    Faithful, or a Fair weather Fan! Tim McGraw – Martina McBride concert – rain; it wasn’t that I was a huge fan of either, I wanted a good seat for the show.

    An all age talk: The shepherds heard the message from the Angels and then became messengers themselves. God wants us to hear the message and to be his messengers in our local community.

    (The aim of this all age sermon is to encourage a congregation of all ages to hear the message of Jesus and to be messengers of Jesus). “When [the shepherds] had seen [Jesus], they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child”.

    What if Jesus called you to come and sit down with Him and share everything that you had taught or done? What would tell Him? Being a Christian is more than something you claim. It’s something you live by and share with others.

We see the first res-ponders who rush in or people rushing home to do what they can to save their ...read more
