Exmas or Christmas - Isaiah 40:1-5 New 12/02/08 Many years ago, C.S. Lewis wrote, "Exmas and Christmas." It takes place on the island of Niatirb, which is Britain spelled backwards. Every winter the Niatirbians celebrated a festival they called, "Exmas."
They packed the marketplaces in all sorts of weather in order to get ready for the celebration. They looked for cards and gifts for their relatives and friends. As the days counted down, the preparation began to take its toll. Many of the people grew pale and weary. They looked as though they were under a tremendous strain. Some even missed the big day altogether because they were so exhausted, or they had gotten sick from overeating and drinking.
But there was another holiday held on the same day as Exmas. The Niatirbians called it " Christmas." It was a holy day, but it was difficult to keep it a holy because Exmas was so distracting.
The point of Lewis's story is that there are really two different holidays celebrated on December 25. One is celebrated by almost everyone in the United States and that would be Exmas. The other is celebrated by the followers of Jesus, and it is called Christmas. ...More

What Will You Give?- Matt. 2:1-12 Christmas is more characterized by shopping rather than the Saviour. More thought is given to gifts for the family and friends than the gift from God. More time is given to celebration than to adoration. Giving should characterize the spirit of Christmas. ...More

Unto You Is Born - Luke 2:1-14 The news of the birth of the child in Bethlehem is different from the news of the arrival of any emperor or king. The angel of the Lord points to Bethlehem, saying, "For to you is born this day a Saviour." For our sake God became man. For us He gave Himself that we may be lifted up and drawn unto Him. ...More

Happy New Year! - Psalm 100:4 Everyday in our community, we read of violence and death. There is so much unkindness and plain selfishness. How can we dare to be happy? No one should make happiness his or her goal in life. Happiness is never experienced by seeking it directly. Happiness is a by-product. ...More

Challenge Of Change! - Malachi 3:6, Hebrews. 11:25 Someone has said: " When we have more memories than dreams, life is over." When we have greater memories than dreams we will never make a difference in changing our world for God. We must know where we are going and what we are going to do! ...More

A Future With Hope!- John 14:1-3 Whatever each new day may bring, Christians face the future with hope. Hope is the cornerstone of Christian faith. Christians have a responsibility of nourishing hope. To claim to believe in God who can do all things, and then live without hope, is to tarnish our Christian testimony. ... More

One Day At A Time! - Matt. 6:34 Many of us live under the crushing burden of accumulated yesterdays and fearful tomorrows. To do so disqualifies us and robs us of the opportunity to really live in the present. Someone has said that there are two days that we should eliminate from our calendar. One of those days is yesterday, the other is tomorrow. We must beware lest we let yesterday or tomorrow hinder us from doing our best today. ... More
