Christmas Eve

This week we continue a series on expectations as we look at the shepherds and angels in Luke 2:8-20.

Often we have expectations of how Christmas is going to go!

  • We want the house to look a certain way with the lights and decorations on brilliant display.
  • We hope the meals we share could be highlighted on the cover of a Christmas cooking magazine.
  • We want to give and receive just the right presents.
  • We want our relationships to be good with joy, laughter and no fighting or discord.

But how often does it really go this way?

Sunday’s Coming ~ December 18, 2016

This week we continue a series on expectations as we look at Zechariah’s song from Luke 1:67-79. Each of us have dreams and ideas of how things should work out.  When our reality doesn’t meet our expectations it can make us doubt and lack trust.  Zechariah heard, knew, and sang over what John was to become.  God sees what each …

Children’s Ministry Sunday School (December 11, 2016)

Yesterday in Sunday the kids looked at the Holy Spirit leading Jesus into the wilderness where he was tempted.  Jesus did not give in to temptation.  Each time Jesus was tempted, He remembered God’s Word.   The writer of Hebrews said that our high priest—Jesus—can sympathize with our weaknesses because He was tested in every way we are, yet He …

Sunday’s Coming ~ December 11, 2016

This week we continue a series on expectations.  Expectations have a huge influence on how we experience our lives, and there may not be any time where we feel more of the weight of expectations than around Christmas.  The food needs to taste just like Grandma used to make it.  Everyone needs to make it to every gathering and get along.  We need to get everyone everything on their Christmas list.  Oh, and we’re supposed to have some spiritually meaningful moment because, after all, this is about Jesus, right?
