Christmas: Time-LESS Tradition
From our "Christmas In October" service that benefits our missionaries: In our culture, the Christmas event has become a problem... The wonderful story of Patient Restoration has been traded for one of Instant Gratification. The best gifts are the one’s that take the most thought, the most time, the most effort...and in giving his sons and daughters the greatest gift of all God spared no expense.

Change They Couldn't Believe In
Luke prepares us for life after the "new baby smell" wears off and the reality of conflict comes. Few were ready for the dividing work Jesus would do. Do we accept more than the baby Jesus in our own lives?

Christmas Comfort
Scrooge was shown his future – he was to die alone and sad, and fearful, but here Isaiah gives us a glimpse of true comfort: because Jesus triumphed over the grave, our future as a broken community is to rise on eagle’s wings!Isn’t it comforting that history ends with this picture – a picture of one of the most tender things one person can do for another, which is to gently touch their cheek and dry their tears? You have to be in intimate relationship with someone to do that don’t you? And you see what we’re shown in Scripture at the end of Revelation is that Jesus Himself will come to you, and with the very hands that were pierced with wounds of love for you, will brush away your final tears, which are precious to him, and will store them away in his bottle with all the rest that you cry right now. Then, you will know joy, and it will be a greater joy than Scrooge even knew on Christmas morning.
