    People spend their time thinking of many things when their time is their own with no distractions. They may stare at a fire, the stars, or out a window, and there is as much variety in those things we think about as there are ways to do it. We think abo

    Have you ever wondered why God placed perhaps the most important prophecy about His coming Messiah in Micah 5:2? This sermon explores that thought, and along the way sees both how contemporary Micah’s message was, and how wise and awesome in His planning

    How much of our activity at this season owes more to the Christmas spirit than to the spirit of Christ?

    The eternally liberal town of Eugene, Oregon lost their cross a few years ago. It used to overlook the town from Skinner Butte, but after a heated battle it was replaced by an American flag. This year the diversity police focused on a new target. The Christmas tree in the Hult Center for the ...read more

    The Christmas Star

    Contributed by Richard Stevens on Sep 17, 2024
     | 1,228 views

    The Star of Christmas is not the star that led the Maji from Mesopotamia to Jerusalem and ultimately to Bethlehem. It's not the star on the top of our Christmas tree, not Santa Claus, not our good feelings, good will, gifts, hopes for peace, celebrations or any of the rest.

    SLIDE – Introduction I want to talk a little while this morning about the Star of Christmas. Now, I’m NOT talking about the Star that appeared to the Maji. That Star they led from Mesopotamia over to Jerusalem. That Star that King Herod couldn’t see and didn’t know about. So, Herod called ...read more

     | 537 views

    The Heart of Christmas: Peace proclaims that true, lasting peace is not found in circumstances but is announced at the manger, accomplished at the cross, and displayed through God’s reconciled people who live as peacemakers in a broken world through faith in Jesus Christ.

    Christmas—with all its tinsel, decorations, presents, food, and gatherings with family and friends—is truly a remarkable time of year. For a moment, it almost feels as though we are being invited to step outside the weight of our daily realities and taste the love and joy we long ...read more

    Revival is about bringing life to the spiritually dead, renewing what is weary and restoring what is broken. Christmas is the ultimate example of God initiating this revival through the coming of Jesus Christ.

    OPENING ILLUSTRATION: Everything seemed dead in the world for around 400 years, and it seemed like the world was about to end but suddenly there was a baby’s cry that woke up Bethlehem and also the king and the magis that lived far beyond Israel. This cry revived not only the people then but the ...read more

    This sermon proclaims that the true joy of Christmas is not found in changing circumstances or earthly comfort, but in the unshakable, eternal joy that comes from God drawing near in Christ—who lived, suffered, died, and rose again to secure our salvation and remain with us through every trial.

    To begin our discussion this morning, let’s do a quick, informal congregational survey. I’m going to describe a few scenarios. If the scenario brings you joy, give me a thumbs up.
