     | 3,580 views

    A Christmas message. Most people have no problem getting up for Christmas but what about the day after? This message is based on Luke 2:20 from what I see as the shepherds return to "normal" after God has broken into their lives.

    "It's A Wonder-filled Life" Luke 2:20 "Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told them." Intro: Frank Capra's "It's a Wonderful Life" is, by far, my all time favorite Christmas movie. George Bailey finds out that even ...read more

    How can we respond to difficult circumstances with acceptance and abandonment? Mary’s response to the angel in Luke 1: 38 shows us. The only way to have that same attitude is to believe that God’s will is “good and acceptable and perfect”, and to lay down

    I love Christmas, but I can't stand when people sub out Christ's title with an 'X' - here's 5 really quick/easy points that make good sense...

    #1 I wouldn’t like them substituting my name out with an X or any other letter… It is impersonal and disrespectful. Yes, I realize that some think its okay because CHI (X) is the Greek initial for Christ, but it reminds me too much of ‘JC’ — which isn’t very ...read more
