Christmas
A Gift to the World
January 2, 2022 • Pastor Jim Mericle • Luke 3:23–38, Isaiah 42:1–10
As we begin this new year of 2022, we celebrate the Gift God gives to us all in Jesus. Today we focus on how Luke focuses on Jesus' connection to all of us from the very beginning of humanity and his gift of love and forgiveness and the hope of new beginnings. What new hope can you find in Jesus and new commitments can you have for this year of 2022.
What's in a Name?
December 26, 2021 • Pastor Jim Mericle • Luke 2:21–40
This First Sunday of Christmas we will enjoy singing lots of Carols and hear the message of Jesus officially being named. Jesus means, "The Lord Saves" and is a reminder that Jesus is the Savior of the World. What about other names and our names? Names have meaning and power.
