Glory To God In The Highest!

Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Oct 12, 2020

It was just like any old night for the shepherds. They were out in their fields, literally “taking care of their business.” It was night and all of a sudden the sky lit up. The sky lit up with the glory of the Lord.

Luke 2:8 And in the same region there were some shepherds staying out in the fields, and keeping watch over their flock by night. The region Luke mentions in verse eight is the region of Bethlehem. Bethlehem, Bethlehem was about six miles directly south of the city of Jerusalem. It's just a ...read more

Christmas Silence And Song Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 8, 2021

Christmas was both a night of silence and a night of song. If you read through the Christmas hymns in a hymnal you will see these two themes stand out often, some with a focus on the silence and others with a focus on the song.

Paradox is simply the recognition that opposites can both be true. The Christmas story is loaded with paradoxes. The most profound revolving around the Christ-Child Himself: The eternal Son born into time and the Infinite Spirit embodied in finite flesh. The creator of all space having no room in ...read more
