The Mighty God (Isaiah 9:2-7)
For unto us a child is born...
The people walking in darkness have seen a great light;on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned.You have enlarged the nation and increased their joy;they rejoice before you as people rejoice at the harvest,as warriors rejoice when dividing the plunder.For as in the day of Midian’s defeat, you have shatteredthe yoke that burdens them, the bar across…

The Wednesday Word: Another Look at the Saviour’s Birth
Just recently my good friend, S.J. from Kerrville, Texas sent me a delightful article from an unknown writer. It dealt with the birth of the Saviour and especially with the shepherds and the manger.
Here is the article,
“I bet you didn’t know the following about the manger that Jesus was laid in. Of course, mangers are animal feeding troughs but in ancient Israel they were made of stone – not…

Our world is often painted in black and white. You are either soft or hard, strong or weak, loving or truthful, forgiving or demanding, and so on. Life, too, is either light or dark, good or bad, hopeful or mournful.
I want to invite you into a world of color, one in which a baby AND a King came into the world, illustrating that contradictions live together when we follow Him, that…

The Believers' Adoption Into God's Family
As those who have been redeemed by the blood of Christ, we have been transferred from Satan’s “domain of darkness” (Col 1:13) and placed into the family of God. Our new status is as “children of God” (John 1:12; cf., Rom 8:16; Phil 2:15). John wrote, “See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are” (1 John 3:1a). We do not come into…

HER STORY: The Birth of Christ, Anna the Prophet
How long have you been waiting for the longing you have been praying about to be fulfilled? A longing you have felt certain God has invited you to pray about, that you feel certain God has indicated will be fulfilled?
#Prophetess #Anna #Christmas
How long have you been waiting for the longing you have been praying about to be fulfilled? A longing you have felt certain God has invited you to pray about, that you feel certain God has indicated will be fulfilled?
Anna’s story can be told in three stages: There was tragedy early in her life, then came the temple where she lived most of her life, and finally came the testimony God gave her…

The Uses of History, 12 – Christmas, 1
The Uses of History, 12 – Christmas, 1
(Photo credit – Wikipedia)
The feast of Christmas as we generally know and observe it now in the West is a strange amalgam. Since the mid-1960s, in the name of inclusiveness and sensitivity, reinforced in the 1970s and 1980s by persistent lobbying and even legal action to remove the overtly Christian symbols and narrative around the feast from public view and even public discourse, a vaguely…

Christmas Miracle - Christ Still Comes Today!
Christmas Miracle – Christ Still Comes Today!
So many in this generation do not know the story of Jesus truly. That it is historically verifiable. That it is not only a fantastic fairytale but a genuine prophesied and verified event of History. When Jesus Came… it was literally,1- The Gift of God, from God, to mankind. Jesus came all bundled up in a Manger, like a surprise package from God! And this was not just a random event of history…

Advent...a journey of Delivery and Unending Joy!
Advent…a journey of Delivery and Unending Joy!
My journey though the Christmas scriptures has brought me to Christmas Eve with a humble and open heart. I know I did not get to the Wise men or aged Anna and Simon yet, but the Mary, Joseph and Jesus did not meet them until after his birth. Anna and Simon were encountered in the temple when Jesus was circumsized after 8 days as was their custom. The wise men saw the star when Jesus was born and…

How You Are Matters (Ruth 4:13-17)
Grace changes history.
The Meeting of Ruth and Boaz by Marc Chagall, 1960
So Boaz took Ruth home as his wife. The Lord blessed her, and she became pregnant and had a son. The women said to Naomi, “Praise the Lord! He has given you a grandson today to take care of you. May the boy become famous in Israel! Your daughter-in-law loves you and has done more for you than seven sons. And now she has given you a grandson, who…

Light Shines in the Darkness - The Birth of Jesus - A Five Minute Friday Post
Light Shines in the Darkness – The Birth of Jesus – A Five Minute Friday Post
Light shines brightest in the dark. Last night was the longest night of the year and the shortest day of the year. The stars and moon shine in the dark, but they don’t appear to shine when it’s light.
When the baby Jesus was born, the shepherds saw a bright star. They knew something very special was happening. This new star heralded the birth of the Savior of the world. Its light was a sign of…

HER STORY: The Birth of Christ, The Midwife
She is an imagined character, but she was surely there, a midwife to help the young Mary give birth to her first baby.
#VirginaMary #Midwife #BirthofChrist
She is an imagined character, but she was surely there, a midwife to help the young Mary give birth to her first baby.
What if the midwife was local to Bethlehem?
What if she had already helped the aging Elizabeth give birth to her one and only child?
Even though the character is imagined, there is historical material throughout this episode.
I lose my accent somewhere in the…
