This Sunday, we look at Jesus' FIRST EVER recorded sermon in Luke 4:16-21... and it was about 2 minutes long! But it's packed with promises and passion as Jesus addresses what burdens us most; poverty, sorrow, suffering, bondage, oppression... it's all here, and somehow there is hope.

How do you stand strong through the testing and temptations of life? What weapons do you need to win the battles you face? 

Find a time to sit down for thirty minutes or so in a comfortable, quiet, undistracted place – preferably in the early part of each week. Have your Bible and journal handy as you prepare for each week’s devotional.

Start your time with a few, calm breaths to still your heart and mind. Ask God to help you focus on Him.

As you meditate on these various passages of Scripture, focusing on the life of Christ, be aware of what draws you to Christ, challenges you, amazes you or gives you pause. Take time to journal about and ponder these internal movements.

Can you imagine Jesus growing up, from around 2-12 years old? Because there's no written record of his life at that time, there's lots to wonder about. What kind of child was he? How did he act with his parents? What were his childhood friends like?

This Sunday, we join thousands of churches around the world in reflecting on the visit of the Magi; the wise men who came to see, worship, and offer gifts to Jesus. This reflection is traditionally called "Epiphany" because it marks the first moments when the reality of who Jesus was began to set in.

This Sunday, Steve Taylor is guiding us as we ponder the poetic, dramatic declaration of the heavenly hosts. They knew what this moment was all about, and they held nothing back. Let's see together what these words and promises can mean for us! 

“Joy to the world, the Lord is COME!”

Mary's song in Luke 1 reminds us that God shows up with mercy, with a mission, and with a promise. Let's discover what all this means for us!
