     | 15,382 views

    From the examples of Herod and the Wise Men, we can learn about how we should respond to the message and meaning of Christmas.

    The gifts that the Magi brought to honor Jesus are often cited in any attempt to explain the tradition of giving gifts at Christmas. Too often, however, our focus at Christmas is more of the gifts we receive, rather than the Gift God gave. A family celebrated Christmas each year by singing “Happy ...read more

    In an age of commercialism that breeds discontent we are challenged by Scripture to live a contented life. Paul explains how we can be content in any and every situation.

Contentment is an illusive quality today. Much of the business world works hard to breed discontent so that we will buy ...read more

    The woman’s bold witness opened the way to Jesus. That stage of belief is only introductory. They needed a personal encounter with Jesus. The magnificent climax is that the Samaritans come to settled conviction & acclaim Jesus as the Savior of the World.
