    based on 9 ratings
     | 6,486 views

    One of the greatest tragedies in the Bible is the killing of the innocents. As terrible as the story is, though, it does show us how God moves in the middle of tragedies and injustices.

    Matthew 2:13-23 “God’s Guiding Hand” INTRODUCTION While we were celebrating the gift of Jesus with our family and friends, a lot was going on around the world. Bhutto was assassinated in Pakistan causing the country to more social and political upheaval. Several of our troops were killed in ...read more

    Finding Out Who Really Cares Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 6, 2008
     | 3,008 views

    Who really cares? NOT those who are full of fear, like Herod. But those who believe from the beginning and who give gifts for the future, like the wise men; and those who sacrifice to protect, like Joseph.

    Some people have friends. Some people have enemies. Most people have acquaintances. But everybody has people you do business with. The people you do business with -- usually, that’s not an intimate relationship. It’s distant, it’s limited to transactions. We deal with people who may not even ...read more

    A look at the slaughter of the innocents story in light of the recent tragedy in Conn.

    Prop: put a skull and crossbones “ornament” on the sanctuary Christmas tree. Talk about how it doesn't fit with the image. There's a story in the Bible that's part of the Christmas story that creates a similar disconnect. In fact, the disparity between it and the way we want the ...read more

    We say we believe that God is in control. But do we really believe it?

    “Faithful Living: In the Year of Our Lord” Matthew 2:13-23 A few years ago Twila Paris recorded a sing entitled “God is in Control.” It was quite a testimony and many of us sang along with gusto and conviction!

    The devil seeks to terrorise our own souls, but he will fail. In the end Satan cannot snuff out the anointing within us.

I love the Christmas story because it is in no way like Christmas cards. The Christmas story is not neat nor is it perfect. It isn’t tidy or ...read more
