Send me a Text Message!In this episode, we are going to talk about favor. That's an interesting word isn't it? Favor. It's used multiple times in the Christmas stories. When we think of the word favor, it's usually used in a sentence like this, "Hey would you do me a favor?" When we ask someone to do us a favor we're saying, "You don't owe me. I don't necessarily deserve this, haven't earned it, but I'm wondering if you would do it anyway. Do me a favor." Often that's the question behind our prayers is, "God would you please do me a favor." The Dictionary suggests that favor is kindness beyond what is due or usual. It makes me think that perhaps the a good two word description of Christmas is "God's Favor." As we take a peak at Mary the mother of Jesus, we can pray, "God would you do me a favor?"

As we enter this holiday week, we have much to learn from the story of the conception of Jesus in the womb of Mary.  Today, we bring insight into how fear can steal your favor.  Listen in to maintain the favor you need for your purpose.  

Luke 2:39-40; 52 - Favor

Preaching: Mike RothMuch is wrong with the world and it breaks our hearts. We feel discouraged. We feel overwhelmed. We feel hopeless. Our Advent sermon series, Held by Longing, will plumb the depths of our sorrow. But then, we'll keep going. We'll follow the prophets of the Hebrew Scriptures in considering how our discouragement, overwhelm, and hopelessness can, like the North Star, hold us in light that guides us onward. Onward, to participate in Divine Love, which is capable of making all things new.Pearl Church exists to express a sacred story and to extend a common table that animate life by love. A primary expression of our sacred story is the weekly sermon. If our sermons inspire you to ponder the sacred, to consider the mystery and love of God, and to live bountifully, would you consider supporting our work?

Leitura Bíblica Do Dia: EFÉSIOS 2:11-22 Plano De Leitura Anual: MIQUEIAS 6–7; APOCALIPSE 13  Já fez seu devocional hoje? Aproveite e marque um amigo para fazer junto com você! Confira:  As famílias e amigos tinham permanecido separados pelo Muro de Berlim desde que o governo da Alemanha Oriental o erguera em 1961. Essa barreira impedia que os cidadãos fugissem para a Alemanha Ocidental. Na verdade, de 1949 até o dia em que a estrutura foi construída, estima-se que mais de 2,5 milhões de alemães conseguiram ir para o lado ocidental. O presidente dos Estados Unidos, Ronald Reagan, de frente para o muro, em 1987, disse: “Derrubem este muro!”. Suas palavras geraram uma onda de mudanças que permitiram a sua queda, em 1989, e a gloriosa reunificação da Alemanha. Paulo escreveu sobre um “muro de inimizade” derrubado por Jesus (EFÉSIOS 2:14). O muro existia entre os judeus (povo escolhido de Deus) e os gentios (os outros povos). Era simbolizado pelo soreg (parede divisória) no antigo templo erguido por Herodes o Grande, em Jerusalém. Impedia os gentios de irem além dos pátios externos do templo, embora dali pudessem ver os pátios internos. Mas Jesus trouxe “paz” e reconciliação entre judeus e gentios; entre Deus e todos os povos. Jesus fez isso “ao derrubar o muro de inimizade que nos separava” por “sua morte na cruz” (vv.14,16). As “boas-novas de paz” possibilitam a união de todos pela fé em Cristo (vv.17-18). Muitas coisas nos dividem, mas pela graça de Deus esforcemo-nos para viver a paz e a união encontradas em Jesus (vv.19-22)  Por: TOM FELTEN

Dr. Richard Parker teaches from the series: Christmas, in the book of Luke, verses 1:26 - 38

Join us today as Pastor John concludes his series "The Mission of the Messiah" with today's focus "Faith, Fear, and Favor or God" while giving us four points of Who He Is, How He Came, and The Purpose of His Birth, and Four thruths to help us navigate the uncertainties of life. Key Passage: Luke 1:26-38 & Matthew 1:18-25. December 21st, 2025

 THE ABANDONMENT OF THE MELTING POT IDEAL Colleague Victor Davis Hanson. Hanson asserts that America is abandoning the "melting pot" ideal of assimilation—where diverse people integrate to become Americans—in favor of tribalism and identity politics. He claims this regression into racial and group classifications threatens the country's stability, as elites prioritize "equality of result" over the traditional American promise of "equality of opportunity." Furthermore, Hanson warns that this shift resembles a totalitarian attempt to control language and history, creating a society obsessed with racial essentialism rather than character. NUMBER 3

IMMIGRATION POLICY AND THE EROSION OF CITIZENSHIP Colleague Victor Davis Hanson. Hansoncritiques the 1965 Hart-Celler Act for destroying meritocratic immigration in favor of family ties and the 1986 amnesty for failing to secure the border as promised. He argues that maintaining open borders and ignoring laws creates a large, non-citizen constituency that undermines the legal and cultural concept of American citizenship, fundamentally altering the electorate. Hanson contrasts this with the experience of legal immigrants, noting that the distinction of citizenship offers a dignity and equality often unavailable in their countries of origin. NUMBER 2

Never interpret the hardness of the way as a sign of failure. Favor from on high only fits into the container of the fear of the Lord, and is often forged in the furnace of hardship. Mary was highly favored, not because she was perfect, but by God's choice. His grace determines our value. Our value doesn't determine His grace. Trust Him when you can't trust yourself!

Tune in to today's Sermon: Mary, an example of uncommon favor Date: December 19th, 2025 Speaker: Clement Adu Amoako Bible verses: Luke 1:26-35 The Promise of a Saviour was said in the Bible by several writers. The first two bible verses would recognize the Promises that were pronounced in the Old Testament Isaiah 7:14  John 4 - Jesus had an encounter with a certain woman who was looking forward to a saviour. Genesis 18:1-30 So many things can come in your way but God can solve them all. Just like Joseph, God solved all the problems he faced Genesis 6:8-12

Proverbs 18:22–24 highlights God's design for blessing through relationships. Finding a wife is described as finding a good thing and receiving favor from the Lord, reminding us that covenant companionship is a divine gift, not a mere achievement. Yet the passage also warns that many acquaintances do not equal true friendship, while one faithful friend can be closer than a brother. In today's Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart explore the difference between God-given relationships and shallow connections, the blessing of covenant faithfulness, and the enduring strength found in loyal, godly friendship.

Strategy for nonprofits is not a plan to perfect but a human practice—built through care, curiosity, and intentional choices in the face of uncertainty. As the year draws to a close, episode 138 of Nonprofit Mission: Impact brings together reflections from a wide range of nonprofit leaders and thinkers, all responding to one central question: What should nonprofit leaders ask themselves to be more strategic?  Across topics as varied as crisis management, equity, careers, evaluation, organizational design, culture, and innovation, a clear throughline emerges—strategy is deeply human work. Rather than offering abstract frameworks, the episode highlights: practical, grounding questions and practices that help leaders navigate uncertainty with clarity, intention, and care.  An invitation to slow down, resist urgency, tend to themselves and their teams,  Why it's important to surface assumptions, seek multiple perspectives, and make decisions rooted in both alignment and capacity.  Together, these reflections offer a steadying guide for leaders facing complexity in the year ahead.

PREVIEW: Chile's Political Shift Toward Capitalism and Democracy: Colleague Ernesto Araujo discusses Chile's recent political shift, where voters rejected a far-left constitution in favor of capitalism and democracy, arguing that unlike in Brazil, Chile's institutions remained healthy enough to resist the "destabilization" of socialism because the left lacked sufficient time to destroy the country's social fabric. 1903 CHILE

Every year people spend a month (or more) with Christmas on their minds. They decorate their homes - inside and out - and buy gifts for loved ones in anticipation of one singular day on the calendar. Christian and non-Christian alike celebrate together in this way.While the traditions and excitement are fun and certainly not sinful, the depth of the day we celebrate is easily lost on us. Even as faithful Christians, many of us fly right past the fact that we are celebrating the day God became a man. We have lost the wonder of God in flesh.In fact, without the truth that Jesus is God, Christmas is meaningless. It could be a celebration of the birth of a great man - even a sacrificial man - but if He was not God, He has not saved us.In this series, we will be spending the month on the important doctrine of the deity of Jesus - it truly is the wonder of it all.--In week three, we see the account of Jesus as a child. Luke is drawing our attention to the humanity of Jesus who grew in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and man - largely because of the faithful, regular, customary practices of faith of Mary and Joseph.

What does it mean to be chosen by grace? Dr. Megan Marshman explains Mary's encounter with the angel Gabriel—a life-changing moment that reveals the power of God's unearned favor. Though Mary was seemingly ordinary, she was called “highly favored” and invited to experience the impossible. This teaching highlights that grace isn't something we achieve; it's a divine invitation to trust God beyond our limitations. Like Mary, we're called to surrender fully, embrace our God-given identity, and step into a greater purpose through faith.

Pastor Brent continues our Advent series, The Greatest Gift, by exploring the story of Mary and the gift of God's favor. Through Luke 1, we're reminded that God's favor is an undeserved gift of grace—offered by a God who is for us and still at work in our lives today.
