The Wisemen followed the star for two years. What guides your life? Can you be the guiding light for someone else?

God loves you as you are. He's not waiting for you to be ready for Him, to become more religious, or to get your life right.

Jesus was born "to preach good news to the poor... to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners."

Christmas is the fulfillment of God's promise, the birth of grace, and the beginning of the end of evil. It is our reason for hope.

Do we, like the angels, bear witness to what we already know? Do we, like the shepherds, embrace the hope of Jesus' coming?

Thank God for all the blessings, big and small, that He sprinkles through our lives, and remember: nothing compares to the Cross.

Baptism symbolizes the death of the old life, our cleansing, and the rebirth to new life. Church membership is a commitment to the Body of Christ. We celebrate these commitments to Jesus.

God entrusts us with children, His treasures. Child dedications are our commitment to raise them in His name.

Communion reminds us of God's commitment to come back and restore everything. And to love us and work in us now.

In zombie movies, the living dead are out of place. Single-minded. Fearless. All but unstoppable. Does that describe we who are also free from death?
