Heavens Reply
Presents or Presence?
Neil Perry
In this season it is easy to get caught up in the "Christmas Spirit" which often translates to seasonal music, flashing lights, and how many presents do we need under the tree. However, these things can drive our focus away from the core of this joyous season, Heavens Reply, the birth of Jesus! In this heartwarming teaching, Neil brings our eyes back to the beauty of the birth of Jesus by diving into his motive, mission, and eventual ministry that all began in a manger that famous night 2000 years ago!
To the Waiting and the Hurting
Jeremy Jenkins
What do you teach on the Sunday after Christmas? Perhaps the angle isn't the gifts we received or the residual feelings of family and warmth. What if the focus is on the people who are still waiting and the ones who this Christmas season did not comfort. Perhaps the teaching should be the one that Jesus started on the first Christmas, that a new day is breaking and a new Hope has come! This teaching from Jeremy does exactly that. Driving home the beautiful message that echoes from Christmas. That Emmanuel, God with us, has come to change and save the world!
