A Midweek Christmas Message: From Heaven to Earth

This is the first of a series of Christmas sermons in which we'll consider why the birth of Jesus Christ is still celebrated around the world. In this message, we find Jesus described as the Immanuel, meaning "God with us". Why did so many people who knew Jesus come to believe that?

Just Another Melodic Christmas Monday - God Made Low

Christmas is coming!  So, I thought it was time to share some Christmas songs and hymns on the Melodic Monday blog post, not only for you to enjoy listening to but also to consider sharing with your church if the song is new to you.

"God made low" is written Jason Hansen and Bob Kauflin from Sovereign Grace Music.  It focuses our attention on Jesus Christ being the Immanuel, "God with us", which was the theme of the message preached last Sunday morning (which will be posted on the blog on Wednesday).

It's December, so it seems appropriate to have some Christmas-themed songs!  Here is "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel" from Sovereign Grace Music's album, "Prepare Him Room".  The lyric have been updated, allowing the song to progress from Old Testament hope to New Testament reality.
