    Sometimes we treat God like a holiday ornament that we pull out on special occasions, but Jesus is not just a Christmas story, He is our life.

    Everyone waits for Christmas. Christmas is the promise of gifts. In Simeon and Anna we see that finally the Christmas promise has arrived. The silence is over in these latter days God has spoken to us in His Son.

    Intro: It has been 400 years since the Word of the Lord came to the prophets of Israel. Finally the still small voice whispers grace to those that will hear. In the 400 years of Gods silence Rome has risen to power and controls the Promised Land. A remnant of the people of Israel are still ...read more

    This message invites the listener to see more than just a cute little baby in a cute little manger at Christmastime, but to see what Simeon saw when he met the baby Jesus in the temple. He saw a Sacrifice, a Savior, and a Stone.

    Simeon Sees (Luke 2:22-35) Christmas is a time of surprises. There was a lady who was preparing her Christmas cookies. There was a knock at the door. She went to find a man, his clothes poor, obviously looking for some Christmas odd jobs. He asked her if there was anything he could do. She ...read more

    Sometimes God asks us to wait and be patient. What do we do in the meantime?

    - How are you at waiting? - They say that patience is a virtue. I know a lot of people that are not very virtuous then. I am one of them. - I do not like to wait one iota - However, I am working on it. I’m starting a group called Impatient Anonymous. THE MEETING IS BEGINNING ...read more

    Simeon was one who was blessed to see the Christ Child. Both his character and desire produced his reward. If we are to see Christ we need to have these qualities in our lives.

    DO YOU SEE HIM? Introduction: We’ve all heard the slogan: “Jesus the reason for the season.” But while millions see the tinsel and the holiday lights, few see Him for Whom the holiday is held. When Christ was born in Bethlehem, few saw the Messiah though His coming had been prophesied again and ...read more

    It is startling that so few people anticipated the Advent of God’s Messiah. However, few look for His presence today; and few will be anticipating His return.

    What happens when Christmas doesn’t go according to plan? How do we handle it when circumstances rob us of the joy of the season? How do we respond to a "blue Christmas?"
