December 25, 2022 • Pastor Chris Pratt • Isaiah 9:6, Hebrews 4:15–16, Jeremiah 32:17, 2 Corinthians 12, Psalm 103
Welcome to our latest video where we're exploring the beautiful words of Isaiah 9:6 and how they relate to Jesus. In this passage, we see that a child is born and given to us, and that this child will be called "Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." In this video, we'll take a closer look at each of these titles and how they apply to Jesus. We'll see how He is our wonderful counselor, able to sympathize with our weaknesses and offer us grace in times of need. We'll also explore His role as Mighty God, able to do all things and make our weaknesses into strengths. We'll see how He is the Everlasting Father, providing us with love and compassion, and how He is the Prince of Peace, bringing us peace even in the midst of problems. We hope you'll join us as we delve deeper into these powerful words and what they mean for our lives.
Christmas at Vision 2022
December 18, 2022 • Pastor Chris Pratt • Matthew 2:3–6, Matthew 2:16, Luke 2:7
Don't miss Christmas! In this Christmas message, we explore how preoccupation, busyness, religion, indifference, fear, and pride can all cause us to miss the true meaning of Christmas. Through the story of the birth of Jesus in Luke 2 and Matthew 2, we see how Mary and Joseph found no room at the inn, how King Herod sought to kill the newborn savior, and how the wise men followed a star to worship Jesus. Don't let these distractions keep you from celebrating and experiencing the hope, love, and salvation that Christmas brings. Keep the true meaning of Christmas at the forefront of your mind and heart this holiday season.
