The Rescuers Today, Pastor Michael is talking about rescue. If you are a Christian, a follower of Christ, then you have been rescued. And Jesus is sending you to rescue others! The rescued become rescuers is our theme for the day. We can summarize the mission of the Great Commission in four words: Go—intentionally where people are. Intentionally connect with people. Reach—share Jesus with people in a way that they can relate to and respond. Baptize—not just getting them wet, but making them a part of the community of believers. Teach—disciple them. We cannot ever lose sight of this mission! We must refuse to be inwardly-focused. We must become “rescuers.” Steps to Rescue Pray for the Lord to open your heart to someone who needs Jesus and His hope and light. Be aware of your opportunities with that person. God has thrown someone a lifeline, and that rescuer is YOU! Today's verses are found in Matthew 28: 18-20.

A Safe Place to Be Real Today, Pastor Michael is talking about things that cut us deep. Mistakes and regrets that we have made. Wounds that can poison us. The only way to help in this is to have a safe place to be real. Recreate Church is exactly that…a safe place to be real. The safest place to be real is in a church family. Today's central idea, “In a community of life and love, nobody struggles alone!” We all need someone we can trust, to help us out of the pits of life. (CSB Bible Notes) 5:16 Pray for one another echoes the prayers of the elders, and these should lead to both physical and spiritual healing (i.e., forgiveness). Prayer is not a magical incantation or a guarantee of healing, but when offered fervently by a righteous person, God will respond in a way that best fits his good purposes. Today's verses are found in James 5: 16. Scripture quotations marked CSB have been taken from the Christian Standard Bible®, Copyright © 2017 by Holman Bible Publishers. Used by permission.

Simplicity of Faith Today, Pastor Michael discusses the gospel and its purity, not needing rules and attachments to its core. The gospel isn't complicated. There is joy in the simplicity of the gospel message, so don't complicate what Jesus made simple. Michael then gives us examples that churches and Christians complicate the message to confound potentially new believers: Expecting people to clean up before they meet Jesus. Be patient with folks and allow them to grow! Expecting people to be doctrinal pros from the get-go. Making an idol out of our preferences and traditions. Forgetting that not everybody's an insider. (CSB Bible Notes) 15:19 James's position as the first among equals in the Jerusalem church is seen in his summarizing conclusion to the debate. In his judgment, Jewish believers should not cause difficulties for those turning to God from among the Gentiles.

A Community of Life and Love Today, Pastor Michael is discussing how some folks have dismissed church due to not finding a church that serves them well. At Recreate we are doing just what our name impies; redefining our church to serve people. Church done right is a community of life and love! (CSB Bible Notes) 2:42 These four practices—teaching . . . fellowship, the breaking of bread, and prayer—provide insight into the priorities of early Christianity. These same practices should be considered normative for the church today. Today's verses are found in Acts 2: 40 - 47.

The Resurrection on Trial Today, Pastor Michael is discussing the Resurrection and Easter. Michael reinforces the case of the resurrection. Did Jesus really rise from the dead? The answer is all-important: if the resurrection didn't happen, then Christianity's claims all fall apart. Paul covers this in 1 Corinthians 15. 14 If it did, death has been defeated. If Jesus walked out of the grave, you cannot walk away unchanged. Michael, Duncan, and David present a current version of a trial, with the defense showing Jesus is real and the other side showing it was a ruse. The defense trumps the trial with eyewitness accounts of Jesus' crucifixion, John 19: 33-34, heralding the efficiency of Roman executioners. Additional proof for the defense is that no single disciple recanted their belief in the Lord, even though most died suffering for the truth. The final proof of Jesus's resurrection is that people saw Him after He had risen. If it wasn't a miracle, it was absurd. Tacitus, a Roman historian who despised Christians, even confirmed Jesus's resurrection! This is the story of a tomb found to be empty. Many early Christians were horribly persecuted for their beliefs. And there were eyewitnesses, even enemies, who concluded: Jesus is risen! We don't need a comfortable lie but a disruptive truth! Live for Jesus! Today's verses are found in 1 Corinthians 15: 14 and John 19: 33-34.

What Nick and Joe Didn't Know Today, Pastor Michael is covering the second part of the Story of the Cross, the Burial. Remember, there are three parts to the Story of the Cross: Death Burial Resurrection Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus asked Pilote for Jesus's body so that they could bury it before it became dark, as was Jewish custom of the day and the Sabbath was about to start. Pilate gave them permission to do so and they wrapped Jesus in clean linen and placed him in a tomb, carved from the rock. Where earth sees a grave, heaven sees a garden!

Sacrifice and Salvation Today, Pastor Michael is on a mission for his next series: to help folks “get it” (the Story of the Cross) and, if you have it, to help others understand it. There are three (3) main parts of the Story of the Cross: The Death The Burial The Resurrection We're starting with the heavy one today, the death. When Jesus died, His followers thought it was over: His Message and His Life. But so much was soon about to unfold! Today, we're observing the Lord's Supper, and Pastor Michael is explaining the mechanics behind this tradition. Be a believer and ensure you're right with God, meaning if you have things between you and the Lord that need to be dealt with, deal with them and have an open and honest heart. The core idea for today: No Sacrifice, No Salvation. Today's verses are from 1 Corinthians 15: 3-4, Exodus 12: 29-30, Hebrews 9: 22, Hebrews 9: 26-28, 1 Corinthians 5: 7 and 1 Corinthians 11: 23-28.

The Most Misunderstood Promise in The Bible, Part 2 Today, Pastor Michael is continuing our theme of studying one of the most famous quotes in the Bible, a quote used anytime one needs encouragement, that promise found in Jeremiah 29: 11. Things God Wants for You (God's Plans for You!): Salvation, John 3: 16, John 4: 14. Fellowship, John 15: 5. Obedience, John 14: 15. Holiness, Romans 12: 1-2. Discipleship, Matthew 28: 19-20. Good works, Ephesians 2: 10. Progress, 2 Peter 3: 18. Our theme for today is, “Walk with God and the rest will follow.” (CSB Bible Notes) Many a faithful believer has found comfort in these words of hope. Today's verse can be found in Jeremiah 29: 11.

The Most Misunderstood Promise in The Bible Today, Pastor Michael is drilling down on the lore of Jeremiah, specifically verse 29 and the promise the Lord gave in it. When life breaks down, God builds up, our central theme today. We must continuously look past our current situations beyond the anxiety and hopelessness that can easily consume us and instead focus on the figurative light at the end of the tunnel. This light represents the hope found in God's Word. That hope, a firm assurance, will always help guide us through. Real-life applications from today's lesson: Recognize consequences. Accept reality. Make a difference where you are. Trust God's timing. Believe in God's plans. Seek God with all your heart. Restoration is coming. Today's verses can be found in Jer 29: 11 (central verse) and Jeremiah 29: 4 - 14 (supporting verses) Scripture quotations marked CSB have been taken from the Christian Standard Bible®, Copyright © 2017 by Holman Bible Publishers.

Jonah and The Worm Today, Pastor Michael is back in Jonah and NOT talking about Jonah and the whale. Today's story is the highly anticipated, the much heralded, the AMAZING story of Jonah and the WORM! We pick up the story at Nineveh, where Jonah has warned them to turn from their evil ways. Which they did! And God spared them for doing so! But, Jonah isn't happy about that, one bit! In essence, Jonah is angry because God was being Himself, behaving consistently. Jonah was angry because God didn't do things Jonah's way. At this point, Jonah is literally ready to die. So, in His infinite compassion, the Lord even made a plant to cover Jonah's head to shield him from the sun. Even then Jonah was still angry so the Lord had a worm eat the plant, and Jonah was even madder. The Lord at this point, told Jonah, (CSB) “You cared about the plant, which you did not labor over and did not grow. It appeared in a night and perished in a night. 11 So may I not care about the great city of Nineveh, which has more than a hundred twenty thousand people who cannot distinguish between their right and their left, as well as many animals? ” God wasn't looking for a way to destroy Nineveh, he was looking for a way to SAVE it! The heart of our message is “God is God and I am NOT!” (CSB Bible Notes) 4:1-2 The unexpected and overwhelming success of Jonah's preaching resulted in Nineveh's escape from calamity. However, this brought emotional calamity to the angry and self-pitying prophet, who wished he were dead. Jonah had initially fled from preaching to Nineveh because he feared that God, being excessively gracious and compassionate (see Ex 34:6-7), would find some lame excuse to forgive these pagan, warlike Gentiles. Now his fears had come true. Today's verses can be found in Jonah 4: 1-11.

Every Day is a Second Chance Today, Pastor Michael is continuing the story of Jonah, a man just bent on not doing the will of God. We pick up the story with Jonah, having been spat out of the fish/whale, being confronted with God's forgiveness. A second chance is given him, even though he's not quite on board. And he does go to Nineveh and speaks to the king. They do what Jonah tells them, notably fasting, dressing in sackclothes and sitting in ashes (hey, it was the ancient world!) and God sees this and does not destroy the city. So, not only does Jonah get a second chance, Nineveh does as well! (CSB Bible Notes) 3:1-3 Jonah went to Nineveh as God had commanded. Extremely great city (lit “a great city to God”; see textual footnote) may have a double meaning: great in size (where “God,” Hb elohim, is used as a superlative for “extremely”) and a city “important to God” even though inhabited by Gentiles.

Jonah and Jesus Today, Pastor Michael is continuing the story of Jonah and his continual running from God, notably because he did not agree with a decision made by the Lord to warn the city of Nineveh's citizens of immenent destruction. Jonah did not like God showing mercy to the Ninevites, so he was trying to get as far away from the situation as he could! Big problem, though. You cannot run away from the creator of the universe! At this point in the story, Jonah is in the belly of a whale (fish in those days) due to him being cast into the sea by sailors who wanted to appease God for Jonah running from Him. So Jonah is praying fervently to God from the belly of the whale, obviously knowing God called the storm and the fish, as part of a plan to show Jonah, you can't run from God. And Jonah heartily repented in prayer and the Lord made the whale spit Jonah out to dry land. Today's take away is, “Swallowed by sin, set free by the Savior.” Today's verses can be found in Jonah 1: 17 - 2: 10.

Salvation is in the Storm Today, Pastor Michael is back with Jonah, the prophet who 'never got it'. The last time we saw Jonah, he was on a ship bound for Tarshish. He was essentially in denial of God's leadership, and he was running from God. The ship encountered a huge storm that the Lord clearly sent for Jonah's disobedience. This storm saved Jonah from destruction; in fact, many things we think of as storms are ‘path corrections' by the Lord. So the ship was in this huge storm, and Jonah crashed out below decks; he was so tired. The ship's captain asked Jonah to pray to his God to help them in the storm. The captain and the pagan sailors recognized that Jonah was running from his God and that bad things were happening to them because of his disobedience. Jonah offered to the sailors that they could throw him into the sea. Jonah, however, was flawed in his understanding; Jonah risked his life for the sailors but not for the city that the Lord told him to go and help save. Jonah didn't show much mercy, but the pagan sailors did. The sailors did throw Jonah into the sea, at which time he was promptly swallowed by a whale! Even getting swallowed by a whale was an act of God's mercy! Today's verses can be found in Jonah 1: 4-17.

Mercy Has No Margins Today, Pastor Michael is in Jonah, talking about how today's theme, “Mercy Has No Margins” really shows how God's people can miss God's purpose. The Lord had sent Jonah to Nineveh to warn them that their pagan ways would be held accountable for that evil. Yet Jonah refused the call and tried to run from the Lord. He boards a ship, with pagan sailors, at Tarshish, about as far in an opposite direction from Nineveh as he could get. Jonah was fleeing, not because he didn't believe or didn't want to be called, but because he didn't believe in the call. He didn't feel it far for the pagans or Gentiles to be on God's team. And for the Lord to warn pagans of their evil did NOT go over well with Mr. Jonah. He misunderstood God's mercy. He felt good people should get mercy and the bad people should not get mercy. Jonah (and us!) have to see everyone as a soul that God loves. (CSB Bible Notes) God's holiness is offended by sin. He showed himself to be the judge of the world by holding these distant pagans accountable for their evil, though he also showed his mercy by commanding his prophet to warn them. Today's verses can be found in Jonah 1: 1-3. Scripture quotations marked CSB have been taken from the Christian Standard Bible®, Copyright © 2017 by Holman Bible Publishers. Used by permission.

Can't Save Yourself. Today, Pastor Michael is continuing last week's theme on salvation, and we continue with our previous week's essential list: Everyone needs to be saved.You cannot save yourself. God sent the one and only savior, Jesus Christ, to save us. Pastor Michael picks up the story about 15 years after the Resurrection. Paul and Silas set out on a mission to start new communities of believers. Jerusalem and Antioch were two of the leading Christian areas at the time. During this trip, they enlisted Timothy as part of their troupe, and Luke may have also joined them. So they headed west to Troas, and Paul had a vision, a waking one. In this vision, he sees a man calling him from across the water, asking them to come to Macedonia to help them. So, the gang headed out, from Troas to Neopolis to Philipi, in Macedonia. Paul was preaching there when Lydia approached them and offered them shelter in her home. Soon after they stayed with Lydia, they were out preaching again, and a slave approached them, having an ability to predict the future and screaming, “These are servants of the highest God!” That sounds good because it was correct, but it was an evil spirit that gave her the ability to predict the future and shout what she did. But she followed them for days, continuing to shout this out. Finally, Paul turned around and commanded the evil spirit to come out of the girl. The spirit immediately left her, and she was fine! Now, at this point, everyone is happy except the men who enslaved the girl to make money with her talents. They dragged Paul and Silas back into the city, in the middle of a marketplace, and stirred up an angry mob. Paul and Silas are dragged to prison after suffering a good smackdown, courtesy of the crowd. They prayed and sang praises to God in prison, and other prisoners and the jailer are listening. Then, an earthquake shook pretty much everything, and the jailer panicked. He understood that everyone would get away, and under Roman law, if a prisoner escaped, the guard could get the prisoner's sentence. So he was pretty freaked out! He draws his sword and places it against his chest to kill himself, and a shout tells him to STOP. It's Paul. Paul told him “Believe in Jesus, and you will be saved.” Roman guard, Jesus's love. The perfect example of how salvation works. (CSB Bible Notes) 16:28 We are not told how Paul knew what the jailer was about to do. There may have been just enough light, Paul may have had prophetic insight, or he may have heard enough to surmise what was about to happen. 16:29-30 The jailer fell down trembling because he realized the earthquake was supernatural. This prompted him to ask the most important question in the book of Acts: What must I do to be saved? He was spared from death in the quake, spared from suicide by the discovery that the prisoners had not fled, and now wanted to be spared from God's future judgment. Today's verses can be found in Acts 15:39 - 16:40. Scripture quotations marked CSB have been taken from the Christian Standard Bible®, Copyright © 2017 by Holman Bible Publishers. Used by permission.

Only the Lost Get Found Today, Pastor Michael is discussing salvation and our situation in the present age. Along those lines, Pastor Michael reminds us of three things, all hugely important: Everyone needs to be saved. You cannot save yourself. God sent a savior in Jesus. In today's lesson, Michael will drill down on the first item: everyone needs to be saved. We pick up the story back in Jesus' time, with communities springing up along the Mediterranean of followers of Jesus. There were also missionaries, and likely, the most famous of them was Paul. Paul was on his way to Damascus, and at that time, he wasn't on the side of Jesus, but after a chance encounter with Jesus, he became a strong believer and missionary. Paul and Silas, to continue the story, were on their way to Phillipi, a Greek territory. They found people hungry for Jesus and the message. But they encountered a lady, displayed as a sideshow. Paul and Silas prayed for this lady and an evil spirit in her departed. The two men who ran the lady's sideshow were unhappy that their show had been effectively canceled and started a riot! Yep, weird indeed! Paul and Silas were apparently complicit in all of this, and they were beaten and thrown into prison. Paul and Silas were in prison, praying, and the prisoners overhead them. When the story couldn't get any crazier, along comes an earthquake. Yep, you read that correctly: an earthquake! This earthquake effectively freed all the prisoners, forcing all the doors to open and freaking out the prison warden. It freaked him out because, in Rome, the guards would have to serve the sentence of any escaping prisoner. Paul called out to him to not worry and the warden fell down, exclaiming, “What must I do to be saved?” To be saved, you must be saved from SOMETHING. What must you be saved from? The consequences of our actions. In other words, the consequences of sin. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved. The story of salvation is not about you or what you have done: it is about what Jesus has done! (CSB Bible Notes) 16:29-30 The jailer fell down trembling because he realized the earthquake was supernatural. This prompted him to ask the most important question in the book of Acts: What must I do to be saved? He was spared from death in the quake, spared from suicide by the discovery that the prisoners had not fled, and now wanted to be spared from God's future judgment.

A Wonderful Message on Bible Study. Today, Pastor Michael is turning over the reigns to David Boudreaux, one of our church elders. Today, David wants us to read God's Word and spend as much time in His Word as we can. The Word of God is the Law of God, the very breath of God. God didn't give us just a short study on life; He gave us a detailed guide to follow in His Word, and David will be spending most of today's message in the Old Testament, specifically in Joshua. This wonderful teaching that David brings today is an exercise in how, as Christians, we need to be in the Word, always. David gives many excellent tips on how to read the bible and apply it to study and your life. This message is a proper foundation for reading the Bible, given by a seasoned pro who has spent considerable time in the Word and is a fantastic reference for new Christians as well as mature ones. Review the verses section below; David has gone to great lengths to give us verses that apply to today's message. (CSB Bible Notes) 1:8 Two more references to the instruction affirm the key importance of God's revelation. Study and learning of it are to form so much a part of one's life that the words are fully obeyed as in Dt 6:6-9. The stylistic frame of God's promised presence in Jos 1:5,9 indicates that Joshua's success will come because God is with him, enabling him to read and observe God's Word (Eph 2:8-10). Today's verses can be found in John 1: 1-2, Psalms 1: 1-2, Joshua 1: 7-8, Deuteronomy 17, Romans 3: 23, John 6: 44, Ezra 7: 9-10, Hebrews 10: 24-25, 2 Timothy 2: 15, 2 Timothy 3: 16-17, Matthew 28: 20, Proverbs 27: 17, Joshua 3:15, Joshua 23:6, Joshua 24: 15, Revelations 3: 20, Joshua 1: 8, and Jeremiah 33: 3.

Not This Year! Today, Pastor Michael is comparing our physical and spiritual health, which is very timely given how many are trying to start the New Year on a new foot. Some ways we can encourage spiritual health are: Start every day with prayer. Engage with the word of God every day. You can add other items, such as writing down things you are grateful for, scripture memorization, serving people while avoiding recognition, and more. Let's start with spiritual junk food. Spiritual junk food is the empty distractions and missed beliefs that starve our souls. Anything that fills your hours without filling your soul is an easy way to remember what we shouldn't be doing! Today, our lesson finds us in Ephesus; Paul is speaking to the Ephesians about striving to become what they should / could be as followers of Christ. And he's preaching precisely what we just said: if you've been set free in Jesus, don't go back to the spiritual junk food! What would that be today (spiritual junk food)? Entertainment and media! They are far more addictive than we think, and we could go down so many rabbit holes here. We can, however, quickly state areas that, at the start of this new year, are things we ‘should' do: This year, we will worship in a way that is not just emotion. This year, we will trust that God loves us, even when we're having a bad day. This year, we will know we are blessed, even when our bank account doesn't know it. This year, we will move beyond the idea that righteousness is all about rule-following. This year, we will refuse to confuse tradition with truth. This year, we will choose spiritual intimacy over religious busyness. This year, let's move beyond social media spirituality. This year, let's move beyond spirituality. That's all talk. If you say that you're saved, live like it. This is your year to live differently! This year, let's let go of shallow beliefs. Three actions steps this year: Examine your diet (media). Is it feeding your soul? Replace the junk with truth. Focus on forever. (CSB Bible Notes) 4:17-19 This section of the letter provides the practical outworking of v. 1. Paul's exhortations denounced the readers' former way of life. The content of the exhortation parallels early Christian baptismal practices of putting off old clothes before putting on new clothes to enter the baptismal water. Today's verses can be found in Ephesians 4: 17-18. Scripture quotations marked CSB have been taken from the Christian Standard Bible®, Copyright © 2017 by Holman Bible Publishers. Used by permission.

If Jesus Said It, We Can Trust It. Today, Pastor Michael is giving us a lesson remotely, as the snow and ice forced us not to hold a service at the church. Today's lesson is about faith. Jesus expressed sorrow that His followers didn't have great faith. But Jesus did have a believer who trusted Him in His word. Here, Jesus had just finished a powerful message, returning to Capernaum. A delegation of Jewish elders came out to meet Jesus, asking Him to help a Roman Centurion. This Centurion had a servant who was sick. The Centurion had heard about Jesus and his miracles, so he asked the Jewish elders to ask Jesus for help. Jesus agreed to see the Centurion's servant, and when He got there, another group of folks came out to meet Him. The Centurion knew Jesus only had to say the word, and his servant would be healed. This Centurion did not even feel worthy of Jesus coming to him, but he knew Jesus had the authority to heal. He knew the authority Jesus had and recognized Jesus as the Messiah. This Centurion even had more faith than many followers of Jesus did at the time! Jesus marveled at the Centurion, telling the crowd He had not seen such great faith, even in Israel. And the servant was healed! The Centurion saw the truth in Jesus that even Jesus's followers did not see. “If Jesus said it, we can trust it” is our central theme today. Full Authority In Those Hands = FAITH. (CSB Bible Notes) 7:2-3 A centurion was a commander of a hundred men in the Roman army. This centurion was apparently a compassionate man, deeply concerned about the illness of his servant. He reached out to Jesus through some local Jewish elders (either recognized leaders in the community or respected older men). In the parallel passage in Mt 8:5-10, the centurion approached Jesus directly. Today's verses can be found in Luke 7: 1-10.

Get to the Root Today, Pastor Michael is showing us, we have a champion in Jesus! A champion that wants you to thrive, in 2025! In a story found in Luke, we find a man that planted a fig tree. This tree, for over three years did not produce fruit. So, the owner of the orchard told his gardener to cut the tree down. But the gardener convinced him, to let him nurture the tree and see if they could get some fruit. The gardener will work the tree, dig down to the roots, fertilize it and see if the tree will blossom. If you want to get the fruit, you've got to start at the roots! Here, the fig tree is actually symbolic of Israel and God the Father is the owner of the orchard. Three years, which is important. How many years did Jesus's earthly ministry last? About three years. But Israel, even with the messiah amongst them, they still didn't ‘get it.' God wanted to help change Israel, but they wouldn't let Him get to the ‘root of the problem.' The message is to encourage you to believe in Jesus. He is the gardener in this story and will help you, IF you are willing to embrace Jesus in your life. You will see the fruit, if you let Jesus get down to the roots! Today's verses can be found in Luke 13: 6-9.

The Context of White Supremacy continues our lengthy "holiday " tradition of broadcasting on White Jesus' birthday. With Gus just back from California and still in the midst of cataloging and receiving constructive material from numerous White institutions, we pause to revisit audio of Dr. Frances Cress Welsing. 3rd generation general and child psychiatrist Dr. Welsing had a signature public exchange with Stanford University's Nobel Prize winning scholar and Race Solider Dr. William Shockley - who was renown for his views on the intellectual deficits of people classified as black. Gus T. thought these two scholars had one public debate on journalist Tony Brown's platform. This is false. Dr. Welsing and Dr. Shockley had a number of exchanges, and Stanford University has Shockley's personal recordings of several of these exchanges. Gus T. was able to get digital copies of everything, and will share a teaspoon from their 1973 joust. Gus will also disclose why he is not sharing the full audio. In short, non-white people - especially those interested in counter-racism, do not associate or support Gus T.

Courage in the Chaos. Today, Pastor Michael discusses how “Faith finds courage in the chaos,” our central theme. We start at a place that is typically after most Christmas stories. It's the story of a tyrant trying to find the baby Jesus, and the Magi are at the center of it again. The Magi made their visit and gave their gifts, and this is where most Christmas stories end. But we're going to dig a little deeper today. The Magi had dreams of an angel speaking to them, warning them not to return to Jerusalem. They followed the angel's advice and returned to their lands without stopping in and saying hello to Herod. Herod was a bit ticked, to put it mildly, ordering his soldiers to Bethlehem to break down and search all homes and kill all male children under 2 years old. Joseph had a dream where an angel spoke to him, telling him to hightail it to Egypt. That very night, Joseph packed up his family and fled. They stayed in Egypt until Herod died. Yet again, an angel appeared in a dream to Joseph, telling him to return to Israel, specifically Nazareth. But Joseph had placed his faith in the Lord, and we shall soon see Jesus's earthly ministry start. Today's verses can be found in Matthew 2: 11 - 23.

The Shepherds Today, Pastor Michael is talking about the birth of Jesus. Here, he's talking about the shepherds. Farm kids growing up in the country. The shepherd's story shows us that God doesn't see value like people. God chooses those who are overlooked. In those days, it was hard for shepherds to participate in Jewish customs and rituals due to them being ceremonially unclean. But the announcement of the birth of Jesus came to shepherds! Just to the north of Bethlehem is Migdal Eder, “Tower of the Flock,” where a special group of shepherds raised the temple flock of sacrificial lambs. Most likely, these shepherds were the shepherds in the Christmas story. The shepherds remind us what Jesus' birth was all about. It's the story of God sending his son to give his life so we can live. (CSB Bible Notes) Though the social position of shepherds was lowly, the role is often viewed positively in the Bible. God is pictured as a shepherd (Gn 49:24; Ps 23:1). King David was the shepherd of God's people (2Sm 5:2). Jesus called himself “the good shepherd” (Jn 10:11). Today's verses can be found in Luke 2: 8-20.

Three Christmas Gifts Today, Pastor Michael is continuing the story of the Three Wise Men. At this point in the story, they have found Jesus and begun worshiping him. He is no longer at the stable where he was born, the Wise Men finding him in a house. They came with gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Gold is a tribute paid to kings. It represents royalty. The gift of gold is the promise of a great king. Frankincense is a resin that comes from a rare tree in the Middle East. The gift of frankincense points to Jesus as a priest. Lastly, myrrh is another resin primarily used in funerals to anoint bodies. Myrrh represents the gift of Jesus as savior. Jesus is gold, our frankincense, and the gift of myrrh, the gifts of the Magi. They remind us that “Jesus is the king who leads us, the priest who connects us to God and the savior who gave his life for us”; the heart of today's message. Today's verses can be found in Matthew 2: 11. Scripture quotations marked CSB have been taken from the Christian Standard Bible®, Copyright © 2017 by Holman Bible Publishers. Used by permission.

Peace for the Restless Heart Today, Pastor Michael is looking at the Three Wise Men looking for Jesus at His birth. The wise men, the magi, were coming from Persia. They arrive in Jerusalem, asking where is the King of the Jews that was just born. However, the message had not spread at this point, so most simply didn't know. They followed the star to Bethlehem and found Jesus and worshipped Him. What did the Magi need that they didn't have? Peace. After years of studying and research, they found the peace they needed in Jesus. Today's core idea is “Restless Hearts Find Peace in Jesus”. (CSB Bible Notes) In contrast to the stable in which Jesus was born (Lk 2), Jesus's family now lived in a house. This shows that the magi visited Jesus after the visit of the shepherds described by Luke. The magi worshiped Jesus openly, as did many other people during his lifetime (8:2; 9:18; 14:33; 15:25; 20:20; 28:9,17). Jesus's reception of worship reinforces his identity as Immanuel, “God is with us” Today's verses can be found in Matthew 2: 1 - 12.

Grateful for the Gravy. Today, Pastor Michael is returning to the Old Testament, in 2 Kings, about a lesson in the ministry of Elisha, the prophet. One day, he's going through Shunem, and a couple invited him to dinner. After one of many visits, the wife asked her husband to build a room for Elisha when he came through. Gahezi traveled with Elisa through Shunem, so Gahezi retrieved the woman from the house, and they asked her, “What can we do to repay you for your generosity?” The woman wanted nothing, but Gahezi reminded Elisha that she had no children. So, Elisha prophesied to her that she would bear a son, and she did! That son was in the fields with his father and collapsed, dying. So the woman went to Elisha and told him the story, so Elisha went back to their house and found the child dead. Elisha went to the child and prayed to God over the boy, and the boy came to life! Later, the Lord told Elisha that a famine would come, so Elisha told the woman of this and that she needed to leave the country. She left the country and lived with the Philistines for seven years. Finally, it was time to come back. But while they were gone, strangers had moved into their house and taken over. She took her cause up with the king, and Gehazi was visiting with the king when she was there! And Gehazi talked about numerous miracles, concerning Elisha's ministry. The woman relayed that the stories Gehazi told were true and that she and her son were the recipients of some of the miracles. The king was impressed enough to restore her home and lands. Had she not experienced the tragedy years before, she would not have experienced the triumph later! (CSB Bible Notes) The next episode introduced a flashback seven years earlier when Elisha advised the Shunammite woman to sojourn outside Israel during a famine (8:1–2). Because she now has to reclaim her land from the king, one wonders if the king somehow appropriated the land in her absence (8:3). There is a miracle of timing: at the very moment, the king is asking Gehazi about Elisha's mighty deeds, the woman shows up with her son! Today's verses can be found in 2 Kings 4: 8-37 and 2 Kings 8: 1-6. Scripture quotations marked CSB have been taken from the Christian Standard Bible®, Copyright © 2017 by Holman Bible Publishers.

Gratitude Defeats Grump! Today, Pastor Michael is talking about gratitude and thankfulness. Paul wrote a letter to the Thessalonians about thanks. It has one of the most famous lines in the bible, “…give thanks in everything…” Michael asks the pertinent question, “Do we really worship God, or do we worship the idea that God owes us an easy life?” Gratitude isn't something God doesn't have; it's good for US! “It's not happy people who are thankful; it's thankful people who are happy” is today's takeaway thought. (CSB Bible Notes) The third exhortation of this trilogy (5:18a) is a call, not to give thanks for every situation, but rather to give thanks in every situation. The Christian affirms that God can use any situation for his or her own good (Rm 8:28) and that one can triumph in the midst of any circumstance, even adversity (Rm 8:31–39). Today's verses can be found in 1 Thessalonians 5: 18. Scripture quotations marked CSB have been taken from the Christian Standard Bible®, Copyright © 2017 by Holman Bible Publishers.
