The Lamb of God

In this last sermon in the Advent series "Eye-Witness news" our reporter in the field gets an interview with the shepherds. He does his best to explain why Jesus was born in Bethlehem and why his birth was announced to the shepherds. This sermon is down to earth, easy to understand, and presented in the context of an evening news broadcast.

I pray God blesses your Christmas season.

Bed of Hay

This Christmas sermon takes a look at this traditional passage in a unique way. The sermon is written in a T.V. Eye witness news formate. It delves into the contextual reality of what the city of Bethlehem and giving birth in a stable might have been like in the first century as an unwed pregnant teen.
It is not to be missed however that the reporter on location recognizes that something hugely significant is taking place and he believes that the long awaited messiah has arrived and been placed in a manger full of hay.

God's Correspondent

This sermon kicks off the Advent Season with hope and a challenge. Today we encounter Mary in a new way. We begin to see her through the judgmental and accusing eyes of her own community.
Can you imagine what it meant to say yes to something that would mean everyone would treat you like an outcast? Mary did. She had her whole life in front of her and she gave it up to serve God. Can we have the courage of a 14 year old girl?
