    Lk. 2:21-40 “Normal and Yet Not Quite” Have you taken your Christmas decorations down yet? Have you taken the ornaments off the tree and the lights and put everything back into storage for another year? Is Christmas already over for you? As Christians, we may need to be reminded that ...read more

    Christmas Sermon

    As I’ve expressed in past year…I have a special more than at any other time I find during this season. I sense God’s presence in the world…and with it, the significance of my own presence.

    A fairly short sermon asking the congregation to pray for parents, to praise God for Jesus, to be open to prophesy, to be regular in prayer and to be patient.

    Luke 2: 22 to 40 This is such a lovely all-age event in the life of Jesus. We’ve got a baby (Jesus 2:21), parents (Mary and Joseph 2:22), a man of faith (Simeon 2:25), and a very prayerful and faithful widow (Anna 2:36). The whole event is a reminder to us that children are a gift from God. I was ...read more

    What it means to be redeemed - what means to have a purpose. Like Anna, we too are insignificant until we have been redeemed – and have become something special in the eyes of God.

    Title: Anna: A Life in Three Verses Text: Luke 2:36-38 FCF: Like Anna, we too are insignificant until we have been redeemed – and have become something special in the eyes of God.

    Tf what’s happened with his birth we also need God’s word to enlighten us, to fill out for us these events with the rich understanding of God’s plan for the world.

    One of the good things about Christmas is catching up with people you haven’t seen for a while, maybe even since last year. Well, this year I’ve had lots of conversations with people who want to know what’s happening about the merger with St Michael’s. They all want to know how things are ...read more

    What does the dedication of Jesus have to say to us about our New Year

    If you were here early, you might have wondered at the music playing. After all, you don’t often have hymns combined with 1960’s pop music. They were chosen because of their theme. Each promotes a vision, a seeing, a looking forward to something and a hope in the coming days. That was part of the ...read more

    The story of Anna teaches us the need to thank God and to tell others about His blessings.

    Giving thanks and telling the story Luke 2:36-38 Two of the biggest reasons that people don’t share their faith are • that they don’t know what to say • they are afraid of rejection Anna’s method addresses both these objections. 36There was also a prophetess, Anna, the daughter of Phanuel, of ...read more

    Luke 2 teaches us that Jesus purposefully came to those who no one would choose - from a young poor couple to outcast shepherds. Learn also about his ordinary/extraordinary childhood.

    Luke chapter 2 is very unique - it is the only place where we learn in detail what happened at the birth of Christ - again, evidence that Luke may have gotten the story from Mary herself. It is the only place where we see Jesus presented for circumcision at the Temple, and the only gospel that ...read more

    This sermon was used with video clips from the Peanuts Christmas video.

    There is a little guy some of us never think about except at Christmas. He is short. He has a little round head. He doesn’t have much hair. He seems to always be on the wrong side of the ball in life. If you have ever paid much attention to the cartoon strip Peanuts, than you know that Charlie ...read more
