There's Good News: Good News of a King

Text: Luke 1:26-38

There’s Good News! It is not news of a vaccine, of a recovered economy, of an election result, of a peace treaty in a foreign land, or of Christmas traditions and plans. It is Good News directly from God to man that brings joy, hope, peace, and ultimately life to all who will receive it and believe it. Though we live in a dark and weary world, we can rejoice because of the Good News of a King. All of Scripture points loud and clear to Who this King is. The question for us to consider is simple, “Is He my King?” We invite you to listen today and be encouraged by the Good News!

There's Good News: Good News of a Child

Text: Isaiah 9:1-7

This year, 2020, will be remembered for the many difficulties and challenges that we all faced along the way. From week to week and month to month, it seemed that the news about the ongoing pandemic and its many results just grew worse and worse. Though the crisis has been draining and discouraging, there is still “Good News” that we can hold onto today. It is not news of a vaccine, a recovered economy, an election result, a peace treaty in a foreign land, or of Christmas traditions and plans. It is Good News directly from God to man that is far more important and far more lasting than any other news that you will hear in this world. We invite you today to consider the Good News of the Child that was to be born in Bethlehem 2,000 years ago.

I Will Bless the Lord

Text: Psalm 103

There are many who consider themselves to be thankful, but how many of us actually are deliberate in giving thanks? Like the healed lepers in Luke 17, the majority of us get so caught up in our busyness and distractions that we fail to faithfully give thanks to God. In Psalm 103, we learn the keys to living with deliberate devotion and praise to the Lord. We invite you to listen today to discover how to do so and the amazing impact it has on your life and the many who follow after you.

One Another: Forgive One Another

Text: Ephesians 4:30-32; Colossians 3:12-13

Forgiveness is a common need for all humanity. We all need forgiveness from God, and we all need to extend it to one another. However, we greatly struggle with this calling. Like Peter in Matthew 18, we like to put boundaries and limitations on who and how often we will forgive. Jesus’ answer to Peter’s request, and our common problem, teaches us how greatly we need His help with forgiveness. We invite you to listen today so that you can learn how to identify when to forgive and how to do so.
