     | 2,780 views

    Jesus is hard to find today because He is systematically being "X'd" out of Christmas.

    The Christmas X-Files Today we find ourselves looking into a time in the life of Jesus that He is missing. (Luke 2:40 NKJV) And the Child grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon Him. (Luke 2:41 NKJV) His parents went to Jerusalem every year at the ...read more

    Making A Positive Impact For Jesus

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 7, 2007

     | 6,332 views

    John the Baptist made a big impact on many people. This sermon encourages people to make a positive impact (for Jesus) upon people, and not simply to be going through the motions

    Just occasionally we come across someone who makes a big impact upon us. Early in my life John Stainer made an impact upon me. At the time he had a big bushy beard – a bit like I imagine John the Baptist. John was my Sunday school teacher (John Stainer that is, not the Baptist), and he made an ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,950 views

    The cold air keeps us all indoors - unable to take a walk or enjoy the fresh air. Each holiday reminds us of lost loved ones... of blessings that seem to have become curses... that haunt instead of hope.

    Christmas is a wonderful time of the year for most, but for some it ends up being a sad and stressful season. Many are without friends, family, or money searching for joy. Long nights and shorter days seem to loom over spirits like a dark blanket. The cold air keeps us all indoors - unable to ...read more
