    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,711 views

    We need Christmas because the incarnation provided what we needed in order to be saved from our sins.

    Every year, much of the world celebrates Christmas without really understanding why. We’ve done a great job of perpetuating the “what” and the “how” of Christmas. Even though we lament the fact that Christmas has lost a lot of its meaning, at least in this country, almost everyone, regardless of ...read more

  • Christmas Day: Name That Tune!

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 22, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,514 views

    This all-age talk for Christmas Day is based around a game of ’Name that Tune’. Each of the 5 tunes, once guessed, help to build up the sermon which ends asking people to invite Jesus into their lives if they’ve not already done so.

    (The big idea: The point of this all-age sermon is that Jesus is totally unique! There is no-one like him. He alone reveals God to humanity and he alone reveals God’s plans for us. Just like a piece of music the more we listen to it and get to know it the more its unique qualities become obvious. ...read more
