    Responding To Disappointments: A Star And A Stable (Epiphany)

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Jan 20, 2020
     | 2,982 views

    Difficulties are part of life, how we respond is what makes the difference. Joseph and Mary faced the difficulty of being refugees in the land of Egypt in order to save the child Jesus from Herod. The "ah ha" moment is when we realize God is with us no matter where we find ourselves.

    God’s call to take the journey to worship the newborn king isn’t just for those born to privilege, or those born in the church. It isn’t just for pastors, scholars, and religious leaders. No, God’s call to worship is for anyone who will listen.

    OPENING STORY An old king sat uncomfortably on his throne, fingernails dug into well-worn grooves in the wood as he waited nervously for the mysterious travelers to approach. All Jerusalem was abuzz with the rumors that these men were searching for a new heir which had just been born, yet neither ...read more

    We are about to look at how different individuals approached Christmas. One of them took the wrong approach. The other two with the right approach to Christmas received a tremendous blessing at the first Christmas.

    After a man visited the Holy land, he described his experience. He was turned off by the commercialism.

    People Of The First Christmas-The Magi Or Wise Men Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Dec 29, 2020
     | 3,209 views

    Even though the Magi or "wise men" have had a Christmas carol or two (or more) written about them, they're only mentioned in one paragraph of Matthew's Gospel. They came from a far distance, worshiped the Christ Child, and then went back home, never to be heard from again.

    Introduction: the shepherds of Bethlehem were the only recorded visitors to go see Joseph, Mary, and Baby Jesus on the night He was born. Sometime later, Matthew recorded that “wise men (KJV)” or magi (several other translations) came to Jerusalem. The purpose of their visit was to worship the One ...read more
