    This sermon is about enduring personal trials and tribulations in our personal wilderness.

    Mark, the evangelist, begins his gospel in the wilderness.

And that is the message of our text - the promise ...read more

    Grace. Those most people thought were least likely to become God’s people are the ones who come to Christ; while the ones often thought to be most likely became his enemies.

    Two of the surprises that we come across as we read the New Testament are the people who become close to Jesus, and the people who are alienated from Jesus. It is surprising because it is exactly the opposite of what we would expect to find. We would expect Jesus to be close to the religious folk ...read more

    Simeon and Anna did not live their senior lives without purpose, they dedicated the rest of their lives to praise God and were blessed for it.

    Simeon and Anna were different from the rest of the older people in the place Jesus was circumcised. Their difference made them stand out, if you would have been looking for it. We must praise; it builds all those God uses. I. Eyes Expecting God’s Promise (25-27) A. His faith changed his ...read more

     | 4,523 views

    Failing to make time for God during strange times might cause us to miss His blessings and instead find frustration instead.

    As we see the birth of Jesus, we see Mary’s immediate assistance coming from her faithful husband and unfailing God in the time of her distress. They had to make time for God; God had made this a unique time for them. We too might miss God’s help if we’re too busy with the details of life to see ...read more

    Like Joseph, the foster father of our Lord Jesus, may we trust in God’s protecting care...with a faith like Joseph’s that listens...with a faith like Joseph’s that obeys.

     | 3,945 views

    In the dim light of a Star and the witness of dreams wise men were guided by God to find and worship Jesus, how much more ought we who have the plain Word of God to do so!

    When God Speaks Through Dreams Matthew 2:13-23 What do you think about dreams? The Greek words for dream occur only 9 times in the New Testament; six times in Matthew, where every one of them has a message from God. Acts 2:17 and Jude 8 contain the other three. Acts speaks of the evidence of ...read more
