    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Nov 28, 2017
     | 7,285 views

    A look at the Christmas passage - specifically, the struggle of Mary and Joseph having the baby in Bethlehem far from home. A look at four ways God uses our struggles in our lives.

    Mary And Joseph’s Road Trip: “Why does God allow these struggles in my life?” - Luke 2:3-6. - The trip to Bethlehem under such difficult circumstances had to be a struggle. Did they have questions? I know I would have. “God, why are You allowing this?” “God, have You forgotten us?” “God, ...read more

    What Am I Supposed To Do With My Unanswered Questions?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 1, 2017
     | 6,010 views

    This message focuses on Luke 2:6-7 and the unanswered questions that Mary and Joseph must have had as they end up in with no decent place to stay when the baby comes. How could God be with them and she have to put the baby in a manger?

    SOME OF MARY AND JOSEPH'S QUESTIONS: “God, why have the birth so far from home?” “God, why didn’t You provide a place for us to stay?” “God, how can this be the place for the miracle child to be born?” - Luke 2:6-7. - I’m sure when the angel visited Mary and told her that she’d be carrying this ...read more

    Mary's Side Of The Story

    Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Dec 5, 2017
    based on 5 ratings
     | 28,893 views

    I wonder, how does Mary’s story speak to you this Advent season? In a few weeks from now, Christmas Sunday would seem rather odd if we did not hear from Mary.

    This is not an original sermon, points borrowed from Advent 3/C, December 17, 2006 Lynne M. Dolan (I believe the message was entitled “Nothing Impossible with God”). I have restructured the message, however; want to ensure I give proper credit. TITLE: MARY’S SIDE OF THE STORY SCRIPTURE: ...read more

    What are the qualities that God is looking for in His servants? The angel spoke about 4 qualities that John the Baptist would have. We ought to endeavor to emulate these qualities of John.

    QUALITIES OF GOD’S SERVANTS LUKE 1:15-17 Luke 1:5-7 5 In the time of Herod king of Judea there was a priest named Zechariah, who belonged to the priestly division of Abijah; his wife Elizabeth was also a descendant of Aaron. 6 Both of them were righteous in the sight of God, observing all the ...read more

    Why Did The Angels Announce The Birth To Shepherds?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 6, 2017
     | 10,775 views

    A message about the choice to proclaim the news of Christ's birth to the lowly shepherds. The sermon looks at how the shepherds were a foreshadowing of who the ministry of Jesus would focus on.

    OF COURSE IT WAS SHEPHERDS: We act like this was an inevitable part of the story, but it wasn’t. - Luke 2:8-12. - The Christmas story is so familiar that we presume that each part had to happen that way. “Of course the shepherds heard from the angels. It had to be like that.” Only it didn’t. ...read more

    We know that we are living in troubling times; the economy is tight, jobs are scarce, corruption and crime is all around us. The world is not a safe place. Where is Peace. Longfellow wrote about peace, or rather, the lack of peace.

    Today we start a new sermon series called "The Carols of Christmas," where we will look at a few of the favorite carols and consider their Biblical message for today. Today we are looking at peace. We lit the Advent Candle of Peace this morning and you heard David read a few verses concerning ...read more

    People Who Missed Christmas

    Contributed by John Gaston on Dec 10, 2017

    Most people today miss the real meaning of Christmas, because the holiday has been hijacked by the secular culture. That's nothing new. Most people in the 1st century missed the 1st Christmas. 3 examples of them.
