It’s becoming harder and harder to “do what is right according to the Bible” in the culture in which we live. But if we know and believe, that “abiding in Christ, and knowing the truth sets us free,” then we must strive now courageously to live faithful lives. Some say that there is a “heavy price to pay for that.” Maybe, but it’s worse to live lives of faithless fear in the face of bullying and temptation. Remember, Jesus says that He has come to give us abundant life…..courageous faith loves to hear that!

In a world of secular chaos, the Church can’t just hide behind “religious liberty” it must present its voice as one of beauty and virtue. As believers we seek to share the good news of the Bible with anyone who will listen, but we also have a role to play in blessing and preserving our culture too.

KEY POINTS….

Christmas comes every year, and for those who trust in Christ, that is a very good thing indeed. The holiday is a reminder that no matter what is going on in the world, or in our lives, that faith in Christ is key….and ordering our lives towards “Faith, Family, Friends, Community, and only when necessary, government” is the way to keep things in balance and to keep the power of proper priorities in living life abundantly.

KEY POINTS….

The New Year is a reminder that we can begin afresh, right wrongs, learn from mistakes and live a better life. The doctors discuss various lessons from Charles Dicken’s, A Christmas Carol.
