    The slaughter of the innocents was a dreadful historic moment but how did Herod see it?

    On Palm Sunday expectations as to who Jesus was did not meet with reality, Often when expectations don't meet with reality the outcome will be conflict, either internal or external. The religious people already had their minds set on an outcome for Jesus.

    Palm Sunday Sermon expectations? In Luke’s gospel as in all the Biblical gospels we are given a depiction of what is often referred to as the “Triumphal Entry”, we have this depiction of Jesus mysteriously instructing a couple of his disciples to head off into town and untie a ...read more

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Oct 22, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,419 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

    Even when we are in a place of exile, we must demonstrate unwavering obedience to God just as Joseph did. Joseph could not see all of God’s plan except for the next step.

    Poor baby Jesus! He’s only a small child, and already his life is in danger, as we heard in the passage from Matthew 2:13-23 earlier in this morning’s service. This passage is an example of how the events in the New Testament Gospels are the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies. For ...read more

    Christmas is only a few weeks away now, so I thought I would share with you guys some thoughts I’ve had regarding some of the more mysterious characters in Christ’s birth story -- that is, the wise men. The Bible doesn’t give a whole lot of specifics regarding these men, but it ...read more

  • A Carpenter's Dream

    Contributed by Perry Anderson on Dec 4, 2014
     | 6,650 views

    Although we know little about Joseph’s life, we know quite a bit about his character from his actions. He demonstrated great faith. We can learn much from living Holy lives by following the example set by Joseph.

    Joseph is too often overlooked in the Christmas story. We must never fail to acknowledge the role he played in the life of Jesus. It wasn't just a coincidence that he was engaged to be married to Mary. He was chosen by God for this special calling...to be the earthly father of Jesus. God in His ...read more

    For years I thought the only reason the Wisemen came to Jerusalem was to get directions. But I was wrong. What other possible reason could the Wisemen have had for going there?

    My home church met in a huge building. The main sanctuary had four sections of pews that ran back 12 rows or so and the back section had another 2 sets of pews. Then there were two balconies that ran along the sides of the main area. They said they could seat over 600 people in that building. ...read more

    Facing a new year we can learn from how the Magi visited Jesus

    It is disheartening when someone you’ve respected in their chosen field ends up being nothing more than a lost soul.
