Don’t you love the feeling of Christmas?
Cheer, wonder, excitement, generosity.
This year, our whole church, will be taking a journey through the feelings of the First Christmas through the Eyes of those who were there. Our children will be having their own special experience at LifeKids, in Professor Playtime’s Christmas Shop of Wonders.
Listen to That Christmas Feeling | Herod’s Fear
December 15, 2013 | Pastor Brad Murphy
Matthew 2:1-18
Fool’s Fear, Wisemen Worship Pt.1
Christmas time can often be a time of fear. If fear has it’s way it could kill your Christmas. Scripture says that, “Perfect Love, casts out all fear.”
Fool’s Fear
- Social fear will cause us to become busy and overworked as you try to keep everyone happy and attend all the parties.
- Economic fear will cause us to become materialistic as we strive to keep up with the Jones’s.
- Fear of past hurts will cause us to become bitter, lonely, and grieving during this season of great joy for all people.
- Fear of losing control will cause us miss Jesus, as Christmas turns into a holiday all about ME.
Be encouraged to keep Christ alive this Christmas, and avoid letting paranoid fear make it a not-so-great Christmas.
Next Sunday, Wisemen Worship. We will finish this 2-part lesson, with the other side of this story.
