  • A Message We Don't Like

    Contributed by Paul Stokes on Dec 20, 2005
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,417 views

    Carol Service sermon focussing on the ’offensiveness’ of God’s Christmas present to us - the idea that we need ’saving’ from sin!

    Someone sent me three facts that prove Jesus was a Mexican! His first name was Jesus; he was bilingual, and he was always being harassed by the authorities. Then again, you can prove he was black - he called everybody "brother", he liked Gospel and he couldn’t get a fair trial. Or maybe he was ...read more

  • Fact Or Fantasy?

    Contributed by Paul Stokes on Dec 20, 2005
     | 2,269 views

    Carol Service sermon asking whether we regard the Christmas story as merely a story, or are there facts which should make us sit up and respond?

    Christmas is a wasteful time ! Not a waste of time, but a wasteful time. In 1998 the UK threw away 2.5 billion cards, worth £350 million in the shops. If you stuck these cards end to end they would have stretched 236,000 miles - that’s nine times round the globe! We used a massive 85,000 miles ...read more

    Carol Service sermon (centred on the lyrics of a Graham kendrick song) asking how much difference Christmas makes in reality.

    Most of us will break the law this Christmas ! The list of activities that are illegal to do on Christmas Day is fascinating & ridiculous. These laws have never been repealed and are still officially on the Statute Books: It is illegal to ride or drive to church, and illegal not to attend. ...read more

    Contributed by Scott Taylor on Dec 21, 2005
    based on 21 ratings
     | 4,528 views

    How does one find HOPE in a world under the curse? How does one celebrate when winter is so strong? Romans 8 God gives us three reasons to have hope, even if we find ourselves locked in winter.

    Finding Hope in the Winter Narnia 2005 Intro: The land of Narnia was under a perpetual winter for over 100 years. The question we must ask ourselves is what was C.S. Lewis trying to portray with this image. The winter is a picture of what the Bible calls The Fall. It is result of Adam and ...read more

    We can learn a lot from the faith of young Mary when she encounters the Angel Gabriel

    One of the aspects of the Christmas Story that always fascinates and amazes me is the virgin birth of our Lord Jesus It shows us the power of our God, that he can change the rules of nature he can do things that have never been done before to accomplish his will That through the gift of the Holy ...read more

  • Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid

    Contributed by W Pittendreigh on Dec 25, 2005
    based on 5 ratings
     | 3,269 views

    Angels always approach humans with "Don’t be afraid." Easier said than done. We are very afraid.

    As a kid fear was a great experience. Especially if it involved SOMEBODY ELSE being afraid. Christmas and Easter are great holidays, but when I was a kid, Halloween was the most fun. Dressing up like some ghost or monster and jumping out of the bushes to yell, “boo!” And to see your best friend ...read more

    What are you living for this Christmas?

    There was always a lot of excitement at my house on Christmas morning. The night before, we would be debating with my parents about what time we could wake them up. Usually they would start somewhere around 7:00 and my brothers and I would start somewhere around 5:00. We would usually compromise ...read more

  • Mary's Song Series

    Contributed by William Huegel on Dec 30, 2005
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,056 views

    Mary was a nobody. She knew she was unworthy of such a blessing. And she was right. It’s a problem to elevate her too highly. The point of the Gospel is that God only uses people who understand that they are not worthy and without God they are nothing

    Mary’s Song Luke 1:46ff Rev. Wm. A. Huegel Wallingford FBC November 27, 2005 - 1st Sunday of Advent “He has scattered the proud …but has lifted up the humble”. The Song of Mary 46 And Mary said: “ My soul magnifies the Lord, 47 And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior. 48 For He has ...read more

    So how was your day? Luke 1:46-55 Some days I pick up Jason and Keylee at school. Once they are in the car, I usually ask. How was your day? I get grunts and groans.
