    Contributed by Bradford Robinson on Dec 18, 2002
    based on 57 ratings
     | 5,504 views

    This sermon starts by looking at just how amazing it is that the word became flesh and then continues by looking at how truly amazing it is that since God was made a child we can become His children.

    Some times we do things that, well just aren’t too smart. In my case, this happens on a weekly basis. A while back, I heard a noise out near our trashcans and I looked out there to see a large raccoon digging for a little midnight snack. This had to be stopped. So the brave hunter I am, I got ...read more

    This sermon takes a look at what is so significant about the incarnation of God. The significance I point out is that it reveals who God is and what He is like, then I focus on the approachability of God and how He experienced what we experience.

    This past week we exchanged gifts amongst our own family and to tell you the truth we just couldn’t wait to see the look on our little girl‘s faces. Denise had spent almost 4 months tracking down every type of care bear in existence for our youngest girl Carrie, and with all that hard work ...read more

     | 11,356 views

    Five viewpoints of what would have happened if Jesus had not been born.

    What If Jesus Had Not Been Born? Luke 2:1-20 INTRO. I’m amazed at how our society is trying to de-Christianize everything, including Christmas. We can say Happy Hanukkah or Happy Kwanzaa, etc. But don’t say “Merry Christmas.” There is an attempt to “sanitize” Christmas of its Christlikeness. ...read more

  • Nothing Of Significance

    based on 61 ratings
     | 1,820 views

    Christmas Eve parable -- kind of silly and serious at the same time -- poking a little fun at my own Scandinavian heritage. From the beginning the trained observers have failed to recognize the significance of the Nativity.

    The Middle East is a troubled place. And, really, this is nothing new. The land that we call Israel or Palestine has been characterized by instability for as long as we can remember. The players change but the game is the same. It’s all very complicated -- hinging on geographical and political ...read more

    Examines the attitudes and actions of each of the figures in the nativity set. If we follow in their footsteps we can be a part of the Christmas story too.

     | 5,991 views

    Some of the same misassumptions about the Messiah that caused the people of Israel to miss the coming of the Messiah can cause us to miss God’s working in our lives. We’ll look at four Christ-mis assumptions.

    I thought about what to do for a Christmas Eve message. I thought about the angels, I thought about the baby in the manger, I thought about the busyness of the season, and carols and hot apple cider and hayrides in the snow – and my mind kept going back, back to Israel, its land and its people at ...read more
