    The amazing Christmas Truce on the Western Front during WW1.

    Christmas Truce in the trenches in 1914 As we celebrate Christmas, I am reminded of one of the more curious events that happened in the First World War - “The Christmas Truce of 1914”, which on the Western Front. It all appears to have started on the evening of 24th December, the day the ...read more

  • Christmas Significa Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jul 11, 2021
     | 2,884 views

    The real beauty and power of Christmas is how it is as mundane as it is holy, secular as it is sacred, temporal as it is eternal, physical as it is spiritual, worldly as it is heavenly … and this is by design.

    Today’s scripture reading reminds me of Christmas hymns like “Angles We Have Heard on High” in which the angels “sweetly sing o’er the plans” (UMH, verse 1; p.238) or “Hark! the Herald Angels Sing” … “glory to the newborn King” (UMH, verse 1; p. 240). Songs like these beautifully capture the drama ...read more

  • Mary, Did You Know? Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jul 17, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 8,356 views

    Based on the song "Mary, Did You Know." Was Mary in need of salvation, although she bore the holy Christ child? Did she ever know why the child she delivered had come into the world? This message seeks to answer these questions.

    The title for our message comes from a song written by the Christian comedian Mark Lowry, and originally sung by the Christian vocalist Michael English; and the song is entitled, “Mary, Did You Know?” One stanza of the song says: Mary did you know that your baby boy would one day walk on ...read more

  • Good News In An Unexpected Place Series

     | 18,812 views

    In this message, we will see how the birth announcement of the King of Kings wasn’t delivered to the rich or royal, but it was instead delivered in the least expected place. It was delivered to some lowly shepherds.

    When people send out baby shower invitations, they primarily mail them to family and friends. I once saw a really funny movie, a comedy, where a couple sent out fake shower announcements when they weren’t really going to have a baby. They were in debt and needed some money to pay off their bills, ...read more

  • What Did The Angels Think Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jul 18, 2021
     | 1,571 views

    What did the angels think about God taking on flesh and coming into His creation as a weak, helpless baby? Why would God do such a thing for these … these pathetic, corrupt creatures?

    If you remember, last week we took a little trip back in time … to that night in Bethlehem. Let’s picture that night once again. Bethlehem asleep under the stars … the shepherds out in the fields … the quiet punctuated by the occasional bleating of sheep. To the rest of the world … from the ...read more

  • Messiah In The Context Of Jewish History

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Aug 3, 2021
     | 1,204 views

    Normally when we talk about the arrival of the messiah we’re talking about it in the context of Christmas season and we end with a very colored picture, seeing Jesus in the context of Christmas trees, bells, candy canes, and lights.

    Normally when we talk about the arrival of the messiah we’re talking about it in the context of Christmas season and we end with a very colored picture, seeing Jesus in the context of Christmas trees, bells, candy canes, and lights. But today, I’d like to shift our perspective, and we shall try to ...read more

  • The Holy Name Of Jesus Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 1, 2022
     | 1,517 views

    The name of God and his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, is so often abused in our culture, that we must in this new year treat that Name with respect and honor.

    On January 1, Moses tells the people how Aaron and his following high priests should bless them. The strange phrase, “so shall they place my name upon the people of Israel” is part of the direction. In Hebrew, the word “name” (hashem) stands for the person and the person’s power and authority. The ...read more

     | 22,600 views

    When the SIGNS are no longer VISIBLE, does that mean that the SIGNIFICANCE of Christmas is no longer VALUABLE?

    CHRISTMAS IS OVER...NOW WHAT? Luke 2:1-20 I have a bit of post-Christmas humor to share with you. It’s called "The Month After Christmas." ‘Twas the month after Christmas, and all through the house, nothing would fit me, not even a blouse. The cookies I’d nibbled, the fudge I did taste, all the ...read more

    As Christmas comes, we think, "Maybe it’s not impossible. Maybe we really could have hearts filled with love. Maybe we really could be kind to each other, & not just once a year, but all year long."

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (REVISED: 2017) TEXT: Luke 2:8-14 ILL. It's Christmas time, & Lucy comes in where Charlie Brown is standing & says, "Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown. 'Tis the season of peace on earth & good will toward men. ...read more

    The shepherds were confronted with good news, what do you do with it?

    “The First Christmas Rush” Luke 2:8-20 Introduction Several weeks ago as the family and I were putting up the Christmas tree, I began wondering where did this all comes from? Why do we do all these things to celebrate the birth of Christ? There are so many things that we need to do to prepare ...read more

  • Beyond Human Imagination Series

     | 7,147 views

    Nothing surpasses the mystery of Christ’s Incarnation.

    BEYOND HUMAN IMAGINATION Luke 2:8-20 There are several reasons as to why the shepherds’ episode of the Christmas story could not have been a story of human imagination, or a man-made story. 1. If you or I were to make up a story about the birth of the long anticipated Messiah, it ...read more
