    What Does Jesus Want This Christmas?

    Contributed by Howard Harden on Dec 12, 2002

    Through Mary’s gift, we see an example of what Jesus wants, and does not want from you and me, not just at Christmas, but every day of the year.

    I think it’s safe to say that by and large, men need a lot of help in finding that perfect holiday gift. It just isn’t a talent that many men have.

    Funeral sermon for Mary Henry, aged 101, prayer warrior and Bible student, who, like the Biblical Mary, could accept whatever the Word taught her.

    Submission is not subservience. Humility is not the same thing as low self-esteem. In fact, it takes a strong and certain heart to be submissive and not subservient, to be humble and not cowardly. If ever there was a strong and certain heart, that was Mary Henry. She knew how to submit to all ...read more

    In Mark 14, we see four different group/people having different views of Jesus. They attach different value to Him. Consider Jesus’ value in your life as we ponder these perspectives.

    Let’s begin this morning with a multiple choice question: If you could become any one of these four people, which would you choose? (a) The richest, most successful businessman in the world; (b) The most popular, most attractive movie star in the world; (c) The president of the United States; ...read more

    "What Manner?"

    Contributed by Kenneth Trent on Aug 18, 2003
    based on 44 ratings
     | 3,380 views

    "What Manner?" goes beyond the question that arose in Mary’s mind on hearing the angel’s salutation. This question can well be posed in other important areas as well.

    WHAT MANNER? “And the angel came unto her, and said: Hail, thou who are highly favored, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and considered in her mind what manner of salutation this was.” Luke 1:28-29 "What Manner?" goes ...read more
