    Christmas Through The Eyes of Mary Luke 1:26-38 When Christmas is mentioned what do you think? What memories does the Christmas season bring to your mind?

    As we consider all the things that must have been going through Joseph’s mind before the birth of Jesus, we ask ourselves: "What Would Joseph Do?" I. About a pregnant fiancee? II. About an angelic visit?

    Advent 4 Matthew 1:18-25 I have a confession to make. What I am about to tell you is not something that I’m proud of, but it is true, and I feel you should know about it. The fact of the matter is: I’ve watched the Jerry Springer Show a few times. There, I said it. It feels good to get that off my ...read more

    Everyone knows about the angel's visitation to Mary. What about Joseph? Where are the "Joseph Did You Know?" Christmas songs? What were the emotions that Joseph faced when he found Mary pregnant?

    Introduction: *Dave Berry—an American Humorist—tells us his favorite Christmas memories as a child was the annual Nativity Pageant at St. Stephen's Episcopal Church "Shepherd was my favorite role because you got to carry a stick. . . Many were the happy rehearsal hours we shepherds ...read more

    Whose Child Is This?

    This message invites the audience to take the Christmas story personally. This just isn’t the Jews Messiah, or Mary’s child. Jesus told the shepherds "Unto YOU is born..." This Christmas - make him YOUR Jesus.

    4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) 5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. 6 And so it was, that, while they were there, ...read more

    What is the significance of the virgin birth.

    I believe in the Virgin Mary. That may sound like a strange sermon title for a Protestant, but actually it is quite important. It is important to believe that there was such a person in history, that she was the mother of Christ, and that she was a virgin at the time of his birth. In fact, this ...read more

    Mother’s Day. A look at Jesus’ Mother, Mary, and the many difficulties as well as blessings she faced.

    Sermon.974 “Mothers Drink From Their Saucer Cause Their Cup Has Overflowed” Luke 1:26-45 From the pulpit of Bayview Baptist Church, Mother’s Day, May 13, 2001 I was driving East on I-40 near Ashville, North Carolina, listening to Blue Grass Music.

    Grace is God giving to us the exact opposite of what we deserve.

    A. WHAT DID MARY KNOW? LUKE 1:26-30 “Six months after Elizabeth got pregnant; the angel Gabriel visited the Virgin Mary who was living in Nazareth.

     | 3,044 views

    A very short talk given at our 2012 Nativity Service. Put simply, God chose Mary. She was a young, poor female from the wrong end of the country but he had a perfect plan for her. He has a plan for you too!

    The Angel said, “Do not be afraid, Mary, you have found favour with God. You will be with child and give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High” (1:30-32). A very famous and rich couple are going to have a ...read more

    Despite being the Mother of Jesus we get the feeling that Mary was quite an ordinary person. Yet, when the angel appeared to her, she has an extraordinary response of faith. Our call is to know that Jesus brings ordinary people into His family.

    You can listen to the full message here:- http://www.nec.org.au/listen-to-a-sermon-series/a-questionable-genealogy/ Message Luke 1:26-38; Matthew 1:16 Mary – Ordinary Yet Extraordinary.

    Today, many Christians struggle with submitting and yielding to the will of God for their lives. Through Mary’s courage, we find what can happen when we believe and follow God’s Word.

    This morning, we are continuing in our series entitled, "What We Have Learned From the Christmas Story." Today’s message is the third in this series that will take us up to Christmas. In the first message, God revealed to us His sovereignty in Matthew 1:18-25. The second message brought to light ...read more

    Christmas Eve is the time, when the membrane between heaven and earth is so thin you can almost see through it. This is the night when God sent out a love letter of cosmic proportions, the night when Christ entered the world, fully God and fully man.

    For Those Not Familiar with an Anglican Service; Four Scriptures are read prior to the Message. The designated Scriptures for this Christmas Eve Service are: Isaiah 9:2-7; Psalm 96; Titus 2:11-14 and Luke 2:1-20. Can you hear it? ......There is a buzz in the air. ......Maybe you can feel it.

    The angel gave Joseph a message that changed his plans. We will want to obey God too, when we realize Jesus saves us from our sins.

    The Christmas Angels – Part 3 CCCH 12-19-99 INTRODUCTION Step with me, if you will, for a moment into the world of the Middle East around 3 B.C. It’s difficult to do, I know, but we have a good reference here. A. After learning about Mary’s pregnancy, Joseph was faced with a tough decision. ...read more

    There are three points to this sermon. 1. God gives courage to ordinary people. 2. God gives us courage to overcome our doubts and fears. 3. God gives us courage to face the future.

    (This sermon is a re-working of “The Nativity Story: The Courage of Joseph” by C. Raymond van Pletsen. I used some of the same wording and illustrations but changed the outline and applications. I only spoke of movies I had seen and since I am not a sports fan changed the ending.) Christmas ...read more
