Podcasts about Home for Christmas

During this episode of Youth Group Chronicles, our guests learned to use wisdom when choosing songs to sing during prison ministry. For instance, you should not "I'll be home for Christmas" because it may result in all of the prisoners crying.

I think it goes without saying that IT IS GETTING REAL!

Jonathan Taylor Thomas faces an impossible journey when he is left stranded in the desert, thousands of miles from home, with no money and only a few days left until Christmas. Join the boys at NFG as we wrap up our final holiday present of the year - 1998's "I'll Be Home For Christmas". One of the most scrolled-over movies on Disney+.

Pastor Doug continued our "Home For Christmas" series with an encouragement that Jesus removed the great barrier between us and God.

The blessing of home isn't about a building, a town, or a group of people. Home is where you're loved for who you are and fully in God's presence. This Christmas, we remember that true home is found in God's love and the warmth we share with one another, wherever we may be.

When the early church first began in Acts, it was not a building. The early church was not a place people went but it was who they were. The bible tells of a people who were devoted and intensely passionate about teaching, fellowship, the breaking of the bread and the things of God. In this sermon, Pastor Byron Ellis goes through the five core values of Redemption to explain how the church becomes a family. May we follow the example of the early church and remember that we don't "go" to church ... we "are" the church.

Audrey Eager, ferry passenger

As the clock winds down to Christmas, thousands are coming through the gates at Shannon Airport to spend the festive season with their loved ones. Well over 100,000 people are due to touch down at the Clare base in the coming days in its busiest year since 2009. It's over 60 years since Frank Sinatra sang the words "it's nice to go travelling but it's so much nicer to come home", and those lines are ringing true for the multitudes pouring through the gates of Shannon Airport this week. No fewer than 115,000 people are expected to land in Shannon over the Christmas period in a year when for the time since 2009, over two million passengers have passed through the facility. Airport Director Niall Kearns says all the stops have been pulled out to make those returning home feel welcome this Christmas. As passengers come through the arrivals doors, they're greeted by the melodic tones of the St Aidan's National School choir. Its principal Jane O'Leary says it's a great opportunity for the budding singers to take the stage and be heard. Each person patiently standing by has a different story to tell - with someone seeing their loved ones for the first time in years while others have had a slightly more bearable wait. As the arrivals doors open, those on the final leg of their voyage realise they'll be home for Christmas, not in their dreams, but in reality.

I'll Be Home For Christmas. There Will Be No End. Chris Scoz by Home Church

Will you be "home" for Christmas?  What images does that bring up for you?  How is "home" best to be identified in Jesus?

We are back once again with an early Christmas present for you in the form of another delicious Cast-A-Role This time, we are traveling back to 1987 to review Arnold Schwarzenegger's futuristic action romp, The Running Man. We start this week off talking all things Christmas dinner, and the divisive Brussels sprout Nick gets reminded of something he watched in the lead-up to the recording by a rather interesting discussion As expected, the review leads to some contrasting opinions. During our recasting, Jim is left flabbergasted by Sam and Nick And we round things out with a Christmas-inspired edition of Audio Aperitif

The notions of home and Christmas often go hand-in-hand. Being home accentuates the emotion and allows God to use joy to reorient our lives. But how do we handle joy's fleeting nature? Or try to accept it when it comes in hard times? Join us today and learn how to better experience the joy of going home!

Send Mary and Kelsey a Message!In this episode, Mary and Kelsey host a doubleheader listening party with two iconic boy band albums: *NSYNC's 1998 sophomore album, Home For Christmas and Backstreet Boys' 2022 holiday album debut, A Very Backstreet Christmas.

Cynicism can build walls, brick by brick, around a weary heart. Even John the Baptist, the one who prepared the way, found himself questioning when the story didn't unfold as he hoped. But Jesus, in His gentleness, always comes close to meet our doubts. This week, we'll discover how Christmas calls us to lay down our skepticism and trust again in the God who makes all things new.

Key #1 - Home is where you are LovedJohn 3:16 NLTFor this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.Luke 15:17-24 NLT17 “When he came to his senses, he said, ‘How many of my father's hired servants have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! 18-19 I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired servants.' 20 So he got up and went to his father. “But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him. 21 “The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.'22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. 23-24 Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let's have a feast and celebrate. For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' So they began to celebrate. Key #2 - Home is a place of BelongingEphesians 2:19 NLTSo now you Gentiles are no longer strangers and foreigners. You are citizens along with all of God's holy people. You are members of God's family.John 12:1-2 NLTSix days before the Passover celebration began, Jesus arrived in Bethany, the home of Lazarus—the man he had raised from the dead. 2 A dinner was prepared in Jesus' honor.

Dr. Tom Curran is joined by his adult daughter, Arianna Curran, to recall her favorite childhood Advent and Christmas traditions. Arianna talks about attending Franciscan University of Steubenville with her siblings, living in a “household,” praying with people, and more!

Pastor Doug kicked off our new "Home For Christmas" series with an encouragement that there is nothing that will satisfy you this Christmas except Jesus. The Good News is He as already come near to us!

God wants everyone to experience His joy, no matter their starting point. This feels great when we're receiving grace, but what about when we're the ones forgiving, accommodating, or celebrating with family or friends who have hurt us, or failed to meet our expectations? At Christmas, we're reminded that Jesus left His heavenly home to bring us into God's family and invites us to extend that same grace, creating space for others to find their way home.

On today's episode, I'm in Franklin, Tennessee for our third annual Come Home for Christmas weekend event! Join us for a fun Q&A session as I take questions from the fans about my music, family and more!

Nineteen percent of engagements happen during the holiday season. However, twenty percent of divorces begin January 1st. It's obvious that the world's way of marriage is not working, but luckily in this sermon, Pastor Byron Ellis gives us the bible's guide to a blessed marriage. The bible's sacred view of marriage requires submission and sacrifice. By following a biblical view, you can have a Hallmark romance this Christmas.
