    Micah prophesied during the reigns of four kings. He probably wondered whether any administration would last. It was to this humble prophet that God sent a prophecy of the birthplace of a Ruler whose kingdom would never fade away.

    This morning, we’re going to examine a passage from the book of Micah that relates to the Christmas season; and I’ve entitled our message, “A Ruler Called Peace.” “Micah [prophesied] during the reigns of four kings in Israel and three kings in Judah. He probably wondered, as he watched the parade ...read more

     | 2,845 views

    The Lord Jesus Christ is The True Shepherd of the sheep. He came as The Seeking Shepherd who would die for the sins of the world. Each one He seeks and saves, He then adds that one to His sheepfold where he cares for them all and leads them in love.

    The Bible tells us a lot about what the angels do, but not much about what they look like. Let’s imagine their appearance and explore their performance.

    ADVENT ANGELS Text: Matthew 2:13-15 Matthew 2:13-15  Now after they had left, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, "Get up, take the child and his mother, and flee to Egypt, and remain there until I tell you; for Herod is about to search for the child, to ...read more

    Contributed by William Akehurst on Dec 26, 2025
     | 513 views

    The Christ we celebrate at Christmas is the King who calls us forward into a transformed life. As the new year dawns, GOD invites His people to move from celebration to consecration - abandoning what no longer aligns with His purposes to step into the new season of obedience, renewal, and mission.

     | 3,250 views

    Christmas is filled with details large and small, but the important detail is God's incredible love in Jesus Christ who came to save us.

    One of my childhood Christmas highlights was putting up the crèche. I don’t know why my Norwegian family called the nativity set by its French name, but we did. First we would put the wooden framework in place. In back of it was a music box which we wound to play a tired version of ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 8,441 views

    Based on the song "Mary, Did You Know." Was Mary in need of salvation, although she bore the holy Christ child? Did she ever know why the child she delivered had come into the world? This message seeks to answer these questions.

    The title for our message comes from a song written by the Christian comedian Mark Lowry, and originally sung by the Christian vocalist Michael English; and the song is entitled, “Mary, Did You Know?” One stanza of the song says: Mary did you know that your baby boy would one day walk on ...read more

     | 23,985 views

    Today we focus on hope. Advent is all about hope. But hope isn’t something we can manufacture. We can’t just try to be more hopeful. Hope doesn’t come with the power of positive thinking. Hope is based on who Christ is and His promises to us!

    Living with Hope Intro: Advent is a time of preparation and expectation for the coming of Christ, the time before celebrating the “joy to the world” that God’s incarnation becomes. In advance of a celebratory Christmas season that follows Advent, it is good for us to take time to ...read more
