CHRISTMAS EVE – “Good News of Great Joy for All the People”

Tonight is the culmination of our series, knowing the “His Gospel is Peace!” It all comes down to this. To HIM; born for us!

And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.”

Luke 2:10-12

May the Lord bless your celebration of the birth of the Savior, Jesus, through Whom we have “Good News of Great Joy” and never need fear!

CHRISTMAS EVE – “Wrapped Up In Love”

Tonight is the culmination of our series and our waiting! It all comes down to this. To HIM; born for us!

1In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. 2This was the first registration when Quirinius was governor of Syria. 3And all went to be registered, each to his own town. 4And Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the town of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, 5to be registered with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child. 6And while they were there, the time came for her to give birth. 7And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.

Luke 2:1-7

May the Lord bless your celebration o f the birth of the Savior, Jesus, through Whom you, too, are “wrapped Up In Love!”

“The Clothing of the King” – Advent & Christmas Sermon Series

For our Advent and Christmas journey we are going to look at various aspects of and the importance given to different clothes in Scripture.


Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society.

Mark Twain

This may seem odd or trivial, but clothing in the Bible is more than a tangential detail. It often has significant implications for revealing God’s plan of redemption.

Consider: God covered Adan and Eve’s shame and nakedness. He designed and meticulously instructed the Israelites on the priestly garments of the Tabernacle. The Savior Himself was wrapped in swaddling clothes (and later was crucified naked on the cross).

We are going to look at some stories of “The Clothing of the King.” Stories that describe a wardrobe at once splendid and sin-stained, with fabrics that reveal who we are and cover us through His love and redemption. The clothing of the King is both tattered and worn and also incorruptibly glorious – which He freely gives to us!

Join us as we see texture and shape given to the threads of Scripture!

A New Normal

The prophecy of this Child’s birth is fulfilled.

The shepherds are gone. Perhaps life is returning to some kind of normalcy.

But it’s still not “normal.”

How can it be?

Jesus is not a “normal” child. This is not a “normal” family. Perhaps this “new normal” is all there is to look forward to.

Or is it?
What do we do in the “letdown” after Christmas? Is it a disappointment? Mundane? “Normal?”
How can it be?

The fact that Jesus came changed everything – for the better! There is a “new normal” but it is to be celebrated – every day!
