    THE KIND OF MOTHER GOD CHOOSES Luke 1:26-38 INTRO: Today is the day in which we honor the Mothers of our church. A most interesting question is: “WHAT KIND OF MOTHER DOES GOD CHOOSE?” God did choose a mother once, and in Mary of Nazareth we can see what God expects of a mother. I. GOD ...read more

    The presence of God disrupts our plans and, like Mary, we must surrender our lives in order to fulfill His plan.

    As I’ve expressed in past years…I love the Christmas season. More than at any other time, I find during this season,. I sense God’s presence in the world…and with it, the significance of my own presence. I’ve been reminded of the competing dynamics we all know so well. It’s caused me to look into ...read more

    God turned Mary’s life upside down. Her response - the Magnificat - teaches us many lessons.

    Luke 1:46-55 WHEN GOD TURNS YOUR LIFE UPSIDE DOWN The 2004 Olympics have just begun. Athletes from all over the world have been preparing for this moment. Imagine all the time and effort and sacrifice that must go into getting ready to compete in the Olympics! And you know why these athletes ...read more

    Idolatry can control a believer’s life and cause confusion and heartaches. A believer living like this is looking for a spiritual accent in their life, and that’s about all. It’s just like a spiritual band aid. This becomes a carnal relationship with t

    ...the power of the Holy Spirit can be an important part of your celebrating the birth of our Savior.

    I would imagine most of you have been rather busy lately getting ready for Christmas. It is only a week away. Some people are beginning to act like little kids. I can always tell how childish people are by the way they act at Christmas time. That is, some of us “children” become very excited ...read more

    Although Mary was considered to be just an average Jewish girl, the Holy Spirit had a “divine influence on her heart”.

    Last week we began looking at the life of Mary, the earthly mother of Jesus Christ. Mary had an angelic visitation from the Archangel, Gabriel. Gabriel declared to Mary that she was a Woman of Grace and highly favored of the Lord. Although Mary was considered to be just an average Jewish girl, ...read more

    Like Mary, we have the life of Christ living within us. Each of us has an awesome responsibility with the life of Christ.

    Recently, we have been looking closely at Mary, the natural mother of our Lord and Savior. Mary was chosen by God to conceive and give birth to Jesus Christ. We studied and found her to be a Woman of Grace and a Woman of Power. While Mary is not someone we pay homage to, we can learn a great ...read more

    THE HANDMAID OF THE LORD! The Virgin Mary INTRODUCTION: the subject of Mary – the mother of the Lord has been a controversial topic for quite a long time. One side of the argument seeks to elevate her position to one almost, if not in reality, equal with the trinity. The other side of the ...read more

    See How the Lord makes what some would see as a dismal situation into a Glorious Celebration

    As I prepared for this morning’s mother’s day celebration, I began to look at how society has formulated our own mind thinking of what a mother is supposed to be. On television, we had June Cleaver, from Leave It to Beaver. Black stilletoe shoes, Crisp linen dress, and a string of pearls…. ...read more

    Mary’s faith and devotion to God is an example to Christian mothers today.

    Today, as you know, is Mother’s Day; a day set apart to honor Mothers and Motherhood. Why mention Mother’s Day in church? After all, it’s not a religious holiday. Mother’s Day was created by the state, not the church. Since 1914, the President has made an official proclamation every year ...read more

    Christmas is hope personified. It highlights the fact that Christianity is essentially a religion of hope.

    Today we began the Advent season by lighting the first Advent candle, the candle of hope. As we heard a few minutes ago, this candle reminds us of the hope God gave His people when He promised to send them a Messiah, a Savior, a Deliverer. The candle reminds us that this promise was fulfilled in ...read more
