Fourth Sunday Of Advent, Year A

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Dec 2, 2019

The same sign given to Ahaz and Joseph is given to you and me. "The virgin has conceived and has given birth to a Son. And He is Emmanuel. God with us." His name is Jesus.

God's Dream Fulfilled

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 5, 2021

The plan of salvation was a dream of God even before He created man. He knew the consequences of making a free will creature, and He knew sin and death was inevitable. But it was worth it, for He had a plan of salvation that would be a dream come true.

Both in their late 20's and parents of two young children, they were presumed dead when their small plane went down in the mountains of the Wyoming-Utah boarder. Hundreds of planes searched in vain for nearly a ...read more
