    When you see these symbols, what do you think of? [Show circle peace symbol, two fingers V peace sign, and an image of a dove with an olive branch.] These three images are very different, but they all are very recognizable as signs of peace.

    Peace comes to us a gift with several layers to unwrap.

    "No man had more reason to be miserable than this one – yet no man was more joyful. His first home was a palace. Servants were at his fingertips.

They’re decorating their homes, putting up Christmas trees and mistletoe and holly… and Christmas lights all over the place. We Americans are so used to our traditions of the season ...read more

    Gifts-whether it's giving them, receiving them, opening them, enjoying them-we love it all. Christmas is a big day for that. We're familiar with the story of the wise men bearing gifts when they visited Jesus but what else does the bible say about gifts?

    A paraphrasing of Jesus & the woman at the well. I used it as a Christmas Eve story explaining the real gift.

    We all know the Christmas story and the reason we give gifts at Christmas is because of Jesus coming AS God’s GIFT to us but there’s only one Bible story where Jesus himself describes this gift he brought us and he actually uses the word gift. The story begins with Jesus sitting alone ...read more

    God has given the church what she needs. The diversities of talents and gifts are intentional. When everyone serves, the Body of Christ is built up and grows, until we become mature in Christ.

    We are the church. We are the Body of Christ. • By now, I believe you do know that. The church is not a building. It is not even the activities that make the church. It is the people. • You and I form the church. It is not an organization, although it is organized. It is an ...read more
