    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Dec 24, 2018

    Today's Sermon is about how Christmas is God's Design in Man's Despair. It is taken from Jesus's genealogy found in Matthew's Gospel. It looks at how God perfectly ordered history, how God works through sinful man, and that we have to resign from being our own gods.

    God’s Design in Man’s Despair Matthew 1:1-25 Looking at this title, “God’s Design in Man’s Despair,” it doesn’t look or sound like a positive and uplifting Christmas message, but stay tuned, because I believe you’ll be blessed knowing that God’s has a design for our lives.

    As Christians we are on a journey that should cause us to discover the God we serve. I believe we find this to true in the biblical character Jacob's life in which I would like to make application from.

    Discovering God Genesis 47:7-10, 27-31 The journey of Jacob is an amazing story of a man finding his way through life with at the beginning trusting in what came natural for him. Somewhere along the way he truly discovers the God of his fathers. In many ways our lives are similar to the life of ...read more
