“Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.” Ah. Those words just don’t have the same ring in English as they do in Aramaic. That was the language I spoke when I delivered that greeting for the first time 2,000 years ago. I am the angel, Gabriel. I am the one who ...read more

Noah. David. Daniel. Are these the people that come to mind when you think of faith-action heroes? Spending your life’s savings to build a boat that may never see water seems like a pointless waste.

Mary and all Israel hoped in a Savior who would provide His people with salvation from sin and redemption unto God. In this passage, Mary was finally able to confidently declare her hope aloud through song and call Him “God my Savior.”

Walking The Road To Bethlehem: Mary Learns She Will Bear The Son Of God

Why do we remind ourselves of the coming of Jesus? I always wondered that as a child. The reason is very simple: The cares of this world, job, college, family, and the various pleasures of life can crowd out the true center of our lives, which is Jesus.

Welcome, officially to the Christmas season. As we call it, “advent.” Why do we have this season of advent? What is advent? Advent literally means “the arrival.” And specifically, the arrival of an important individual. So this advent season we’re going to be taking a journey, to recall and refresh ...read more

A famous actor was invited to a dinner party. After the main course, the actor was asked if he would be willing to recite a piece of poetry for the guests.

The actor readily agreed and asked if someone at the dinner table would like to suggest what he should recite. There was a deadly hush until an old clergyman raised his hand and said: “May I ask you to recite the 23rd Psalm?” The actor was rather taken back but agreed, saying: “I will recite Psalm ...read more

It’s not are we worthy – but will we accept Gods will and tasks for us?
