    Making sense of Christmas

    What would Christmas be without a good sale? After all who wants to pay retail for all those gifts you buy? “Pre Christmas” sales are what we like at Christmas time! And when all the presents are opened and families visited what could be better than an “After Christmas” sale? Some love ...read more

    #4 in Christmas series on fear. What were the shepherds afraid of? God’s presence.

    Luke 2:8-20 – Fear of God I found a website called Funny Historical Accounts. It tells the unfortunate story of 24-year-old Danny Simpson of Ottawa, Ontario.

    The shepherds story gives us the good news of the presence of joy.

    The Presence of Joy Linus Most people in America are familiar with this passage, even if they rarely crack open a Bible. These verses from Luke have even entered the popular culture, through Linus’ famous speech in the Charlie Brown Christmas video. Every December since 1965, (That’s 40 ...read more

    A challenge to every listener to want to meet with Jesus, even on Christmas Day! (Especially with ’not-yet christians’ in mind)

    [Aim: For the congregation to want to meet Jesus, who came into the world in poverty.] Introduction The births column of the Bethlehem post reads: "FUTURE KING IN BED & BREAKFAST ACCOMMODATION - At 1pm this morning BMT - (that’s Bethlehem Mean Time) - the future King of the Jewish Nation was born ...read more

    Carol Service sermon focussing on the ’offensiveness’ of God’s Christmas present to us - the idea that we need ’saving’ from sin!

    Someone sent me three facts that prove Jesus was a Mexican! His first name was Jesus; he was bilingual, and he was always being harassed by the authorities. Then again, you can prove he was black - he called everybody "brother", he liked Gospel and he couldn’t get a fair trial. Or maybe he was ...read more

    Fact Or Fantasy?

    Contributed by Paul Stokes on Dec 20, 2005
     | 2,551 views

    Carol Service sermon asking whether we regard the Christmas story as merely a story, or are there facts which should make us sit up and respond?

    Christmas is a wasteful time ! Not a waste of time, but a wasteful time. In 1998 the UK threw away 2.5 billion cards, worth £350 million in the shops. If you stuck these cards end to end they would have stretched 236,000 miles - that’s nine times round the globe! We used a massive 85,000 miles ...read more

    Carol Service sermon (centred on the lyrics of a Graham kendrick song) asking how much difference Christmas makes in reality.

    Most of us will break the law this Christmas ! The list of activities that are illegal to do on Christmas Day is fascinating & ridiculous. These laws have never been repealed and are still officially on the Statute Books: It is illegal to ride or drive to church, and illegal not to attend. ...read more

    The greatest birth announcement in history...the Savior is Born!!! Yet it wasn’t made in the church house or the halls of government, but in a field filled with shepherds. The Savior had come for all men.

    Luke 2:1-3 (NLT) At that time the Roman emperor, Augustus, decreed that a census should be taken throughout the Roman Empire. [2] (This was the first census taken when Quirinius was governor of Syria.) [3] All returned to their own towns to register for this census. Tax Season • The Roman ...read more
