels isn’t so much about a heavenly sing-song than God announcing the end to the war between himself and the human race.

    I’m sure we’re all fairly familiar with this scene—a group of shepherds are in the field quietly minding their own businesses when an angel appears to them. *The Angels* We don’t know the name of this angel. However, the only angel to be named in the gospels in connection with the birth of Jesus ...read more
