The Christmas Letdown
The King's Ransom
2018.12.16 - Drew Karschner - "The King’s Ransom"
When it comes to having a baby there are certain standards that parents must follow. It was the same for Jesus in his time. Joseph and Mary had to follow the Old Testament law when Jesus was born, and during this event in Jesus’ life, we see a clue into who Jesus really was and what he came to do.
Luke 2:21-24
The King's Ultimatum
2018.12.09 - Drew Karschner - "The King’s Ultimatum"
Jesus never shied away from who He was. He claimed to be the Son of God and that angered many religious people. And with His claim, He gave people a choice. It was clear and simple: believe what He said or reject it. There has never been a middle ground.
Luke 4:14-15
Making Room For Room
2017.12.24 - Drew Karschner - "Making Room for Room"
The reality Jesus faced at His birth is the same one He faces today: There is no room for Him. That's what the innkeeper said at the time of his birth, and many people are still saying it today. But there is more room than we think; we just have to make it. The question is: Will we make room for Jesus?
Luke 2:7
Making Room For The Wait
2017.12.17 - Drew Karschner - "Making Room for the Wait"
Have you ever had to wait for something really important? In the Bible, Simeon was promised by God that he would see Jesus, but he had to trust in God’s faithfulness. The question is, do you trust God to answer His promise even if it doesn’t happen when you think it will.
Luke 2
Making Room For A Sign
2017.12.10 - Drew Karschner - "Making Room for a Sign"
One of the most unique characters of the first Christmas are the shepherds. But why did God choose them to be a part of one of the greatest stories ever told? Throughout history, God frequently uses average people to accomplish something truly amazing, and that’s exactly what happened with the shepherds.
Luke 2
