     | 4,796 views

    We often focus on issues that are insignificant rather than seeing the glory of the Lord shining through what has been written.

    “After Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying, ‘Where is he who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.’ When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, ...read more

    THE LOVE OF GOD Revelation 1:5-6, I John 3:1 This morning my subject is on something that we all need to know, that each of us need to experience.

     | 10,846 views

    We're the light of the world and children of light. Allow that light to shine brightly in our lives to light up those around us. Let’s expose their deeds as we seek to shine brightly for Jesus, so that they may be quickened and made light themselves.

    This is an image from my childhood that has just stuck with me. It’s from one of those movies that we used to watch over and over again, at least every holiday. It’s from the last of the original, and good, Star Wars movies. In my mind, it’s one of the pivotal scenes from the ...read more

    We are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. We are not called to withdraw from public life into our safe and cozy Christian circles. We are called to make a difference in a world full of darkness, fear, violence, and foolishness.

    [Sermon preached on 21 October 2018, Reformation Sunday / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] We sing it almost every Sunday in church with the kids: “This little light of mine—I’m gonna let it shine. Everywhere I go, I’m gonna let it shine.” But I wonder how many of us really think about what we sing. ...read more

     | 78 views

    Looking to God's Messiah is what brings true restoration to humanity, and sadly, even an esteemed teacher of Israel (Nicodemus) missed this. Today, we either believe in what Jesus has done for us, or we deny Him, and that is the easiest choice we may ever face.

    Jesus is the Light of the world. Light replaces the darkness, therefore, Jesus is that Light which shines in the hearts of the Saints. Have you seen the Light?

Children sometimes need a night light for comfort, or direction to the bathroom at night. Light has reference also to understanding. For instance, when someone ...read more

    The light of Christ shined into the darkness at just the right time when He was born and still attracts people with hope, peace and love today.

    Isaiah 9:2,6 The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned. 6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders.

    In Eph. 1:18 Paul prays that their hearts would be enlightened. To enlighten means to make clear or inform. The Greek word Paul uses means to shine; to illuminate. Paul wants their hearts to illuminate and shine with the things he goes on to describe.

    Jesus said we should be "the light of the World." But just how and why should we shine that light?

    I asked the congregation: “How many of you have already taken down your Christmas lights?” (This was 7 days after Christmas Day, and about a 1/3 raised their hands) “Well, how many of you will take down your decorations NEXT week? (a few more raised their hands). How many of you ...read more
