Sermon Title: "Jesus, What A Christmas Promise"- Luke 2:8-14

Sermons from Sunday Worship at Falls Church Presbyterian Church in Falls Church, VA.  Also sermons from my previous position in Columbus, OH.

John the Baptist intrudes into our Christmas preparation, calling people a "brood of vipers" and demanding their lives show evidence of change, repentance. Curiously, those John yells at don't run away. instead they ask, "What then should we do?" It's a question we might all want to ask, and answer, as we prepare in this season of Advent.

What Should We Do? - Ethical U-Turns (Luke 3:7-18)

Everything we do at Westside is centred on knowing Jesus and making Jesus known. Christ's great commission is for His disciples to go out and make disciples (Matthew 28:18-19). In Jesus' parable of the Great Banquet (Luke 14), He tells us to go out and compel as many people as possible to come to His Father's banqueting table so that His house may be full. There is no denying that our clear calling as the global church is to make Jesus known to those who don't know Him. But making Jesus known at Westside isn't simply tied into missions and evangelism, for knowing Jesus isn't a one-time act but an ongoing process -- what God begins, He completes (Romans 8:30 and Philippians 1:7). And the fact is, Jesus calls us to disciple-making, not convert--making; but that said, the role of any disciple is calling others to follow Jesus.

We begin a short Christmas Series today entitled, To Us a Son is Given. In this message coming out of John 3:16-21 we look specifically at what kind of love it was that spurred the sending of Jesus.

The song, "Mary, Did You Know?" is beautiful, but the answer is clear in Scripture: yes, she knew. In this Christmas sermon, Dr. Randy White explains, using passages from Luke 1 and 2.

In the providence of God, we arrive at Hebrews 5 in the Christmas season. It is always a job when you can preach sermons that relate to the season without having to depart from the texts you were already scheduled to preach.  At Christmas, we celebrate the incarnation.  The truths presented to us about Jesus in Hebrews 5 make the incarnation precious to us.  They remind us why the incarnation is not just a curiosity; it is absolutely crucial to the salvation that we now rest in.  The truths of this chapter answer the question, “Why did the Son of God have to become a man?”  It is the doctrine of the incarnation considered from the vantage point of the meditation necessary for salvation.  It is the doctrine of the incarnation considered in its relationship to Christ’s role as high priest.

Text: Luke 12:29-38 
Title: We Worry 
Preacher: Rev. Greg Brower 
We long for more. Especially at Christmastime, we long for more. Not the common longing for toys and family, carols and jolly feelings, eggnog and Santa. But a real, deep longing for something that actually fills us up and satisfies. We long for Christ to be with us. Even those of us with Christ in our lives are often overwhelmed by the wants and worries of life. We waver and we grow weary. Can this human longing for more, which is so endemic in our lives, be overcome at Christmas? There is only one possible, positive answer to that question: Christ. We are a people who worry. We worry about war and global warming, politics and finances, kids and parents. We worry about the amount of our worry. Jesus reminds us today how we can be a people of quiet confidence rather than fret and worry.

Calvary Church is a fellowship of believers who pursue the God who passionately pursues a lost world; we do this by connecting with one another, through worship, by the Word, to the world. Our purpose is creating life change.

We post full-length teachings by Pastor Skip Heitzig.

Calvary Church with Skip Heitzig

The birth of Jesus Christ provided the world with hope. That exceptional nativity would lead to His perfect life, His atoning death, His bodily resurrection, and His eventual return to rule the world. As we begin this short series leading up to Christmas titled Hope Foretold, we first consider the prediction of His birth. When Jesus was born in Bethlehem, God was providing the world with three gifts: He gave us a sign, a Son, and a Savior. Let’s see why that matters.

Welcome! This channel contains sermons that I've recently preached and occasionally other videos related to ministry. It also has the occasional video of a kid doing something cute (what YouTube channel doesn't?). Plus, there are some videos related to my military escapades. Grab a cup of coffee or a frosty mug of root beer and watch to your heart's content...or until the the zombie apocalypse happens.

The True Reason to Celebrate Christmas 
is to celebrate the birth of Jesus. Although some celebrate with the Christmas trees and lights, swapping presents among family and friends. And that is a good thing, but let’s keep the thought of why, who and what we are celebrating this day for. Happy Birthday Jesus!

When we think of preparing for Christmas, we probably begin to think of buying gifts in time, setting aside enough money, coordinating family events, attending Christmas services, setting out our advent wreaths and calendars, and preparing for the logistics of the season.  But is that how we should be spending our Advent season of preparation?  Is God hoping that we will be super organized this Christmas season, or would He rather we be preparing our hearts?  What's more important, a clean home or a clean heart?  Which one are you putting more time into preparing for Christmas?  (A sermon video by Pastor Dave Stratton, at New Hope Christian Chapel)

Video Sermons - 1 Cor 1:26-29 - The Painful Joy of a Humbled Heart  - New Hope Christian Chapel

Each year the gospel passage for Advent 1 speaks not of preparing for a Savior's birth, but of being ready for his return. The "hope" of Advent is supposed to be bigger than hoping for a good Christmas. It is the promise that no matter how crazy and frightening the world may seem, in the end... God.
