This morning, as we look at 1 Peter 1:6-9, it is my hope that you will be able to really understand our present joy.

As we look at this passage of scripture this morning, I want you to do just that, take hold of your living hope through the power of the resurrection of Jesus. To do that let me tell you about three different types of hope that we see here in Peter’s letter.

But seriously, this morning I want to talk to you about some resolutions, some commitments, which I guarantee, will make a radical difference in your lives, if you’ll just follow through on them. In fact, what I want to do is to offer to you a way of starting the New Year in a way that will significantly change your life.

This morning, as we look at our text, 2 Corinthians 4:3-6, in a message entitled “The Lights of God’s Glory,” it is my hope that you will more fully understand why the real meaning of Christmas still escapes so many people today in hopes that you may bring them the same light that you have received.

That is what I want us to look at this morning, how heaven came down, in an effort to remember to bring God glory this Christmas.

As Prince of Peace, He could have chosen a palace, but He didn’t. He could have chosen a comfortable home, but He didn’t. He chose a manger… a stable for animals.

I want to draw your attention to the faith of Mary. It’s a faith that brings forth the accomplishment of God’s plan. It’s a faith that you and I are called to have also.

Today, on this last message of our Not a Fan series, originally written by Kyle Idleman, I want you to ask, and hopefully answer for yourself the question, “Is Jesus Enough?” Is Jesus enough, or are you seeking something else, much like many in the crowd that followed Jesus searching for their next meal?
