    This funeral message was for the adult daughter of a lady from my Church. The Mother is a committed Christian, but the deceased’s commitment to Christ was uncertain, and I never met her. This message might be used for either a Believer or a Non-Christian

    Have you ever thought that the Wise Men got the short end of the stick? The shepherds were given specific instructions. Wise Men on their own!

    Those Stinkin’ Shepherds They got the short end of the stick. It just wasn’t fair. They were supposed to be wise and would probably come a lot closer to figuring out the riddle than the shepherds could, but it still wasn’t fair. Why should they have to do all the research? Why did it it fall their ...read more

    Stick With the Good Shepherd 1) Because his pain is our gain 2) Even when our gain brings pain

    “No pain, no gain.” That saying is true isn’t it? If you want to get your muscles into shape, you’ll need to work them to the point of exhaustion. That will cause some pain in the manner of sore muscles the day after your workout. Wouldn’t it be great if someone else’s pain could be your gain? What ...read more

    The story of the Shepherds reminds us that to find the heart of Christmas we must look beneath the wrapping paper.

    The last few embers of the fire are dying out. The air hangs heavy with a silence broken only by the occasional bleat of a lamb. Huddled together for warmth, the shepherds are alone with their thoughts. Each one scanning the horizon. Looking. Perhaps casting a longing eye to the distant lights of ...read more

    Little did the shepherds know the miracles that they would see that glorious night. Did they ever fully comprehend what it was that they saw? Do we?

    What the Shepherds Saw Luke 2:1-18 That night was unlike any other in all of history. The shepherds had bedded down their sheep for the night and began their vigil guarding their sheep. I came imagine as they watched over their flocks that they gazed into the splendor of the starry sky thinking ...read more

Your task over the next few minutes will be to look at life and look at the world from ...read more
