    "Christ Is Christmas" Luke 2:1-14 After Jesus was born, He was wrapped in strips of cloth and placed in a manger. A manger, of course, is a feeding trough from which donkeys, horses, and other animals eat. I don't know about you, but when I think of the manger I picture it made out of ...read more

    A sermon for Christmas Eve.

    "Christ is Christmas" Luke 2:1-10 Jesus Christ was born into the real world--our world--a world where women and children are brutalized, where people are machine-gunned into mass graves, where crucifixion still takes place, where babies are murdered and abducted. Jesus Christ was born into the ...read more

    In the Gospel of Luke, we come across two characters who make their appearance in the final acts of the Christmas drama. One is a man named Simeon; the other is a woman named Anna. They don’t appear in any nativity scenes or in many Christmas cards, but

    Puts things in perspective, doesn’t it? The message is the same this Christmas. Because of the Father’s love … whoever takes the Son gets it all. Will you take Him this Christmas?

    Jesus is the true Christmas light and if we want out of the darkness we need to accept Him into our lives.

    The Christmas Light Text: Jn. 1:6-13 Introduction 1. Illustration: History records for us an interesting footnote. It was during the dark winter of 1864. a.

    Set aside the stress. Come to Jesus. Then tell everybody about Him. It’s the only way to face another Monday and all the days ahead.

    Poor 4-year-old Landry, from Andover, Kansas, hesitated to go to school on another Monday this last winter (February 28, 2022). Here he is caught on his home’s outdoor security camara. Take a look (show video: 4-year-old has severe case of the Monday’s; www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9NeN8emtCM ). The ...read more

    An Epiphany sermon I preached on 1/7/2009 at the Salem Lutheran Home chapel, Elk Horn, Iowa.

    In some ways, you could say that Epiphany is the “last hurrah” of Christmas. It’s the day when we remember the visit of the wise men, or magi as they are called in our text, to worship the Christ child and present the gifts of Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh. It’s a great scene, one that’s often ...read more

    What do you think about when you think of Christmas? What words pop into your mind? Home? Family? Gifts? Crowds? Jesus? Food? Santa Claus? All of these, & more, I imagine!

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (Revised: 2014) Why does Christmas seem to be so much more important than all the other holidays of the year? Why is so much attention given to Christmas? Mother's Day, Father's Day, 4th of July are important holidays, but put ...read more

    God saves you FROM sin. He saves you FOR a purpose. He saves you BY His grace.

    There is a purpose in everything we do. • We do not wake up every morning and then go through the motions of living. We make plans and seek to achieve something. It is odd to do anything without purpose. • If we know that, then we can expect God to have a purpose when He sent Jesus ...read more
