    The Star and Stars of Christmas is a series of messages for Advent. Using the idea of a play on a stage. Each message will look at different characters in the Christmas story. The introduction takes a critical look at how many in our society are portrayed as celebrities—bigger than life.

    It is amazing how understanding a person and a historical event gives a different way of looking at history. I enjoy reality fiction, especially in movies.

    My basketball coaches would ask our high school team, “Who wants it?” Again, I want you to personally experience a revival. Here is a fork in the road kind of question: Do you want to experience an awakening?

    I want you to personally experience a revival. I want our church family to experience a spiritual awakening. And most importantly, God Himself wants you to experience Him in all His fulness.
