IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE The Chance of a Lifetime Luke 1:26-38; Matthew 1:18-25 In the story of Jesus’ conception, we see the message of Gabriel gives Mary favor, faith and family.

IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE Even When Things Go Wrong Luke 1:5-25; 59-66 In the story of John the Baptist’s conception, we find that God the Father can lead us from suffering, into silence, and then to sanity, if we will trust Him.

LIVE READY To The Least of These Matthew 25:31-46 In Matthew 25:31-46, we see spiritual sheep, soulless goats, and the supreme question.

LIVE READY I Wish We’d All Been Ready Matthew 25:1-30 In Matthew 25:1-30, we are warned to prepare, promote, and persevere.

LIVE READY Until He Comes Matthew 24:23-31 In Matthew 24:23-31, we are warned of false prophets who might lead us astray, flashing signs that would mark the return of Christ, and the final battle that rages until Christ ends it.

LIVE READY Fire & Ice Matthew 24:9-22 In Matthew 24:9-22, we see the Lord giving over the unrighteous to the consequences of their sin, Christ-followers giving the gospel to all who will hear, and those who understand giving flight from the distress at hand. BOTTOM LINE: God's plan for His followers will go forward, in spite of the hardship and opposition in the world. Here’s how to be a part of God’s plan. Just as Jesus, at His Last Supper, left the place of prominence, took on the role of a servant and washed His disciples’ feet with a basin and towel, we, too, need to humble ourselves. We need to join the Towel and Basin Society, and serve our community in order to win some to Christ. And then we will have our part in Jesus statement: This good news of the kingdom will be proclaimed in all the world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. Matthew 24:14 (CSB)
