    In so much of life we are searching for perfection.

    Realationship Series

    Contributed by Paul Newell on Dec 4, 2006
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,450 views

    Discovering the REAL Christmas begins with REALationship. Though Simon Peter does not meet the Christ Child until thirty years after his birth, Peter is still a powerful illustration of REALationship.

    Pretend Santas, imitation smells, counterfeit presents, simulated smiles, artificial trees, fake snow...how is it that we’ve turned the Christmas season into everything but something real? It appears to me that most of what is foisted upon us during the holiday’s is anything but real. As we prepare ...read more

    Take the first step in rising above the rubble of failure, disappoint, discouragement, and defeat.

    (To open this sermon I showed a picture of the rubble from 9-11. I stated “The rubble from 9-11 or any catastrophe is not a pretty sight. Maneuvering through rubble is not easy.
