    The magi brought extravagant gifts for the baby Jesus even though they could not know what this child would do. We know that Jesus the Christ is God and saves us from our sin. What gifts do we bring to our Lord?

    Today we observe Epiphany, the manifestation of Christ to the Gentiles, with the visitation of the magi to the baby Jesus. The visit of the magi is probably the most misunderstood part of the Christmas story. The magi are often depicted in nativity scenes as if they arrived for the birth of Jesus, ...read more

    Within one body, there are many individual members with specific and unique gifts. Our diversity does not create division or discord; in fact, it adds to the beauty and harmony of the whole. Such diversity within the body is within the Lord’s sovereign design for His church.

    The Gift of Grace Ephesians 4: 7-11 As we come to the text today, we must bear in mind the preceding verses. Paul has spoken at length regarding our unity in the Lord. We have been called to walk worthy of our calling, serving and loving one another, while endeavoring to keep the unity of the ...read more

    Have you ever stopped to consider the difference between a gift that falls flat and one that touches your heart? The perfect gift isn’t just about what’s given—it’s about the thought, intention, and love behind it, and that’s exactly what we see in God’s gifts to us.

    The Perfect Gift Have you ever received a gift that made you stop and think, “What were they thinking?” Maybe it was a half-burned candle, an unsolicited diet book, or a truly confusing gag gift. Let’s see a show of hands—who’s received a gift that left them scratching their heads? Now, imagine ...read more
