     | 4,517 views

    Lo que determina el éxito de una persona no son las cosas que tiene, sino que propósito tiene con esas cosas.

    Lo que determina el éxito de una persona no son las cosas que tiene, sino que propósito tiene con esas cosas. Hay personas que tienen muchas cosas tantas que no saben qué hacer con ellas, hay otras que tienen pocas cosas pero si saben para que son y qué hacer con ellas.

    The Part Of The Christmas Story That Speaks To Sandy Hook Tragedy

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 18, 2012
     | 3,810 views

    A look at the slaughter of the innocents story in light of the recent tragedy in Conn.

    Prop: put a skull and crossbones “ornament” on the sanctuary Christmas tree. Talk about how it doesn't fit with the image. There's a story in the Bible that's part of the Christmas story that creates a similar disconnect. In fact, the disparity between it and the way we want the ...read more

    The Epiphany story is often overlooked, or focuses only on the first part of the story. The Epiphany story groups manhood into three groups.

    Three Types of Men and Their Legacies Matthew 2:1-23 The Wise Men A. Wise Men Seek, v. 1, Magi Searched the Scriptures (background) B. Wise Men Ask, v. 2 C. Wise Men Knock, v.11 D.

    The Contrast Of Two Kings

    Contributed by Ron Tuit on Dec 30, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,006 views

    The story of the Wise Men of Christmas shows the sharp contrast of two kings:King Jesus and King Herod. It also shows the sharp contrast of two Kingdoms.

    The Contrast of Two Kings of Christmas Matthew 2 I. King Herod WAS: A. preoccupied with power, prestige and possessions B. preoccupied with paranoia and self-preservation. II. King Jesus IS still: A. filled with promise. B. filled with peace and paternal glory: Nazareth: “the ...read more

    The Murderous Search Of Herod Series

    Contributed by Tim Smith on Jan 6, 2013
     | 5,328 views

    This series looks at the 5 stories after Jesus was born and the one thing whic unites all of them: their search for the Christ. Today’s scripture is disturbing at best. It is not a story we sing about, or is on the cover of Christmas cards. Most of us wo

    King Herod’s Murderous Search Matthew 2:1-16 Typically in Advent, we look at the passages and stories leading up to the birth of the Christ child like the prophet’s announcment of Jesus’ birth, Mary’s encounter with the angel, the Magnificat and the journey to Bethlehem. ...read more

    In The Year Of Our Lord Series

    We say we believe that God is in control. But do we really believe it?

    “Faithful Living: In the Year of Our Lord” Matthew 2:13-23 A few years ago Twila Paris recorded a sing entitled “God is in Control.” It was quite a testimony and many of us sang along with gusto and conviction! It stated musically what we believe theologically - that “No matter what, God is in ...read more

    When God Seem To Be Asking For Too Much From You

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Oct 25, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,386 views

    A look at the conditional obedience we often offer God, in comparison with Joseph's complete and costly obedience.

    ASKING TOO MUCH? Often our willingness to obey God comes with a pre-set spending limit. Main illustration: An American Express card vs. a Walmart pre-loaded card. This is a Walmart pre-loaded card with $50 on it. If I give it to you, you can buy whatever you want. . . up to $50. This is an ...read more

    The Massacre Of The Innocents

    based on 11 ratings
     | 9,746 views

    The devil seeks to terrorise our own souls, but he will fail. In the end Satan cannot snuff out the anointing within us.

    THE MASSACRE OF THE INNOCENTS. Matthew 2:16-18. You might not be surprised if I told you that the devil is pacing up and down in this earth as an adversary, like a lion seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8). Satan (literally, the Adversary) boasted of the same thing long ago when he appeared ...read more

    A Christmas sermon told in the first-person from the perspective of a Bethlehem citizen.

    If Only I Had Known! Matthew 2:1-14 "Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying, “Where is he who has been born king of the Jews?" "Then Herod summoned the wise men secretly and ascertained from them what ...read more

    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

    Christ came to be an example of servanthood, so that we may learn how to be a servant to others.

    CHRIST CAME TO BE A SERVANT MATTHEW 2:17-28 WHEN IT COMES TO UNDERSTANDING THE STORY OF ADVENT, IT IS NECESSARY TO LOOK AT THE LIFE OF JESUS AFTER HE WAS BORN. AS WE STUDY HIS LIFE AND MINISTRY WE WILL FIND PURPOSE FOR OUR OWN, BECAUSE AS CHRISTIANS WE HAVE CHRIST IN US. COLOSSIANS 1:24-29 NOW I ...read more

    The Christmas story is all about God's love for you.

    `“The Christmas Story” Matthew 2:1-16 “The Christmas story is fascinating to me. There is so much going on. God the Creator takes on human form as a baby. He was born in a barn with all those colorful images; Wisemen from the East came to see Him after following a star that led the way to ...read more

     | 17,153 views

    This telling of the birth of Christ is a mixture of narrative and historical facts. My prayer is that it blesses you.

    Many of us know the “Christmas Story” oh so well. And no, I’m talking about the one with the “Red rider BB gun”. That “Christmas Story” is very humorous and it’s a lot of fun to watch. But there was nothing humorous about what happened in Bethlehem and the neighboring villages as a result of the ...read more

    Herod, Dead Babies, And Hope Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 23, 2017

    There was a time in the seventies of the last century when Catholics seemed to stand alone among the Christian churches in their condemnation of abortion. Now they often stand with us outside the abortion mills and pro-choice lectures, praying.

    Feast of the Holy Innocents 2017 Reformation/Revolution I don’t think it is possible to read or hear the account of the flight into Egypt and the intentional murder of an unknown number of children by Herod dispassionately. St. Matthew, writing at least forty years after these events, is probably ...read more

    When Life Seems To Have No Rhyme

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,103 views

    While life may often seem to lack coherence, Matthew 2:1-15 shows us that God gives it His own unique cadence and rhythm. Ultimately, we don't have to have all of the answers if we know the One who does, and we humbly follow His lead.

    When Life Seems To Have No Rhyme Matthew 2:1-15 1. The Magi left for the land of Israel "on the brink…" - “A crucial or critical threshold, beyond which success or catastrophe occurs” - The Magi were on the brink of making a great personal discovery. - The chief ...read more
