    Zacharias came to worship God one day hoping that God would "show up". Surprisingly, that is exactly what God did! How should you respond when God shows up and meets your needs?

    WHEN GOD LEAVES YOU SPEECHLESS LUKE 1:15-25; 57-80 Introduction: There is a wise saying I heard a few years back that speaks great truth. “Life is not about how many breaths you take, but about the moments that take your breath away.” Some breathtaking moments for me..... 1.

     | 8,304 views

    Zechariah was a faithful servant for the Lord, but doubted God when an angel appeared to Him with great news. When God's promise was fulfilled, his first response was to PRAISE because of who God is. Will we do the same during this Christmas season?

    2014 Christmas Series (December 7, 2014) Sermon 2 – Zechariah’s Praise Luke 1:5-25; 57-66; 67-80 Introduction - Obvious question: “What is Advent?” -- The word Advent means "coming" or "arrival." -- The focus of the entire season is the celebration of the birth of Jesus ...read more

    Christmas News: The Angels Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Dec 8, 2014
     | 3,039 views

    We need to be seized once more by heavenly realities – just as Zechariah was. We need to experience something like a shock to our smug certainties that whittle God down to a manageable size and leave us underwhelmed by the mysteries of eternity.

    Angels have fallen on hard times these days. Hardly anyone thinks about them anymore…except at Christmas, of course. But even at that, people don’t much believe in them. Although…I knew a woman – a member of this church at one time: She told me that she had actually seen an ...read more

    The Three Wise Women -- Elizabeth, Mary, and Anna Last week we spoke about the Magi who came and gave gifts to Jesus after He was born. We think of them as the “Three Wise Men”, even though we really don’t know how many there were. Each of the Magi’s gifts had a specific ...read more

    Waiting is hard work, perhaps the hardest work you’ve ever done. And that is what the season of Advent is all about: waiting for the coming of the Messiah

    iWitness: Zechariah and Elizabeth Luke 1: 5-17, 39-45 Wayne Styles tells of sitting on the tollways headed into work and realizing how much he spent on tolls. That led to trying to go to work on the access roads but he discovered that just took more time. So he was going to pay with either time or ...read more

    Why do many believers who claim to have faith in Jesus Christ lack the confidence to trust Him? What is your role to play in this life here on earth? Are you living up to what God has called you to do?

    “Forerunner” Luke 1: 1-20 “But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John” (Luke 1:13).

    The birth of John, known as the Baptist, is the appropriate beginning of the story of the coming of the Christ to present His life as a sacrifice for sinful man.

    “In the days of Herod, king of Judea, there was a priest named Zechariah, of the division of Abijah. And he had a wife from the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth. And they were both righteous before God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and statutes of the Lord. But they ...read more

    Simeon and Anna are great examples of how God works when we faithfully wait on Him. Waiting does not mean stagnation but following the leading of the Word and SPIRIT as we patiently hope for God's fulfilled promise.

    God's Waiting Room I. TEXT: Luke 2:1-38 (NRSV) KEY VERSES: Luke 2:25-38 (NRSV) II.
