Christmas: The Great Good News!
Awake Us Now
Scripture: Luke 2: 1-20 The Christmas Story is familiar to most of us - a story we’ve heard over and over, year after year. When something becomes so familiar we can easily be deceived into treating it too casually without the awe and gratitude this story should cause in our hearts. Familiarity can cause us to forget this is a REAL story, with REAL people and our REAL Savior. So let’s look at this very familiar story in Luke 2:1-20 with new eyes and new ears and new hearts. May we experience and receive THE GREAT GOOD NEWS as the best gift ever given. As Pastor reads the...

Advent - Week 1: The Great Awakening
Awake Us Now
First Sunday in Advent - The Great Awakening Scripture: Luke 1:5-25 and Malachi 4:5-6a The season of Advent is a time we prepare to celebrate that Jesus came, but it is also a time we eagerly anticipate that He will return! When asked about the Great Awakening, people most often mention the The Great Awakening of the 1700s, an awakening that fundamentally changed what would become the United States of America, and imparted America’s destiny and the make up of our country.

info_outlineScripture: Psalm 145:13b, Acts 1:3, Acts 1:4-12, Ephesians 5:18, Matthew 5:16, 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
How many promises are in the Bible? The number given by many different individuals and groups ranges from many hundreds to many thousands. We will settle on saying there are “lots and lots!”
Today, we take a look at several more of Jesus’ appearances after His resurrection and explore three specific promises found in Acts 1 that are applicable to any believer’s life.
Promise #1: Holy Spirit
Promise #2: Witnesses
Promise #3: Second Coming
Applications
⁃ Holy Spirit - given to all who believe. Ephesians 5:18 says, “keep on being filled with the Spirit of God.” Listen to Him and seek His guidance.
⁃ Witnesses - disciples of Christ. Matthew 5:16 tells us to “let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” Our witness flows from our faith in Jesus. We bear witness to Jesus with our actions and words (not to earn salvation, as it is a free gift through faith, but rather it flows from us in thanks for the gift of salvation.) We are called to be His witnesses in the world today
⁃ Jesus’ second coming - a source of comfort and peace in the midst of a crazy world. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 assures of we will be raised to life forever with Christ.
Our salvation was won at the cross
Our salvation was guaranteed at the empty tomb
Our salvation is secured because Jesus is coming back!
