Habits--those things we do every day. We all have good ones and bad ones. We look at some biblical principles about forming good routines that can help us grow the kind of things we want in our lives.

Jesus came as an infant the first Christmas: Fully human; fully God. That’s the paradox we believe as Christians. Beyond this unprecedented pairing, it defines how we see God and how He sees us.

Each Christmas, we Christians assert that Jesus was born to a virgin mother. To some this seems like such an outlandish claim, but to others it encapsulates a powerful truth of relationship with God. We’ll talk about it this morning.

Every Christmas we sing, "All is calm, all is bright," but did that really describe the first Christmas? More importantly, does it describe this Christmas for you? This year, Christmas can actually be calm and hopeful. Interested? Give this week's teaching a listen.

As followers of Christ, we approach life from a different angle than other people. This will make us stand out in the crowd—hopefully in a positive way. A perspective so different forms a community so unique that others can't help but notice.

As much as we'd like to be thankful people all the time, there's something that seems to get in the way. That something is worry. We take a look at what Jesus says about worry and how we should address that in our lives.

There's a spiritual dynamic that we need to understand if our lives will be filled with thankfulness--God is big; we are small. Accepting this arrangement allows us to see the amazing love God wants to pour into our lives.

Anyone ever invest their life in you in some way to make your life better? Have you told them “thank you”? Not only is it a gift to them, it benefits you as well. We take a look at gratitude with a goal of expressing it to someone this week. (The introduction the the message was not recorded. Sorry about that.)
