When you’re lost in the dark, what you need is a source of light. It was Jesus who proclaimed, “I am the light of the world.” At Christmas, we remember His Light and rejoice in the salvation He provided for all who believe and receive Him.

When light comes, the darkness scatters. We may think darkness covers our sins, but in the light of God, nothing can be hidden. When Jesus came, light blazed into a darkened culture, and truth began to triumph over lies. That’s why many hate the Christ of Christmas. Getting close to Him exposes our darkness, and some would rather keep their darkness. Let’s come clean before God and allow Him to reign supreme in our lives.

Christmas is far more than gift giving, far more than the story of a baby born in a manger. It’s really a celebration of God’s intervention in human history. To a world lost in darkness, the Bible tells us that a great light was seen, a light personified by the Lord Jesus Christ. He bought our redemption, only possible because Jesus came to this earth to live and then die as a sacrifice for our sins.

We often hear about political attempts to encourage peace in the Middle East. Politicians make promises, and yet the conflict rages on. At best, Arabs and Israelis maintain a tense holding pattern in which neither side is assured of a secure future. Will there be peace before the return of Christ?

The Word of God has been given to believers in two forms. We have the written Word in the Bible, but we also have the Word made flesh, as Jesus reveals to us the Father in heaven. He was sent by the Father to change the lives of all who come to Him for salvation.

Does your mind ever wander when you pray? Do you ever wonder what you should actually be praying for? Prayer is not easy. In this message we learn how to pray verses of Scripture back to the God who inspired them, and thereby gain focus and purpose as we come to our Father in heaven.

We make choices every day. We all need guidance on picking the right forks in life’s road. The Bible gives us the guidance we need, and it cautions us concerning the dangers of failing to meditate on the Word of God.

The book of James is full of practical teaching on how to live the Christian life. We are to be “doers of the word, and not hearers only.” Let’s learn how to get the most out of hearing and reading the Word of God.

“The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; the precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart.” This is from Psalm 19, where David extols the value of the Word of God. Are you ready to increase your appetite for the Word of God, making it the center of all you do?
October 27, 2019
The Word of God is at the center of a believer’s life. It teaches us, guides us, and encourages us. But before doing any of these things, it first converts us, taking us from the kingdom of darkness to the kingdom of God’s dear Son. The Word of God and the Spirit of God transform lives!

Philip is a visionary leader with over twelve years of ministry experience, including three at Christ Community Church in the western Chicago suburbs and nearly seven as Senior Pastor at Westwood Baptist in Olympia, WA.
