    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?

    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

In a new millennium, why should ...read more

     | 2,746 views

    Jesus is the only way to be saved. The Christmas story reemphasizes that He alone is the Light of the world.

    “May I help you?” Sometimes those are the most welcomed words I could hear, in the right situation. Sometimes, I really want to hear them… It’s usually in a grocery store the size of the moon, and I’m wandering around looking for something that I’ve never had to find before. Or, I’m in Crimson ...read more

    This message focuses on the wise men and the gifts they presented to the newborn Savior. In viewing the symbolism of the gifts, we can learn more about the great plan of our Lord to save His people from their sins.

    I wish to begin this morning with a prophecy of the Messiah found in Isaiah 60:1-3, and verse 6: “Arise, shine; for your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. For behold the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness the people; but the Lord will arise over you, and ...read more

    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

     | 3,202 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

    The past perfect used in this way is known as “tenses of vision” or the “prophetic perfect.” Isaiah is assuring us that the message being proclaimed will surely come to pass.

    A customer called the customer service line to complain about a power outage after a big storm, then stopped raging long enough to ask, “How will I know when my lights are back on?” The customer service agent remained silent for a second, debating about the best way to answer such an obvious, even ...read more
