Peace. It is something everyone seems to want and they look everywhere for it... the one thing people need to know.... there is only one place to get it. Jesus.

What do you want for Christmas? Hope? If so, where do you get it and how do you hold onto it? What is real hope?

Look at Matthew 1:18-25 with us as we see HOPE come to earth.

Today we give thanks for what Christ did on the cross and is still doing in our lives today.

In John 9, Jesus encounters a man born blind leading to a discussion amongst the disciples and Pharisees as to why...

How will you respond when the "ask" by Jesus gets tough? Look at John 6 and the encounter with the crowd.

n John 8, a woman caught in the act of adultery was drug before Jesus in order to trap Him into saying something that would get the crowds against Him... how he responds is nothing short of amazing grace. Have you encountered this grace?

In John 5, Jesus encounters a man who has been disabled for 38 years and asks him a simple question... DO YOU WANT TO BE HEALED?

In John 4:46-54 we see an encounter between Jesus and a Royal Official where the Official's son is dying. The man begs Jesus to come but in vs 50 Jesus says, Go, your son will live... and the man goes at the Word of Jesus. His Word is Enough, isn't it?

In John 3 and 4 we see two different people's encounters with Jesus that result in two different reactions. Jesus is the Living Water - come to Him and thirst no more.

In John 1 we see Nathanael introduced by Phillip to Jesus with three simple words... COME AND SEE.
