    Gifts For The Lord

    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?

    The way to life with God is through the door, and Jesus Christ is the door. There are two groups of people that ‘gotta come in through the door.’ First, there is the shepherd, and then there are the sheep.
