For All The People || Luke 2:8-15

December 22, 2024 • Dan Long • Luke 2:8–15

When the angel of the Lord stood before the shepherds, he proclaimed good news of great joy, “For All the People”. Luke 2:8-15

This Sunday, we will be focusing our attention on that phrase. What does it mean that Jesus, the Savior, is “For All the People”? Key to understanding those words is Jesus title of “Christ” in the New Testament and “Messiah” in the Old Testament. We are going to step back into Genesis to see where that title originates and what it means for us. From beginning to end, Genesis to Revelation, God has a plan. He is taking us somewhere and invites us to participate with Him in fulfilling his purposes, For All the People.

Good News of Great Joy || Luke 2:1-11

December 15, 2024 • Josh Leftwich • Luke 2:8–11

At the time of Jesus' birth, the world was under the rule of Pax Romana, a system that promised order but could never deliver true peace. The birth of Jesus was a direct challenge to that system. Why is the birth of Jesus "good news"? Perhaps the answer lies in the kingdom He brings. Join us this Sunday as we look at three different announcements of the birth of this baby king.

Fear Not || Luke 2:8-11

December 8, 2024 • Jacob Collins • Luke 2:8–11

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom..." Proverb 9:10 "Fear not..." ~ the angel to the shepherds in Luke 2 So are we supposed to fear God, or not be afraid of God? What gives? Shepherds. Angels. Fear. Advent week #2 has it all.

A Tale of Three Kings || Luke 2:1-7

December 1, 2024 • John Sittema • Luke 2:1–7

And just when you thought political conflict is past, we read the Christmas story. It’s not about happy trees and shiny tinsel. Not presents, parties and nostalgia. Not Santa and sweets. It’s about Regime Change, the coming of a king whose reign of grace and truth confronts, and displaces, every pathetic counterfeit that masquerades as the hope of the world. This Sunday we launch an advent series in Luke 2. Its about “good news of great joy” and why we must rejoice. This week, the good news is all about God’s provocative King! Welcome to Luke 2!
