    This sermon was used with video clips from the Peanuts Christmas video.

    God knows what we need, at Christmas and throughout the year. The birth of Jesus caught the Hebrew people by surprise. The gift of the Messiah was different than what they expected, but God knew what they really needed.

    Luke 2 teaches us that Jesus purposefully came to those who no one would choose - from a young poor couple to outcast shepherds. Learn also about his ordinary/extraordinary childhood.

It is the only place where we see Jesus presented for circumcision at the Temple, and the only gospel that ...read more
