    Simeon waited all his life to experience Christmas and it finally happened. The reasons he got to personally see Jesus was because he was looking for Him, he was righteous and devout, and the Holy Spirit was on him. Let's be ready!

    SLOW AS CHRISTMAS Lk. 2:25-35 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Valerie Hughes and her husband were on the way to the hospital with their 15-year-old daughter who was scheduled to undergo a tonsillectomy. 2.

    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

    Jesus went from sitting on a throne to lying in a manger to hanging on a tree. He went from being a king with a crown to a baby with diapers to a criminal on the cross. Why did He do this?

    It’s three weeks and just twenty-one days until Christmas. Christmas is so exciting for so many reasons: students are soon to be out of school, teachers are soon to be off from school, and lights are everywhere. Who doesn’t like presents for everyone brimming from underneath a Christmas tree? Andy ...read more

    HoHum: “Blue Christmas” is one of the all time holiday classics each year during Christmas time. The heartbreaking song captures how lonely the season can be without the one we love, which is probably why it’s been a staple for over 70 years. The song was written in 1948. The most famous version ...read more

    This sermon is about putting Christ first in our Christmas and offers the wisdom of Solomon that puts us in the proper place. Advent and Christmas are not about us, they are about receiving the greatest gift ever given, Jesus Christ.

    If you leave the Christmas story in Matthew and Luke, you do not recognize how long God was planning and preparing and moving all of the pieces of the world in order for us to receive the greatest gift that has ever been given to man, which is Jesus Christ, His Son.

    We often sell ourselves short when we say to each other simple clichés, like, "Jesus is the reason for the season". Now, I'm not shaming anybody who's used it because it works at this time of year. But the reality of it is, is Jesus is not the reason for the season. Jesus is ...read more

    The Christmas Star

    Contributed by Richard Stevens on Sep 17, 2024

    The Star of Christmas is not the star that led the Maji from Mesopotamia to Jerusalem and ultimately to Bethlehem. It's not the star on the top of our Christmas tree, not Santa Claus, not our good feelings, good will, gifts, hopes for peace, celebrations or any of the rest.

    SLIDE – Introduction I want to talk a little while this morning about the Star of Christmas. Now, I’m NOT talking about the Star that appeared to the Maji. That Star they led from Mesopotamia over to Jerusalem. That Star that King Herod couldn’t see and didn’t know about. So, Herod called ...read more

    The eternally liberal town of Eugene, Oregon lost their cross a few years ago. It used to overlook the town from Skinner Butte, but after a heated battle it was replaced by an American flag.
