    It’s an odd phenomena: people stealing the baby Jesus from Nativity scenes. It’s called the "Stolen Baby Jesus Syndrome." Why would people do that, and what does it tell us about mankind and God?

    OPEN: A few years back, Wellington, FL had their baby Jesus stolen two years running. This was a wealthy community and their Jesus was worth around $1800. The third time around they put a GPS inside and traced the thief to her home. But the baby Jesus doesn’t have to be expensive. In 2008, in ...read more

    But there is one gift that meets everyone's need, one gift that never breaks, one gift that will never wear out. The most valuable gift of all, is Jesus. Beloved, Let Jesus Show. (Great Illustration that allows a good ending to the Message).

    Words spread easily. Kudzu was introduced from Asia for soil erosion control. But the problem with Kudzu is it easily spreads and suffocates native plants and even trees. Knowing that your words can spread so easily, think before you speak.

    I want to speak to you about 5 Ways to Speak without Regret. Let’s talk about the power of your words for the next few minutes. We continue a series entitled Give Me THAT Attitude. Often, we tell our children, “Don’t you give me that attitude.” This is the exact opposite. These are attitudes we ...read more

    His coming was the plan of God, the proof of His love and the provision for our salvation.

    I encourage you to watch The Nativity Story with your family or friends. Then, after the movie, you can share the good news of salvation to them.

    With the Christmas season upon us, we as the Church need to spread the word that Christmas is the time of year where we celebrate the birth of the Messiah. The Christmas story is the story of the virgin birth. It is a story of spiritual warfare. It is the story of Salvation.

    With the Christmas season upon us, we as the Church need to spread the word that Christmas is the time of year where we celebrate the birth of the Messiah. Many people in the world today argue that Jesus wasn't really born on December 25th and that we are foolish to say that He was. First of ...read more

    The essentials of the Christmas story are present in the deliverance of the man who had the Legion.

    It’s been said that “Familiarity breeds contempt.” Now, that’s not always the case. Certainly, in a close relationship, like a marriage, intimate, loving familiarity becomes one of the “load-bearing walls.” It’s what keeps the structure standing upright. It’s what supports the weight and ...read more

    There are some stories that are so wonderful they leave us feeling blessed just by hearing them. The story of God's extravagant love is one such story.

    There are certain stories that at the moment you read them or hear them they have the ability to really tug on the strings of the heart. They are so moving, so beautiful that you can’t help but feel blessed just by the mere fact of having heard or read them. This is exactly the way I felt when I ...read more

    We often think of the Christmas story being the whole story, or the beginning of the Jesus story that ends with his resurrection, but in reality it goes much further than that

    “I love it when a plan comes together.” Those of you who are older than dirt probably remember this phrase being used by Hannibal Smith in the A-Team.
