As we began to see yesterday, when it comes to dealing with questions about why bad things happen to us, that one of the explanations is that God’s understanding is so much greater than our own! He stands outside of time, and sees and knows all, and therefore His ways – while sometimes inscrutable to us – are nonetheless always consistent with His nature. And His nature is to protect us, because He loves us with an everlasting love! Join us today as we conclude this message regarding God’s greater understanding.

Have you ever wondered why some prayers seem to get answered and others don’t? Why some people who are sick recover, and others die? Several years ago, Pastor Chris McCool preached this sermon in an attempt to address some of these problems. You see, sometimes we forget that God is so much greater than we are, and that His understanding of all things is that much greater as well! Listen as Pastor McCool preaches about God’s greater understanding of time, of our needs, and of our destination.

Today is Christmas Day, the apex of a season that the world promotes as “the most wonderful time of the year.” In this festive time, we look forward to family gatherings, office parties, and the giving and receiving of gifts. But sometimes at this time of the year we find ourselves depressed instead of joyful. While the world points us to a “white Christmas,” we all too often find ourselves experiencing a “blue Christmas.” Perhaps the problem is that we have bought into the world’s unrealistic expectations. What do we want for Christmas? The answer to this question will determine whether we find joy and peace, or disappointment and depression, during this holiday season. Join us today as we ask ourselves, “What do we want for Christmas?”

In the sermon today, Elder David Crawford tells us the story of two sad sisters, Mary and Martha. These two sisters of Lazarus, who has died, say the same thing to Jesus but with a different spirit.

As Elder John Morgan Owens began to teach us yesterday, we ought to live a life of sacrificial discipleship because of the ultimate Sacrifice of Christ on the cross. This life of service does not get us to heaven, but rather is a result of that great work of God. Join us today for the conclusion of this sermon, which teaches us from Scripture about the kind of sacrificial life we ought to lead in service to Christ.

There is only one sacrifice that is sufficient to put away our sins, and that, of course, is the sacrifice of Christ. This sacrifice completely saved us for eternity, and there is nothing we could do in order to obtain it. But once this precious gift of eternal life has been applied to us in the new birth, there are sacrifices that we ought to make in our daily walk. A life of sacrificial discipleship is not lived in order to be saved eternally, but rather because we have already been saved eternally! Join us today as Elder John Morgan Owens begins to teach us from Scripture about living a sacrificial life.
