Three Gifts You'll Keep for Your Lifetime

December 26, 2021 • Pastor Larry Hasmatali • 2 Corinthians 9:15

Give

Boxing Day is known for its sales, and for its returns. Yet Christmas offers us a gift we'll want to keep for life - Jesus. Through the gift of God's Son, we receive a new identity, a new source of power, and a new family. Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!

Unspeakable Joy

December 19, 2021 • Pastor Larry Hasmatali • Luke 2:8–18

What does it mean to have joy? And how is it possible to follow the command to 'rejoice always'? The Bible teaches clearly that joy is not an emotion and doesn't come from ourselves. It's all about choosing to allow the Good News from Heaven to enter us personally.

Praise

December 12, 2021 • Pastor Jeremy MacDonald • Luke 1:46–55

The 'Magnificat' (also known as 'Mary's Song') is one of the most beloved and well-known songs of praise in the Bible. In it, Mary praises God for recognizing the humble in Israel (including herself) and lifting them up. Mary had a difficult road ahead - but instead she chose to praise.

Timing

December 5, 2021 • Pastor Larry Hasmatali • Galatians 4:4

Someone once said, "Time is an illusion. Timing is an art." We all understand that timing is everything, and yet we seldom like to wait for God's time. His timing is perfect, though, and while we're in God's 'waiting room' we're also in His 'operating room' and can rest assured He's using that time to work on our hearts and our character for His glory. We simply need to trust Him.
