I am so in awe of my God and I love bragging on Jesus, so here it goes. This past Christmas Day was so priceless for me. First of all, I had the privilege to preach God’s word on Christmas Day and to look and see God’s house full of worshippers who were more interested in His Presence than in their presents. Secondly to have four hands raised during the invitation to pray the sinners prayer. God ceases not to amaze me with His love and mercy for His created image! Thirdly, I was blessed to hold my six week old little great niece, Laney. She is so precious and loves her g uncle Steve! Jesus my Savior, my BC family and my domestic family have made a three fold cord that are responsible for another Amazing Christmas! Thank you and I love you all!

The true meaning of Christmas is the birth of Jesus, the Savior of the world. Our greatest need as humans is salvation from our sins and there is only one who qualifies to satisfy the justice of God in regard to our sins. The one and only is Jesus. Jesus is the center of it all. He is the main event from the cradle, the crowd, the cross and the crown. It is all about Jesus! He is the alpha and the omega and everything in between. Make sure you don’t put Jesus out in the cold like the inn keeper, who had no room. Put Jesus in the center of your life everyday and let everything revolve around him.
A father wanted to read the paper, but was being bothered by his little daughter, Vanessa. Finally, he tore a sheet out of his magazine, on which was printed the map of the world. Tearing it into small pieces, he gave it to Vanessa, and said, “Go into the other room and see if you can
put this together.” After a few minutes, Vanessa returned and handed him the map correctly fitted together. The father was surprised and asked how she had
finished so quickly.
“Oh,” she said, “on the other side of the paper was a picture of Jesus.
When I got Jesus in His place, then the world came out all right.”
Christmas is only right when we get Jesus right, at the center of it all!
Merry Christmas to all!

Every organization has its negative stress points.  What do you mean by negative stress points? I am so glad you asked.  Negative stress points are matters you consider so important that they are always stressed at any opportunity given!  For example a political party would always take advantage of stressing the negative of their opponent.  Salesmen sometimes use this approach, stress tearing down their competition to promote and sale their product.  Sadly some ministries are only being built on the negative of what they are against and NEVER on what they are FOR. When this approach is used, you are only gathering bitter people whose only common interest is tearing down others.  This is a strategy of Satan to promote an unhealthy competitive spirit that causes ministries to attack one another publicly which in turn gives the lost and unsaved another excuse to reject our message.  If Satan can get you caught up in the great competition of negative mud-slinging then you will never focus on the great commission.  Time is too short and there are too many lost souls in need of the Savior for ministries to be only stressing other ministries faults and differences.  My point is this, the Word of God stresses using our time, talents,energy and resources to reach the lost.  Go into all the world and preach the gospel (good news)!  The gospel(good news) is the power of God unto salvation!  God bless you as you read this blog and let’s work together FOR the great commission.
