This Week - December 15, 2024
The Annunciation
Broadcast Date: December 15, 2024
You know that we as mortals have a tendency to resist change. Our Father in Heaven wisely prepares us before critical decisions need to be made. He does that oft times by schooling our feelings in advance, and informing our agency. Now in that light, would you please consider what happened to Mary on that day with Gabriel?
“And in the…
The Babe of Bethlehem
Broadcast Date: December 15, 2024
Jesus, the Babe of Bethlehem - He lived, and today He lives again, and watches over us as Mary once watched over Him. Where once He was cradled as a helpless babe in a lowly manger, now He reigns as King of Kings and Lord of Lords in courts of eternal glory.
He was once then tender and fragile, helpless, as susceptible to death and…
The Christmas Story
Broadcast Date: December 15, 2024
You know, I’m grateful that we have been able to share some stories with you, and I appreciate the way those stories have been received, but there are no stories that we can tell that will have near as much power on the human heart as the words of the scriptures themselves. Would you permit me just to read ‘The Christmas Story?’
“And it…
The Christmas Bike
Broadcast Date: December 15, 2024
You know, I believe it is as important how we receive a gift as that we give one. Now, by way of a story, may I show you what I mean?
Joel tells the story of a Christmas when finances were strained. There had been just enough money in the family to buy brand new bicycles for his two oldest sisters, but not enough to buy one for 7-year-…
Isaiah and Ahaz
Broadcast Date: December 15, 2024
More than 700 years before the birth of the Savior, the people of Jerusalem were frightened. Their peace was threatened by a ruthless power from the north called Assyria, who was taking over country after country.
Judah’s neighbors, Ephraim and Syria to the north, were hastily forming political alliances to guard against the threat.…
Last Week
John the Baptist
Broadcast Date: December 08, 2024
Why was it that Luke began his Gospel narrative telling of the birth of John the Baptist? Preparation precedes power, and John the Baptist was the Lord’s preparer. Here’s the story.
While an old man named Zacharias worked in the temple, the angel Gabriel appeared to him. “…Fear not, Zacharias:” he said, “[for] thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear…
Being Christ-Like
Broadcast Date: December 08, 2024
The other day I went down to Wendy’s to get a hamburger. And while I was there, Santa was in the parking lot in his little house, the children were all lined up to sit on his lap, and one by one they took turns telling him what they wished for for Christmas.
Now, I have a Christmas wish also. I don’t plan to sit on Santa’s lap, but I still have a wish. May I share…
Benjamin and the Angel
Broadcast Date: December 08, 2024
We know that an angel came to shepherds at Bethlehem with glad tidings of great joy. But did you know that another angel came with those same tidings many many years before? 124 B.C. – The land of Zarahemla: King Benjamin was awakened from his sleep by an angel.
“…Awake,” the angel said, “and hear the words which I shall tell thee; for behold I am come to declare…
Precious Gifts
Broadcast Date: December 08, 2024
You know, in the telling of the Christmas story, much is said every year of the wise men who came bearing gifts to the Christ child, but they were not the only bearers of precious gifts, perhaps not even the bearers of the most valuable ones.
For example, what about the gift of personal pain and sacrifice offered to Christ and for Christ by his noble mother? And…
The Tree of Life
Broadcast Date: December 08, 2024
This year as you decorate your Christmas tree, I have a story I’d like you to think about. Within the Holy Bible, there lies a great mystery. Our first parents, Adam and Eve, partook of the forbidden fruit, and thereby became mortal. You remember the story. The opportunity for man to be and become began then.
However, here’s the mystery: There were two trees in the…
