    Isaiah managed to get through with his Message of Hope. And so did the Messengers of Hope at the barn: the Angels, the Shepherds and the Wise Men. Today we receive the Message of Hope and learn how to become Messengers ourselves.

    Isa 40:1-11 The Exile is over - Ruins back to life - people return - peace joy and salvation to God’s people - "Comfort, O comfort my people, says your God." - That was 2,500 years ago - Who cares? - Nativity Scene - another story of old. - Who cares? Some of us long for a such Message of Hope. ...read more

    The arm of God rules, and the arms of God are tender.

    These are words of comfort for a rejected and downcast people. They are words of comfort for a sinful people; for God’s people.

So the question I want to ask today is this: what do you understand by that word Gospel? Is it just the life of Jesus, like a potted history? Or is it ...read more

The people had abandoned God. • The last 27 chapters talk about redemption, God’s forgiveness for the people, and the deliverance by a ...read more
