Sun, 28 December 2008  Sunday, December 28, 2008Message by: Pastor Ken Harvey Bible Ref.: Luke 2:1-20 The greatest event in history had just happened! The Messiah had been born! For ages the Jews had waited for this, and when it finally occurred, the announcement came to humble shepherds. The good news about Jesus is that he comes to all, including the plain and the ordinary. He comes to anyone with a heart humble enough to accept him. Whoever you are, whatever you do, you can have Jesus in your life. Don't think you need extraordinary qualifications. He accepts you as you are. Comments[0] |
Sun, 14 December 2008  Sunday, December 14, 2008 God sent the angel Gabriel to announce to Zechariah that He and his wife Elizabeth would have a son born to them and to Mary that she would give birth to Jesus the Savior of the world. Both were miracle births. Zechariah and Elizabeth were past child bearing years and Mary was a virgin. Zechariah expressed doubt that this could be, yet he was obedient. Mary was young, poor, and female. In her culture, she would seem to be unusable by God for any major task. But God chose Mary for one of the most important acts of obedience he has ever demanded of anyone. What we will see this weekend, is that God can use you if you trust him. Comments[0] |
Sun, 7 December 2008  Sunday, December 7, 2008 "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." Two words describe faith: sure and certain. These two qualities need a secure beginning and ending point. The beginning point of faith is believing in God's character-he is who he says. The end point is believing in God's promises-he will do what he says. When we believe that God will fulfill his promises even though we don't see those promises materializing yet, we demonstrate true faith. The story of the widow's son illustrates salvation. The whole world was dead in sin, just as the widow's son was dead. But God had compassion on us, and he sent Jesus to raise us to life with him. Accept God's gift of life, praise God for it, and use your life to do his will. Comments[0] |
Sun, 30 November 2008  Sunday, November 30, 2008Message by: Pastor Ken Harvey Bible Ref.: Luke 6:39-49 Jesus reminds us that we need to follow the right teachers, and to not be critical of others. He reminds us that our speech and actions reveal the true underlying beliefs, attitudes, and motivations in our lives. Obeying God is like building a house on a solid foundation that stands firm when storms come. Be sure your life is built on the solid foundation of knowing and trusting Jesus Christ. Comments[0] |
