Sermon – Preparing for the Lord
Preparing for the Lord
God who wants to crash into our squalid existence and be a part of our lives. This God has marked us and our humanity as holy. We are not repenting of being human, but of using our greatness for destruction, and of suppressing the greatness of others. Our squalid condition is a result of what we have done to ourselves and our world, but it is not a reflection of who we are, and what we are created to be. Jesus has come to restore us to the appropriate relationship with God, and to our rightful place. Humanity is created to be great.

Luke 1:26-38
“26 Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, 27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. 28 And having come in, the angel said to her, “Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!” 29 But when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and considered what manner of greeting this was. 30 Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31 And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name Jesus.

Sermon – Generosity
Sermon – Generosity
“While ministering in Africa, I met a Christian worker who raised his 6 children on $10 a month. He told me the story of how children in his village were going blind because of a disease that could be prevented with medicine that only cost 50 cents. He began to pray and ask God to send a rich person to their village to help give the money for the medicine, but no one ever came. As he kept praying, the Lord told him he should give the money to buy the medicine. But with 6 children and only a $10 a month salary, he couldn’t see how he could do this. But he and his family prayed and decided that every month they would buy the medicine to help one child. When I last spoke with him, he’d been doing this for 7 years and had saved 84 children from going blind. And his family saw God meet all of their needs.”
