    Why Does God Allow These Struggles?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Nov 28, 2017
     | 7,268 views

    A look at the Christmas passage - specifically, the struggle of Mary and Joseph having the baby in Bethlehem far from home. A look at four ways God uses our struggles in our lives.

    Mary And Joseph’s Road Trip: “Why does God allow these struggles in my life?” - Luke 2:3-6. - The trip to Bethlehem under such difficult circumstances had to be a struggle. Did they have questions? I know I would have. “God, why are You allowing this?” “God, have You forgotten us?” “God, ...read more

    What Am I Supposed To Do With My Unanswered Questions?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 1, 2017
     | 6,005 views

    This message focuses on Luke 2:6-7 and the unanswered questions that Mary and Joseph must have had as they end up in with no decent place to stay when the baby comes. How could God be with them and she have to put the baby in a manger?

    SOME OF MARY AND JOSEPH'S QUESTIONS: “God, why have the birth so far from home?” “God, why didn’t You provide a place for us to stay?” “God, how can this be the place for the miracle child to be born?” - Luke 2:6-7. - I’m sure when the angel visited Mary and told her that she’d be carrying this ...read more

    God's Gifts Have Thorns

    Contributed by Arthur Miller on Dec 18, 2017

     | 8,705 views

    When we look at Mary and the birth of Jesus we see a struggle of being pregnant and no one believing her. Why did the angel only tell her? Wouldn't a family meeting with all the parties be more appropriate? We will see that God's gifts have thorns!

    God’s Gifts Have Thorns Matthew1:18-25 and Luke1:26-56 & 2:1-39 Today is Sunday, December 24, 2017. A day known around the world in many different languages as Christmas Eve. This is an exciting time of the year! There are those that love the holiday but hate what this day represents. There are ...read more

    If there is evil in our lives, God has to permit it to happen, or it wouldn’t. But God never wills evil. He only wants our good.

    Thursday of 27th Week in Course 2017 Reformation/Revolution Who among us has not looked on some captain of industry or some venal politician and wondered why “evildoers not only prosper but when they put God to the test they escape.’” as the people did in Malachi’s day?

    Today we learn about the birth of Jesus Christ so that we can understand the reason for his birth.

    Scripture We are studying the Gospel of Luke in a series of sermons I am calling, “To Seek and To Save the Lost.” Today I would like to study one of the best-known passages in all of Scripture. It is read every Christmas in almost every church all over the world. It is Luke’s ...read more

    Christ loves us too much to let us coast.

    Monday of 33rd Week in Course 2012 Vatican II–Lumen Gentium Not Abandoning Our First Love One of the greatest temptations of life is to coast. We come to a point of satisfaction in some area of our living, and just want that to last forever. So we stop taking risks, we stop putting extra ...read more

    A Carpenter's Dream

    Contributed by Perry Anderson on Dec 4, 2014
     | 6,700 views

    Although we know little about Joseph’s life, we know quite a bit about his character from his actions. He demonstrated great faith. We can learn much from living Holy lives by following the example set by Joseph.

    Joseph is too often overlooked in the Christmas story. We must never fail to acknowledge the role he played in the life of Jesus. It wasn't just a coincidence that he was engaged to be married to Mary. He was chosen by God for this special calling...to be the earthly father of Jesus. God in His ...read more

    Mary anchored her faith in the promise God made to Abraham; faith is a response to a "Thou" who calls us by name.

    A re-imagining of the role of the innkeeper in the nativity story of Christ.

    Then she gave birth to her firstborn Son, and she wrapped Him snugly in cloth and laid Him in a feeding trough--because there was no room for them at the lodging place. Luke 2:7 Now, that’s our verse and it comprises, so far as I know, everything we know about the lodging arrangements, and ...read more

    Fourth Sunday Of Advent, A--Four Advent Annunciations

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Nov 8, 2022
     | 1,996 views

    To all the Marys everywhere; to all the Josephs everywhere; to all the Pauls everywhere; and to even all the Ahazes everywhere.

    There are four annunciations or announcements in our Gospel this Sunday. 1. To all the Marys everwhere— Mary’s Annunciation— reminds me of an advertising slogan for a shoe company that says, “No great story starts, “it was cold, so I stayed in.” In classical Greek and Roman mythology every ...read more

    Giving Extravagantly

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 2, 2019

    How extravagantly do we give? Do we give God our best or our leftovers? Let’s look at Mary’s anointing of Jesus in John 12:1-8.

    One of the greatest secrets of the universe is in Jesus’ words, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ (Acts 20:35) It’s a simple gauge as to how blessed we are. Are we generous? How extravagantly do we give? Do we give God our best or our leftovers? Let’s look at Mary’s anointing of Jesus ...read more

    Preparing For Easter-An Outline For 'i Am The Resurrection And The Life'

    Jesus had received a message that a friend, Lazarus, was sick. He died, but Jesus raised him from the dead. This proved Jesus was "the Resurrection and the Life"!

    Introduction: Jesus had raised at least two people from the dead before this event, apparently just a short time before He died on Calvary. Here He proved the reality of resurrection when He raised Lazarus from the dead. The Message Jesus Received (verses 1-16) --Jesus and the disciples weren’t ...read more
