    Jesus Christ came so we could have Christmas, because like Edmund wanting more Turkish Delight, we were sinners wanting and lusting after everything but God.

I remember wanting to sit on his lap and waiting for his question, “And now young man, what do you want for ...read more

    For Advent III, preached at First Baptist of Gaithersburg, MD. "We may be knee deep in sheep, but let this keep you as you sleep, it is joy we reap". God in Christ transforms the ordinariness of everyday, humdrum life.

Listen again: we may be knee deep in sheep, but let this keep you as you sleep – it is joy we shall reap. Now you ...read more

    It’s not about the money. Many people hear this parable about the Rich Man and Lazarus and think that God’s got it in for rich people. But it’s not about the money. It’s about compassion.

Friends urge us to alter our course and warn us of dangers ahead if we don’t. We read in Scripture about God’s path of ...read more
