A Savior Worth Waiting For

Contributed by Scott Spencer on Jan 9, 2016

Joseph wasn’t so thrilled with the whole idea presented to him at first, but eventually accepted the present as God presented it to him. Joseph is really the forgotten figure of Christmas.

Mary A Terrific Teenager

Contributed by Bob Marcaurelle on Dec 3, 2019

The Roman Catholic Church has defied this young girl and in response, many Protestants have demoted her as some kind of second-class servant of God. This is wrong because she, like her Son, was one of God's suffering servants.

MARY - THE TERRIFIC TEENAGER Luke 1:26-38 A remarkable thing about God is that he trusts us with His work. He trusted men and women in Bible times to receive and record His revelations of Himself. He entrusted His church with His supreme revelation, Jesus, and with the great commission ...read more

Mary The Slave-Girl

Contributed by David Campbell on Aug 11, 2001

Limiting What God Can Do Series

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Nov 1, 2019

Mary expresses disbelief that she, a virgin, could fulfill the angel's prediction of a baby. We too often limit what we believe God is capable of.

HE CAN'T DO THAT: We limit in our minds what we believe God can do. - Luke 1:34. - There is no doubt that the angel’s message about the virgin birth is a lot to take in. Because of that, it’s easy for us to be sympathetic toward Mary. We would no doubt have also struggled with this ...read more
