     | 3,865 views

    The love Mary & Joseph had for each other, coupled with the love they had for God, culminates in one of the greatest love stories ever told - the story of Christmas.

    Christmas: From Joseph’s Eyes I’ve watched the Jerry Springer Show a few times. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a Jerry Springer junkie, but the few times I have seen the show has given me a pretty good idea of how that program operates. You bring people onto the show with really messed up ...read more

     | 10,164 views

    The virgin birth is not just an option to be considered indeed what we need to understand is that the Virgin Birth rests on the “great divide” that separates those who believe the Bible is God’s Word, and those who don’t.

    God used Joseph, who was a man of conviction and compassion, to be the earthly "daddy" of Jesus.

    Intro. Joseph - Greatness is the backdrop of the Godly man we will observe today. Not much is known of his life. But I believe when we get to heaven, Joseph will be honored beyond belief. He was a good man. A hard working, carpenter. We do not find him in the Scriptures after ...read more

    In Matthew 1 we read about the first Christmas, a story that begins in brokeness and ends in hope and promise. Just like our stories because of Christ’s grace and mercy!

In many respects, the most important word in the English language to each of us is our name. 3. The sound of our names has a ring to us that we like to hear – that is, unless we ...read more

    The idea that God is with us is ridiculous and radical - but real!

    “What’s Christmas All About? Joining the Family” Matthew 1:18-23 When I first saw the original movie “Home Alone” it brought back some memories for me.
