  • Everybody’s God

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jan 7, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,396 views

    The story of the wise men reminds us we worship a God above political might, a God over religious complacency, and a God over cultural prejudice. Often God colors outside the lines, moving in ways that shatter our assumptions. Our God is everybody's God!

    Matthew 2:1-12 Everybody’s God Today we conclude the “twelve days of Christmas,” that period of time between Christmas day and Epiphany, celebrated just yesterday. In church history, Epiphany marks the arrival of the wise men, the magi from afar bringing gifts to celebrate the newborn king. ...read more

    ..................... Led by a star. Except it wasn’t actually a star that led Agnes to travel her 7252 mile odyssey from her home to where God led her. It started in Agnes’s childhood with her mother saying: “My Child, never eat a single mouthful unless you are sharing it with others.” “Mama, who ...read more

     | 5,985 views

    How do we plan our lives and actually do it?

    As I noted last week, we closed the year 2017 and look forward to a new year by thinking about the 7 P’s for the Christian life: Pray, Plan, Pray, Prioritize, Pray, Proceed, Praise! Last week we made a note of praying and praising from 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18…... How thankful were we the last week? ...read more

  • Herod And The Magi – A Story Of Adoration Series

    Contributed by Pat Damiani on May 9, 2016
    based on 3 ratings
     | 11,354 views

    Like the magi’s journey to Bethlehem, a life devoted to the adoration of Jesus is costly and requires preparation and often takes us through difficulty.

    Sometime early in this century it became fashionable to use the expression “war on Christmas” to cover everything related to any kind of controversy about the observance of Christmas in our culture. While some of the issues that fall under that heading certainly ought to be of concern ...read more

  • Taking The Journey

    Contributed by Ian Hyde on Apr 1, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,366 views

    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

  • Christmas In The Rearview Mirror?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Dec 28, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,226 views

    Once Christmas is over, we usually pack up our decorations, lights, ribbon, dishes, Christmas tree, etc., and carry them to the attic for storage until next year. In other words, we put Christmas away. This isn't God's will; we should live it all year round!

    CHRISTMAS IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR? Matthew 2:1-12 INTRODUCTION A. ILLUSTRATION 1. It was a few days after Christmas. A family was busy cleaning up and putting away the Christmas decorations. As they took down the Christmas tree, the son asked “what are you doing?” The parents said, “We’re putting ...read more

  • The Search For Truth Series

    Contributed by Scott Turansky on Jan 1, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,457 views

    The further you pursue science in any discipline, you're going to get to Jesus Christ. Because that's where the truth is. If you have an open heart and you pursue science to its fullest, you're going to get to God and you're going to understand more about who God is.

    Today we're going to look at the wise men. In order to look at the wise men, we have to go back about 600 years to start our story. The story takes place, I'm going to say, about 600 years before with a man named Belteshazzar. You might not know him. You might know him as Daniel. The ...read more

  • New Year, New Road

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Jan 9, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,643 views

    A new year always brings a sense of hope, doesn’t it? The previous year with all its tragedies, problems, disappointments, failures, and sadness is now behind us, and a clean slate lies ahead.

    A new year always brings a sense of hope, doesn’t it? The previous year with all its tragedies, problems, disappointments, failures, and sadness is now behind us, and a clean slate lies ahead. This is symbolized on New Year’s Eve by the old man with the sickle and the newborn baby. The old has ...read more

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Jan 9, 2023
     | 2,188 views

    I realize that we are already past the Christmas season, but the action of the wise men and their desire to worship our Lord Jesus should be an example to us as we begin this new year.

    Alba 1-8-2023 THE WORSHIP OF THE WISEMEN Matthew 2:1-12 Three small boys were in a Christmas play. They were the three wise men, and they had to give their gifts to Jesus. The first boy stepped forward, held out the gift in his hands and said, “Gold.” The second boy stepped forward, held out ...read more

    The wise men inquired concerning Christ, and listened to God.

    WISE MEN STILL SEEK HIM. Matthew 2:1-12. The second chapter of Matthew’s Gospel begins with a basic fact: “Jesus was born in Bethlehem.” Outside the context of Scripture it would be no more remarkable than saying, “Fred was born in Birmingham,” or “Shirley was born in Cape Town.” However, the ...read more

  • Christ Came For All Of Us

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Oct 22, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,377 views

    The wise men represent us in God’s plan. They represent everyone who sets out in search of a king and finds the son of God. They gave Jesus the most precious material gifts they had and each and every one of us can give him something even better-ourselves

    Today we celebrate the Feast of the Epiphany. We remember the visit of the three wise men, but we also remember that Jesus came into the world for everyone-Jews and Gentiles, rich and poor, upper class people and lower class people, humble shepherds and wise men and so on. It is also a happy ...read more
