Comfort My People

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Jul 1, 2019

The weeks running up to Christmas can be really stressful. Remember that God comes to comfort his people.

This is the second Sunday now in the church season of Advent, as we celebrate the coming of our Lord, Jesus Christ. The word “Advent” means that someone is coming, or arriving. There are many ideas of what will happen when Jesus comes. I suppose most kids in America identify the coming of ...read more

God has forgiven their sins and has reclaimed them as His own people. What good news that was for them and what good news for all those who seek to be God’s today.

Advent2B A story came across my desk recently about a man who worked for the Post Office. This man’s job was to process all the mail that had illegible addresses that that computer scanning system could not decipher.

The Absurdity Of Advent

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Dec 3, 2018

If on Advent Sunday all we do is to look back to Christ's earthly life and forward to his coming again, our present life seems to occupy a sort of interval when nothing much is going on.

TITLE: THE ABSURDITY OF ADVENT SCRIPTURE: ISAIAH 40:3-5 I so enjoy this time of the year in the Christian Calendar. Even after 35 years of Preaching and Pastoring, this season never grows old or tiresome as I stand in the pulpit. This is the First Sunday in Advent. • In the media the season ...read more

A High-Way For Our God

Contributed by Larry Grant on Jun 23, 2024

These verses point out the preparations the church must make for the Kingdom if we want to see the Lord move among us in a time of power and glory. God’s “High Way” always stands in contradiction to the World’s “Low Way.”

Isaiah 40:3-5 A High Way For Our God June 23, 2024 Isaiah is writing about the coming of the Messiah. These verses were partially fulfilled through the ministry of John the Baptist. Matthew 3:3 says In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea, and saying, "Repent, ...read more

Conquering Our Mountains

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 17, 2022

In a spiritual sense, a mountain can represent any obstacle that stands in the way of victory. This message looks at how to overcome the obstacles and trials that are trying to pull us down into the valley of hardship and defeat below.

In the Christian walk we often refer to “entering the valley” and “having mountaintop experiences.” The valleys are the low points in our life, and those times in which we experience hardship and trials. King David said in Psalm 23:4, “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, ...read more

Looking For Comfort

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 31, 2023

God's coming does not depend on us. In fact, He has already come. And the only things we have to do to receive him are the same three things Isaiah told the people of Israel so long ago.

I got a recording of the Messiah for my 20th birthday. That was the summer after I dropped out of my first college; I was living at home getting ready to go to my second one and trying to make some kind of sense out of my life. There was no way on earth I could make sense out of anybody else’s. ...read more

John The Cactus Series

Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Aug 11, 2023

The fulness of time had come…. The “Hope of Nations” the “Messiah” was on His way. The announcement of that longed for event came in quite an unexpected way – the angel who had replaced Lucifer – the angel Gabriel - appeared to an old childless priest:

August 12, 2023 One Sabbath, after church, a mom asked her little girl what the picture she had drawn was supposed to be. It looked like a bunch of brown scribbles surrounding some kind of big green thing. The little girl said, “Well, this is the wilderness, and that’s John the Cactus.” Today, ...read more
