    The Star and Stars of Christmas is a series of messages for Advent. Using the idea of a play on a stage. Each message will look at different characters in the Christmas story. The introduction takes a critical look at how many in our society are portrayed as celebrities—bigger than life.

    Cut! Cut! This story is missing something! The script is not going the way it was written. First, it was written with a God-given ability for all players in the script to always love the Lord, follow his precepts for godly living.

     | 3,954 views

    Simeon hoped to see the messiah before he died and he did. His story teaches us something about why we hope and how to hope.

    We’ve just sung that great song by Keith Getty and Stuart Townend, ‘In Christ alone my hope is found.’ That’s quite a declaration! Getty wrote the music and Townend wrote the words. Townend isn’t merely saying that Jesus is A source of HOPE. He’s saying that Jesus is the ONLY source of hope! ...read more

    One of the wonders of the Christmas story is that the Triune God gave the honor of being the mother to the Savior of the world to an unmarried teenage girl.

    The belief that Mary, the mother of Jesus, is the "Mother of God," "Queen of Heaven," a perpetual virgin, and has an exalted place in Heaven, which provides her the closest access to Jesus and God the Father, is not taught anywhere in the Bible, which is the final and absolute ...read more
