There is a city we tend to think of as within us. It is the city of our inherited patterns and ways of doing things. It is the dead weight of our habits, our unreflective living, and our assumption that life is the way we see it and nothing else. Here is a city within that cries for deliverance. Do we dare to enter this city as Jesus entered the city of Jerusalem on Palm Sunday? Will we enter our inner city triumphally?
We often associate the gospel with Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. But there's another gospel being written every day—one that doesn't come from parchment or ink but in our daily choices, the relationships we nurture, and how we navigate the world around us by our actions and words. There is a fifth gospel, and that is the gospel according to you. In this message, Pastor Lonnie will show how the gospel, according to you, is still being written and the significance of the gospel-inspired life we live can significantly influence others.
If there ever was a need to rediscover the wonder of Christmas, it is now. Many of the alarming situations of today’s culture were present in first-century Palestine. There was a hunger for hope then as there is today. To rediscover Christmas, we need to listen again to the principal players in the first Christmas drama. John the Baptist wants to prepare us for something better that is coming; Mary has a vision for her son, and Joseph must pay attention to a dream. The world changed because they were willing participants in God’s plan. Do we need that today? Can the power of Christmas do it again in our time? In these messages, Pastor Lonnie guides us to a fresh visit and understanding of the key events that take us to the Christmas manger and the Christ.
