A message from the series “Carry the Light.” Do we understand where the story of Christmas begins? This season, we will rediscover the original story from which our favorite Christmas scriptures are inspired and fulfilled. The Jewish people revered the prophet Isaiah, who brought a message from the Lord most high, which promised hope in a savior. We have talked about why we need a savior: to redeem us and all of creation back to God, reunite us with Him, get rid of sin, and ultimately invite us to eternity with Him. Now that we know why we need a savior, let us take this Advent to contemplate how this story is embedded in one much larger than what the world has to offer us. Isaiah 9 clearly describes who this savior is to be, so let’s connect the dots to Isaiah and the familiar story we know and love of Christ’s birth.

A message from the series “Christ the King.” This Sunday we spend celebrating the sovereignty and glory of Jesus Christ — the one who has inaugurated the kingdom of God. To him God the Father has given all authority and righteousness, as the Lord of all. Jesus is both fully human and fully divine, and we hold this truth in understanding his identity. The scriptures are full of imagery which show us God’s unique glory, including the famous text of Revelation in which Jesus is the King of kings and Lord of lords. Let us celebrate the eternal reign of King Jesus!

A message from the series “Thankfulness.” There are people in our lives that are truly gifts. They bless us in many ways and we know that they are special. We often are taught to express our gratitude to that person directly (which is great), but how frequently do we remember to thank God for these people? How might our relationship (both with the person and) with God change, when we go to him in prayer of thanksgiving for the people in our lives? God has given us every good thing, including the people we have grown to love. We are thankful for you, our congregation. It is a blessing to serve with and for you in this Church that God has called us all to. Thanks be to God for this amazing place, community, congregation, staff, and support who all pour into God’s vision for this Church to worship him.
