Christmas is more than a historical story, a cultural tradition, or just a church remembrance. Christmas is the time of year we celebrate Jesus, our Emmanuel, who came to earth to teach us how to live and through his sacrifice makes it possible for us to live with Him forever. While it can seem like the Christian life is a list of impossible to follow rules, it is actually a grace-filled relationship that leads to inner peace and an outward behavior change. Listen and be encouraged from Titus 2:11-14 that knowing Jesus and learning how to live righteously is one of the greatest gifts we can ever receive.

Of all the characters in the Christmas story, the simple shepherds seem the most out of place. Why would God send His Angels to announce the biggest news of all time, that Jesus the Savior has been born, to these unimportant, undervalued shepherds? Listen and be encouraged to be be faithful like a shepherd.  (Luke 2:8-17) Pastor Chris Teien [email protected] #rockwellchurchmn #virginiamn #ironrangeW.E.L.L.

Let’s start the Christmas season by looking at the role of Angels working out God’s plans and working in our lives.

It’s been a hard year and you might not be that excited about Thanksgiving. When we take our eyes off ourselves and focus on the Lord are hearts are encouraged and we are inspired to feel and act thankful as part of our daily walk with God. Listen and be encouraged and see how Psalm 96 shows us ways we can put our thankfulness to the Lord and others in action. “Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” – 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18 Pastor Chris Teien [email protected] #rockwellchurchmn #virginiamn #ironrangeW.E.L.L.

It’s absolutely amazing that the God who created us and can save us from sin also offers us rewards in this life and the life to come. Listen to be encouraged by God’s Rewards for You “And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.” (Hebrews 11:6).

This Sunday our topic is about sleep, rest and recreation.  God who created us knows that we need to recharge by resting and enjoying life with a little recreation. Did you know that rest and sleep is a gift from God? “It is useless for you to work so hard from early morning until late at night, anxiously working for food to eat; for God gives rest to his loved ones”. Psalm 127:2 (NLT). When we are anxious we can suffer sleepless nights and when things aren’t going as we hope we can get restless. A Topical Bible “Sleep” Study reveals some very interesting things about sleep, rest and recreation and we are going to look at some of them this Sunday. Listen and be encouraged to enjoy a proper balance of work, sleep, rest and recreation in your life. This will be a fun and inspirational time to better understand God’s principles for living a Christ-honoring life.

Fear is real and can keep us from fulfilling God’s purpose in our life. Faith can give us courage to face fear with confidence. The Bible is full of examples of fearful people that were empowered and strengthened by the Lord to succeed. Listen and be  encouraged to overcome the power of fear in your Christian life.
