    The Magi heard the Word of God from the mouth of the most wicked man in the kingdom, Herod; never the less, the Holy Spirit used that word to establish faith in them moving them to continue their journey to worship the one, true king.

    The Epiphany of our Lord Matthew 2__1-12 Sun, Jan 6, 2008 First: Is. 60:1-6 Epistle: Eph. 3:1-12 Gospel: Matt. 2:1-12 Psalm: Psalm 72:1-11 (12-15) There is a story that I heard so long ago that I can’t remember who first told it.

    Dark Christmas Matthew 2:1-12 Well, like Christmas, this “perspective series” is coming to an end.

  • The Nazarene

    Jesus "fills full" the prophecies that Messiah would be a Nazarene and a light to the Gentiles. His place of birth and service is part of his humiliation as God reached down to lift us up.

    Matthew 2__19-23 The Nazarene "Jesus of Nazareth" Jesus moved from Bethlehem in Judea to Nazareth in Galilee with a stopover in Egypt. Saying you are from Nazareth is a bit like saying you live in Shelbyville or Knightstown. You aren’t living in a place known for its class or appeal. ...read more

    Christmas Series

    THE ADVENTURE IN THE ADVENT (MATTHEW 2:1-12) Three weeks before Christmas, I was tricked by the moderator who wished worshippers with a “Happy Holidays” greeting at the start of worship.

    Jesus was born into a sin filled and cruel world. Spiritual warfare was focused on one child born in Bethlehem who gives victory over death to all HIs followers.

    Many times we think of Mary’s role in the birth of Jesus, but Matthew records the difficult road Joseph had to travel in protecting this little life that the enemy wanted to snuff out.

    Have you noticed that the first chapters of Matthew are really Joseph’s story? Luke records Mary’s version of events and has her genealogy, but Matthew one is Joseph’s lineage, and her in Chapter 2 we find God again speaking to Joseph about caring for the safety of the Messiah. As a father, the ...read more
