    Contributed by Stephen Colaw on Dec 11, 2006
     | 3,965 views

    Just as God worked in the frustration of the first Christmas, He can use our frustrations and hurts to bring peace to us and to others.

     | 5,135 views

    Through the birth of the Christ child and the visitation of the angels to the shepherds we see a God who cares and comes to us at our worst times to deliver us.

    When we read the Christmas story of the birth of Christ I think we have a tendency to gloss over and glamorize what really happened. We sing our Christmas songs and envision this postcard picture of Jesus in a pristine creche as he lies in a manger on a bed of hay or straw. It’s beautiful, ...read more

    Using the story of the wise men to teach us how God seeks us and brings us to seek the Christ.
