     | 2,853 views

Yes, it gets out of hand. And yes, it’s very commercial. But still, gift-giving is a part of the joy of the ...read more

    A Boy Named Jesus

    Contributed by Carl Greene on Dec 31, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,110 views

    This message deals with the significance of Jesus’ name(s). The focus is about "God with us" vs God "is" with us. The importance of having God "within" us, guiding, comforting, encouraging, loving. Not alongside us, but "with" us.

I always had a fondness ...read more
