    Imagine Mary & Zechariah COMPARING NOTES about their encounters with Gabriel. Mary & Elizabeth TALKED about God, were FILLED with the Holy Spirit, and PROPHESIED; Zechariah was not. Unbelief has embarrassing consequences!

    Christmas is often a time when people struggle feeling that they don't have enough, or can't provide enough. It often steals away the joy of Christmas. Mary could have felt that she did not have enough; yet her song proves-- Jesus was enough.

    One of the top 10 Christmas songs of all time- it actually is ranked #7- is the song: “All I Want For Christmas Is You” by Mariah Carey. The song goes like this: “Don’t want a lot for Christmas, there is just one thing I need, I don’t care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree, I just ...read more

    The birth announcement of Jesus was exciting and challenging all at the same time. Immediately she experienced "aloneness." Her fiancé wanted to put her away privately. Her future kids would not initially believe her story. What do we learn from Mary's "aloneness?"

Isaiah forecast a messenger who would make a way for the Messiah. Isaiah 40:1-5 & 9-11 Comfort, comfort my people, says your God. 2 Speak ...read more
