    How God’s gift of Jesus is one gift after another!

    In only four days it will be Christmas Day. I hope Christmas shopping hasn’t got you down…fighting the traffic and the crowds at the mall, spending all that money, putting up with unfriendly shoppers & sales clerks… It was a few days before Christmas on the Oregon coast. Two men whose families ...read more

    The King of Eternity came into this world and the world had no idea what had taken place. Politicians, Priests, and the Public missed one of the greatest miracles ever for they weren’t looking for Him. Are we any different?

    THEY WEREN’T LOOKING FOR HIM Matthew 2:1-18 Introduction: When we consider the events surrounding the birth of Jesus Christ, we quite often forget the obscurity in which the events took place. The appearance of the wise men and the reaction of their message reveal the depth of that obscurity. The ...read more

    Points out that this time of year is a celebration of the birth of Christ. And that we should treat December 25th as we would any other persons’ birthday. It causes us to reflect on the heart of Herod and ours during this time of year.

    Christ is Christmas Matthew 2:1-12 “Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.

    We can learn from the Wise Men what is required to take a "Star Trek" which leads to Jesus.

    THE ORIGINAL “STAR TREK” Matthew 2:1-12 READ BUBBA CLAUS (David Dykes)(Listed at the end of the message) * Do you know what a “Trekkie” is? Well, I am one.

    Today, we look at the wise men. There is one thing which sets this God encounter apart from the others in the Nativity story. Mary, the shepherds and Joseph weren’t expecting or looking for anything special to happen in their lives. The Magi weren’t eithe

    What must Mary have thought when she first opened the door and found a group of Iranian astrologers, there to celebrate the birth of her son?.

    The Xmas season is over! We’ve wished each other a Merry Xmas AND a Happy New Year, and now the festive season is PAST. The holidays (for most of us) are over.

    What must Mary have thought when she first opened the door and found a group of Iranian astrologers, there to celebrate the birth of her son? These characters seem so inappropriate in the Christmas narrative, but maybe that’s the point?

    Follow In the Wisemen’s Footsteps 1) Confident of the way to heaven 2) Humble in your approach to heaven

    Did you hear the one about had the wisemen been wisewomen? They would have stopped for directions sooner allowing them to arrive in time to sweep the barn, make a casserole, and help deliver the baby. They would have also brought practical gifts! Seriously though, the Magi (as Scripture calls ...read more

    This sermon takes a look at the Magi.

    I read this humors account of the Wise Men (obviously written by a woman): If it had been ‘Wise Women’ instead of ‘Wise Men’, they would have asked directions, arrived on time, helped deliver the baby, cleaned the stable, made a casserole, and brought practical gifts from Baby’s-R-Us, including ...read more

    God’s timing is not always our timing, but it is always right. Here’s how to wait on Him.

    Matthew 2:1-23 Luke 2:21-40 2 Peter 3:8-9 1 Samuel 13:5-14 Waiting on God’s Timing I think that almost every Christmas pageant, Christmas card and manger scene that you see has the wise men showing up at the stable. Even the movie, “the Nativity Story” has them at the stable. It’s not wrong to ...read more

    The Magi - their openness and responsiveness to God’s leading is an example for us today.

    Christmas is a wonderful time of year, don’t you think? The lights, the songs, the decorations… they all seem to add so much. And there are a lot of traditions and a lot of other things that have become a part of the whole Christmas experience. And there’s always such a build-up toward the big day, ...read more

    The three gifts of the Magi symbolically represent gifts that we too can bring our Lord.

    The wise men meet the sneaky king

    At last, our wise men show up. Although our manger scenes usually include them, we can see from this passage they probably don’t arrive until Jesus is several months old. They meet him, Mary and Joseph in a house in Bethlehem and give their gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. Then, because ...read more
