    Trusting God When Times Are Tough

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Jan 20, 2020
     | 2,796 views

    The season after Christmas can be blah. All the excitement is gone and we're left with the emotional crash after. This sermon speaks to how we can trust God when times are tough.

    Trusting God When Times Are Tough: The Christmas Hangover Have you ever had a hangover? I hear they can be rough. You know the story… the night before, you felt alive. You even loved everyone. Then you wake the next morning, and you can't say for sure, but you might be dead. Once in a while, ...read more

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

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Jan 20, 2020
     | 3,074 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.

    Stars and a Stable: Responding to Disappointments One of my closest friends loves UGA! He’s a graduate and a dedicated football loyalist. Now let’s not question his Christianity just yet. He has a saying, "When I die, make sure you chant the Eucharist at my funeral mass. And make sure the ...read more

    In Search of the King

    A. IN SEARCH OF THE KING – MATTHEW 2:1-2 1. Why were Mary and Joseph still living in Bethlehem?  So their son could be near the Temple.  So their son could identify with David. Bethlehem is the city of David and the angel predicted Jesus would sit on David’s ...read more

    Three wise came from east and brought gifts according to their capacities. God blessed them all equally.

    Three kinds people groups in the Society - Mt. 2:1-18 By Rev. Andrew B Natarajan 1. Wise men of the East (2:1-2,9-12) The first groups represent the people who are half-baked. They trust in God and trust in self-search. Basically self-satisfied, ...read more

    The Magi's Sign

    Contributed by D Marion Clark on Oct 5, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,732 views

    Christmas is also about the gifts we are to offer in return, not to earn God's favor, but like the magi it is worth a life’s journey to follow whatever destinations may be given us to worship and to give our treasures to our Savior and our King.

    Matthew 2:1-12 The Magi’s Sign 12/8/02 D. Marion Clark Introduction “Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are.” At least that is everyone’s concern about the star of Bethlehem. Of all the elements of the Christmas story, the visit of the magi who ...read more

    However crafty, however ruthless Herod might have been, he could be no more successful than his evil superior Satan. The Redeemer would come just as was planned, would live just as planned, and would die just as planned.

    Matthew 2:13-18 Rachel’s Sorrow 12/15/02 D. Marion Clark Introduction I do like our Live Nativity we put on at our church. We show the manger scene; we have a full inn, a market square retail booth, angels singing to shepherds, and a tax collector at his booth. We even have the three ...read more

    Joseph's Dreams

    Contributed by D Marion Clark on Oct 6, 2016
     | 6,630 views

    When it comes to dreaming, many readers think Matthew is the dreamer by the way he uses Old Testament Scripture to back up his story. Is Matthew too anxious to justify his story that he twists Scripture to suit his purpose?

    Matthew 2:19-23 Joseph’s Dreams 12/22/02 D. Marion Clark Introduction Do you sometimes wake up tired because of vivid dreams? I imagine Joseph had that problem. Matthew records four dreams through which an angel of the Lord spoke to him. The first dream was to assure him that he could ...read more

    Our Refuge And Strength Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Dec 26, 2021
     | 3,779 views

    This is a sermon for Epiphany Sunday. I've linked Psalm 46 with the hymn "We Three Kings" as a way of reminding ourselves who this child/King is why He is worthy of any all the gifts we have to give Him.

    Samuel could tell by the look on their faces that the elders weren’t making a social call to inquire about his health … and he was right. One of the elders cleared his throat. “Samuel … you are getting old and, well, no offense but we’re more than a little concerned about the future of our ...read more

    Jesus Is The King Series

     | 5,349 views

    We have some stories around the world about how the Kings became gods of their tribes then became to their nations, for, ex., Zeus, King Rama, King Buddha became gods, and King Nebuchadnezzar established an Image in his likeness to be worshipped (Daniel 2).

    Theme: Jesus the King Text: Matthew 2:1-11 Greetings: Illustration: A pastor was greeting the believers after the Christmas service. He saw a young man, called Jim, Pastor told Jim: “Jim, it’s time for you to join the Army of the Lord. We need to see you every Sunday.” Jim replied: “Pastor, I’m ...read more

    A new year's message to get us looking at God first.

    New Year Message January 2, 2022 This is really a great Sunday! When we think about the new year, there’s always the hope that the new year will be better than the prior year. If 2021 wasn’t the best year, then there’s the hope, maybe an expectation that 2022 will be better. And if 2021 was the ...read more

    Epiphany challenges us to think about who we might consider to be unworthy and how we, the Church, might reach out to them in Christian love.

    “The Challenge of Epiphany” Matthew 2:1-12 What image comes to your mind when you think of the Magi in Matthew’s Gospel? Having sat through a number of Christmas plays, it may be hard for us not to think of children wearing bathrobes and Burger King crowns, trying to look as important as ...read more

    The Epiphany Of The Lord-- The Divine Light Within

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Dec 31, 2021
     | 2,346 views

    The only evidence the Magi had as they entered the shabby surroundings of a manger was that this baby was being shined on by a star.

    I saw a comic strip recently about the star that guided the magi from the east. The star is nervous and sweating while placing a desperate 911 call, saying: “Operator, these three men on camels have been following me all night! I stop, they stop. I go, they go. I’m so scared….” The epiphany is ...read more

    Perhaps we can learn more about Jesus, and his wise visitors, by asking ourselves who was upset by these gifts?

    Epiphany Homily Gold, incense and myrrh. Treasure, sweet-smelling smoke and embalming spices. Three mysterious men from the East, who appear for a moment in Matthew's Gospel, bring gifts to the newborn Jesus, and then vanish into the history and theology books. In a new millennium, why should ...read more

    In Jesus' flight to Egypt and return from Egypt we see several powerful truths that let us know that there is indeed hope for our future.

    There Is Hope For Your Future Matthew 2:13-23 Good morning MGCC! HEY – as we begin I want to share some good news with you, in fact, it is great news.

    Forgotten Hero Of Christmas

     | 2,765 views

    Today as we approach Christmas, we need to look at one of the unrecognized heroes of the Christmas story.

    We all have heard many sermons on Christmas that dealt with: • THE VIRGIN • THE ANGELS • THE SHEPHERDS • THE INNKEEPERS • THE WISE MEN But there is one individual that is overlooked many times. WHO IS THAT? I am talking about Joseph, the earthly father of Jesus Christ. • It was indeed a SPECIAL ...read more
