Friends of the Rosary,Today, before the Holy Week begins, the Catholic Church in various countries, following the Roman Rite, observes the devotion of Friday of Sorrows, or ‘Passion Friday', Viernes de Dolores in Spanish.Spanish-speaking countries, and particularly the Philippines, hold processions on this day to honor the Seven Sorrows of Mary.Currently, the feast of Our Lady of Sorrows is paired with the feast of the Exaltation of the Cross in September. The general liturgical calendar lists September 15 as the feast of Our Lady of Sorrows.We reflect upon the Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary in contemplating the Passion of Christ. We journey with Mary as she remains with her Son amid agonies and pains. We also pray for those who are going through their own sorrows and trials.These are the Seven Sorrows of Mary:The Prophecy of Simeon (Luke 2:34-35)The Flight into Egypt (Matthew 2:13)The Loss of the Child Jesus in the Temple of Jerusalem (Luke 2:43-45)The Meeting of Mary and Jesus on his Way to Calvary (traditional)Standing at the Foot of the Cross (John 19:25)Jesus Being Taken Down from the Cross (Matthew 27:57-59)The Burial of Jesus (John 19:40-42)We pray today's Rosary from Las Vegas.Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.

A man named Simeon meets the 40-day old Jesus in the temple and is inspired by the Holy Spirit to understand that this was the long expected Messiah
Advent 2023 God With Us Week 5 - The Song of Simeon Luke 2:21-35 Christ Church Kingwood December 31, 2023 Preacher: Cary Apel
On Christmas Eve a choir of angels sang, “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” So, where is this peace on earth? Between nations? There are always wars going on somewhere. In our country Disagreements have only grown more contentious, one group screaming angrily at another group. We might not even have perfect peace in our homes! So, what were the angels singing about? They were singing about peace between a holy God who hates sin and human beings who sin every day. Because of what Christ did as our Savior, there is no hostility between us and God, only peace and love. We have the peace of salvation in our hearts. As we draw near the end of life, like elderly Simeon or Anna, we have the peace of knowing of the glorious eternal life that is to come. As this peace with God fills our hearts, it moves us to live in peace with each other too.

Pastor Jason shares his message, Anna & Simeon, related to Luke 2:22-40.
This past month, I preached on the names of the Messiah. Immanuel. Wonderfulcounselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. The Servant of theLord. Tonight, I thought that the most fitting way to end this series was to focus onthe true name of the Messiah, Jesus. Jesus is not just any name, but has deepmeaning for us and for this world. Let's read again Matthew 1:18-25:Matthew 1:18-25 - This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His motherMary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she wasfound to be with child through the Holy Spirit. 19 Because Joseph her husband wasa righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mindto divorce her quietly. 20 But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lordappeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph son of David, do not be afraid totake Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the HolySpirit. 21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus,because he will save his people from their sins." 22 All this took place to fulfillwhat the Lord had said through the prophet: 23 "The virgin will be with child andwill give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel"--which means, "God withus." 24 When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commandedhim and took Mary home as his wife. 25 But he had no union with her until shegave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus.Jesus is the Hebrew name Yeshua, which means salvation, or “The Lord saves.” InGreek, Yeshua is translated Iesous, from where we get the name Jesus.Psalm 14:7 - Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!Zechariah - Luke 1:76-77 - And you, my child, will be called a prophet of theMost High; for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him, 77 togive his people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins,Simeon - Luke 2:30-32 - For my eyes have seen your salvation, 31 which youhave prepared in the sight of all people, 32 a light for revelation to the Gentiles andfor glory to your people Israel."He will save the people from their sins. That is the main need. That is His purpose.

The Best Gift EverGus AgostinoDecember 10, 2023SERMON NOTES:2 goals1. If you have not received this gift, DON'T MISS IT!2. If you already have received this gift I hope you will better appreciate it and fully experience it as you are reminded of how great it is.What makes a gift great?● The value of a gift is not so much determined by the cost of the gift but by the thoughtfulness and sacrifice of the giver.● The more personal thought and attention also adds to the value of that gift.● A true gift is always given without any expectation.● One of the best things about a gift is the anticipation of a gift.The Gift of God was ordered before time began!● 2 Timothy 1:8 Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God, 9 who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began,● 1 John 4:10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.The Gift was shipped from heaven to earth when Jesus was found in the womb of Mary! (Matthew 1:18-21)Why did he come?● To save us from ourselves (John 3:16-18)Jesus was not a creation of God, He is God in flesh● JOHN 1: 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.The gift is tracked in the life of Christ!Jesus meet Moses “The Law” He was born under the law to fulfill the law (Luke 2:21-24)● Matthew 5:17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them”● Galations 4:4-5 But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, 5 to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship.Jesus meets Simeon (Luke 2:25-35)Jesus meets Anna (Luke 2:36-38)● 36 There was also a prophet, Anna, the daughter of Penuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was very old; she had lived with her husband seven years after her marriage, 37 and then was a widow until she was eighty-four.[e] She never left the temple but worshiped night and day, fasting and praying. 38 Coming up to them at that very moment, she gave thanks to God and spoke about the child to all who were looking forward to the redemption of Jerusalem.Philippians 1:6being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.Oasis Church exists to help people see Jesus more clearly.We are led by Pastor Nate Clarke and are located in Richmond, VA.STAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/oasischurchva/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OasisChurchRVA/Website: https://oasischurch.onlineOasis Church exists to help people see Jesus more clearly.We are led by Pastor Nate Clarke and are located in Richmond, VA.Stay Connected:Website: https://oasischurch.online Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oasischurchva/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OasisChurchRVA/

How God Speaks to us Does God speak? Old Testament:Adam and Eve (Genesis 3:9-19).Noah (Genesis 6:13-22).Abraham (Genesis 12:1-3)Sarah (Genesis 18:9-15).Moses (Exodus 3:1-10) Aaron (Exodus 28:1-3).Miriam (Numbers 12:1-15)Joshua (Joshua 1:1-9)Samuel (1 Samuel 3:1-18)David (2 Samuel 12:1-15)Solomon (1 Kings 3:5-14).Isaiah (Isaiah 6:1-13).Jeremiah (Jeremiah 1:4-10).Ezekiel (Ezekiel 1:1-3).Daniel (Daniel 7:1-28).Elijah (1 Kings).Jonah (Jonah 1:1-2).New Testament:Mary (Luke 1:26-38).Joseph (Matthew 1:20-24; Matthew 2:13-15).Zacharias (Luke 1:5-25).Elizabeth (Luke 1:39-45).The Shepherds (Luke 2:8-20).The Wise Men (Matthew 2:12).Simeon (Luke 2:25-35).Paul (Acts 9:1-19) Does God still speak today? Yes and No. If you hear God, you might not be crazy.96% of evangelicals talk to God, 45% believe God talks to them.Do you hear His voice? There is no formula. Hebrews 1:1-4 Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. 3 He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 4 having become as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs. How does God speak? Prayer Acts 12:12-17 When he realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose other name was Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying. 13 And when he knocked at the door of the gateway, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer. 14 Recognizing Peter's voice, in her joy she did not open the gate but ran in and reported that Peter was standing at the gate. 15 They said to her, “You are out of your mind.” But she kept insisting that it was so, and they kept saying, “It is his angel!” 16 But Peter continued knocking, and when they opened, they saw him and were amazed. 17 But motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he described to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, “Tell these things to James and to the brothers.” Then he departed and went to another place. Mother Teresa (1910-1997 CE)"God speaks in the silence of the heart. Listening is the beginning of prayer."Scripture 2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. Spiritual Leaders and Communities2 Peter 1:19-21 And we have the prophetic word more fully confirmed, to which you will do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts, 20 knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture comes from someone's own interpretation. 21 For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit. Morning Star - “Light Bringer” Phosphorous - illumines hearts “carried along” = pheromenoi. Luke used this word in referring to a sailing vessel carried along by the wind Nature and Creation Romans 1:19 For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.

In his infancy, Jesus spoke no words of wisdom, nor did he perform any miracles in the lives of others. Everything we know about the identity of this Child is provided by other witnesses. Join Dr. David Rhoades for the discovery of Simeon in Luke 2:21-35, the seventh of our “Witnesses to the Savior.”
How do you wait? Do you wait wondering IF God will act? Or do you wait wondering WHEN God will act? This week, Pastor Brynn joins us from Anchor Bay Church, and walks with us through Simeon's story of waiting with expectation, as we consider how we might stay connected to the promises of God in the midst of our waiting.

This sermon was recorded on January 2, 2022 and delivered by Pastor Bill DeJong at Blessings Christian Church in Hamilton, Ontario. It is part #5 of the "A Christmas Playlist" sermon series.
Larry High shares from scripture the humble, joyful response of Simeon to seeing Jesus Christ. We are encouraged to consider: do you know Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord? What do your main passions in life consist of? What are you looking for? And do you long for heaven?
Sermon from 26 December
Waiting for consolation, we look to God. "Now there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and this man was righteous and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel" (Luke 2:25). --- On this Christmas Eve 2021, we read Luke 2 together and celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, the consolation of Israel and the savior of the world.
Western thought and male leadership frequently dominate church spaces in the U.S., and this impacts how spiritual formation is typically taught. What if spiritual formation teachings were to be thoughtfully de-westernized? What if the voices of women had been uplifted historically in the Church? What difference does this make for moms of young children? Dr. Cindy Lee, a professor, preacher, author, and spiritual director with a PhD in Practical Theology and Spiritual Formation, unpacks these questions and more on today's episode. Cindy and Lisa also dive into the role of intergenerational community in motherhood, collective parenting, deeper meanings of spirituality and hospitality than what we may be used to, and what we learned from the scripture passage from Episode 8A about Anna and Simeon—spiritual grandparents of sorts—who meet Jesus as an 8-day-old baby.

[Comment: Month of Our Lady of Sorrows] Friends of the Rosary: The month of September is traditionally dedicated to Our Lady of Sorrows and the Seven Sorrows of the Virgin Mary, a devotion that dates back to the 12th century. In Spain, Mexico, and all across Latin America, faithful venerate "Nuestra Señora de los Dolores", Sorrowful Mother, in English. Specifically, the Memorial Day of "Our Lady of Sorrows" will be celebrated on September 15th, a week later than her birthday, on September 8th. The title "Our Lady of Sorrows" focuses on Mary's intense suffering during the passion and death of Jesus Christ. In her suffering as co-redemptrix, the Holy Mary reminds us of the evil of sin and shows us the way of repentance. The Seven Dolors, or Sorrows, refer to the seven swords that pierced the Heart of Mary: The prophecy of Simeon (Luke 2:25-35) The flight into Egypt (Matthew 2:13-15) Loss of the Child Jesus for three days (Luke 2:41-50) Mary meets Jesus on his way to Calvary (Luke 23:27-31; John 19:17) Crucifixion and Death of Jesus (John 19:25-30) The body of Jesus being taken from the Cross (Psalm 130; Luke 23:50-54; John 19:31-37) The burial of Jesus (Isaiah 53:8; Luke 23:50-56; John 19:38-42; Mark 15:40-47) Ave Maria!

[Comment: Spiritual Martyrdom] Friends of the Rosary: Today, on the fifth week of Lent, the Friday before Palm Sunday is the Friday of Sorrows or Viernes de Dolores. This devotion started in the 15th century and is specially celebrated in Italy, Latin America, Spain, and the Philippines. This feast is a remembrance of the sorrowful Blessed Virgin Mary, who suffered a spiritual martyrdom. It highlights the emotional pain that the Passion of Jesus Christ caused to the Blessed Virgin Mary, who is venerated under the title of Our Lady of Sorrows. During her earthly life, the Mother of God suffered seven sorrows: The Prophecy of Simeon (Luke 2:34-35) The Flight into Egypt (Matthew 2:13-21) The Loss of Jesus for Three Days (Luke 2:41-50) Meeting Jesus on his way to Calvary (John 19:17) Standing at the foot of the Cross (John 19:18-30) Jesus being taken from the Cross (John 19:39-40) Jesus Laid in the Tomb (John 19:39-42) Ave Maria!

The Forgotten People of Advent - Simeon | Luke 2: 22-35 | Rev. Rich Good
Simeon Luke 2 shows the true expression of what Christmas joy is all about. In a season where people are busy buying gifts, making the next meeting, meal, or appointment, very few have noticed the person of Jesus. In week one of Christmas Unwrapped we look at the insights that Simeon reveals. Luke 2:21-35 Discussion […] The post Christmas Unwrapped – Simeon appeared first on Navigation Church.
For Israel, the four centuries since Nehemiah's return to Jerusalem to rebuild the temple had been yet another season of humiliation by foreign powers, the disgraceful influx of pagan Greco-Roman culture, the tainting of their cherished Jewish culture giving rise to an increased nostalgia for the Golden Era of King David. The breaking in of God's Kingdom set in motion a whole string of radical, risky, no-turning-back commitments that continue in our day. From rural folk, to tradesmen, to the religious elite to the very head of the Roman government, Christmas disrupted everything firmly established, elating many, horrifying more, angering more still and had the audacity to ignore all efforts to stuff it back into the closet, into exile, into the tomb. Status quo be warned! A. Radical Christmas _________________________ 1. Isaiah 9:1-7 2. Malachi 3:1-5; 4:5,6 3. Isaiah 40:3-5 B. ‘Other' Radical Christmas __________________________ 1. Zechariah & ____________________________ & John – Luke 1:1-25, 57-80 2. Simeon – Luke 2:21-35 3. ________________________ – Luke 2:36-40 “It looked like God had forgotten them. No one was coming, it seemed. But then he came. You cannot judge God by your calendar. God may appear to be slow, but he never forgets his promises. He may seem to be working very slowly or even to be forgetting his promises, but when his promises come true (and they will come true), they always burst the banks of what you imagined. . . The Christmas message . . . doesn't say 'from the world a light has sprung,' but ‘upon the world a light has dawned.' It has come from outside. There is light outside of this world, and Jesus has come from it to save us.” from Hidden Christmas, Timothy Keller
From a sermon series for Advent titled Who's Missing from Your Nativity Scene , a sermon on the story of Simeon, found in the Gospel of Luke 2.22-35, preached by Rev. Howard Dudley at First Presbyterian Church of Dunn on the First Sunday of Advent, November 29, 2020.
The setting in which this story takes place is Joseph and Mary going to the temple to fulfil the requirements of the law. While they were in the temple, they come across a man named Simeon. Luke tells us that he was led by the Spirit (vs 27 “And he came by the Sprit”) to come to the temple that day, he then sees Jesus and takes Him in his arms vs 28 and blesses the Baby Jesus. By the way, we're not told whether or not he asks if he could hold the baby, only that he sees Jesus, recognizes who He was by revelation of the Holy Spirit and then takes Him in his arms. Other than this, we know next to nothing about this man, some have speculated that he was a priest. However, we do not find that in our text. We do not know this his age, there is a tradition that says he was 112 years old, but this tradition may not be reliable. Some, people think that he was an old man because of vs 29 when he says after seeing Jesus, “Lord now, let thy servant depart in peace”. But, again, Luke doesn't suggest this in our text. Luke does tell us something about his spiritual condition. Today, I want to draw your attention 3 things about this man Simeon 1. He was just and devout 2. he was expectant 3. He was blessed
Based on the Nunc Dimittis, or the Song of Simeon (Luke 2:29–32), used in many evening liturgies, including the Book of Common Prayer Lyrics: You now release and send your servants, Lord, to go in peace according to your Word. Having waited, we will act. Having listened, we will speak. Having seen the Christ at last, we now go in peace. Our eyes beheld your saving Light prepared and now revealed for nations everywhere. Having waited, we will act. Having listened, we will speak. Having seen the Christ at last, we now go in peace.
I’ve been dipping in and out of a book called “One heart, One voice” by Andrew Maries. Last time we explored worship in the Old Testament. This week we will focus on the New Testament. One significant difference between the New and Old Testament is is the lack of musical references in general in the early church. We see many more complete songs in the Old Testament (the songs of Moses, Exodus 15, Deuteronomy 32; Hannah’s song 1 Samuel 2:2-20; David's laments; the whole of the Psalms; the Song of Songs; the song of Hezekiah, Isaiah 38:10-11; the Lamentations of Jeremiah). Why might this be? It is unlikely to be a symptom of a lack of significance attributed to corporate worship in the new covenant. We will see evidence for this in a moment. It is likely to do with at least these two factors: Collective worship in the early church shows a trajectory of rapid development. Little appeared to be settled regarding how gatherings of Christians proceeded. As year followed year and decade followed decade, changes occurred. The church differed from Israel in many ways. Israel was a nation with an identifiable centralised location for worship which was modelled as the way to do things. The church had no such centralising geographical centre, nor one model for their developing corporate worship. These differences had some disadvantages, but they also allow for greater creativity and, one would hope, focus on the heart of Jesus-worship rather than the form. Having said that, we do have enough teaching and examples of corporate worship to learn something about how the early church viewed their corporate worship gatherings. The Old Testament overlap Examples: the Song of Mary (Luke 1:46-55); the son of Zechariah (Luke 1:68-79); the Song of Simeon (Luke 2:29-32). They have a ‘Jewish' flavour. Mary’s song looks very similar to Hannah’s song in 1 Samuel 2. The song of Zechariah focuses on God coming through on his prophecies. It also references Isaiah 9:2 and 59:8. The song of Simeon reminds the hearers that the baby in his hands is the fulfilment of a promise regarding the coming of the Messiah. The heaven and earth overlap Luke 2:13-14. We are given a glimpse of worship in the heavenlies. “A musician can always be excited by the thought that, of all earthly activities, music is the one that continues to glorify God for all eternity!” Page 27 New Testament singers Jesus was a singer, as were his disciples, Matthew 26:30, Mark 14:26. “This was probably the second part of the ‘Hallel' given in Psalms 115 to 118, traditionally sung at the end of the Passover meal.” Page 27 Perhaps most memorably of all, Paul and Silas respond to their imprisonment by singing hymns (Acts 16.25). The consequences? An earthquake, freedom and the baptism of a household! If that’s not a good recommendation for singing… Church singing It is clear that the church sang together from instructions given by Paul and James. “...I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my understanding. Otherwise when you are praising God in the Spirit, how can someone else, who is now put in the position of an inquirer, say “Amen” to your thanksgiving, since they do not know what you are saying?” (1 Corinthians 14:15–16 NIV11) “Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Is anyone happy? Let them sing songs of praise.” (James 5:13 NIV11) Psalms in the New Testament (Colossians 3:16) Most likely based on the Old Testament pattern and may have included the three songs in Luke mentioned above. “Because of the close links with synagogue worship, early Christians would have used the traditional Psalms as we do today.” Page 28 Hymns in the New Testament (Colossians 3:16) “A hymn was expected to have some doctrinal and didactic purpose and so in this category might come the passages in the New Testament characterised by their poetic form and creedal content.” Page 28 A good number of New Testament passages may have begun life as hymns before they were written into the Scriptures, or may have developed from the Scriptures. Some examples include John 1:1-18; Philippians 2:6-11; Ephesians 1:3-14; 5:14; 2 Timothy 2:11-13; Titus 3:4-7. Songs in the New Testament (Colossians 3:16) “These would include a short doxology as mentioned above: Luke 2:14; 1 Timothy 1:17; 6:15-16 and several parts of the book of Revelation: 4:8, 11; 5:9, 12, 13; 7:12 etc.” Page 28 Most likely they were simple songs rather like our choruses today. They may have been used in more informal settings for worship, and could have begun life as spontaneous improvised songs. Perhaps that’s what Paul is talking about in his letter to the Corinthians: “...When you come together, each of you has a hymn, or a word of instruction, a revelation, a tongue or an interpretation...” (1 Corinthians 14:26 NIV11) What might be some lessons for us today? I suggest the following, and look forward to your thoughts: Use the whole Bible. If we are only singing songs with New Testament themes, we are missing out. Where are the songs from the Old Testament? And not just the Psalms. There is a richness, depth and poetic beauty to the expression of praise we find in the Old Testament. Use multiple genres. We cannot be definitive about the differences between Psalms, hymns and songs referenced in the New Testament. Most likely there was reasonable overlap in the meaning of these terms. However, they cannot mean exactly the same thing or there will be no point in using the three words. They point to a variety of genres. Do our song services contain variety? Everybody sings. Jesus sang, his disciples sang, Paul and Silas sang in circumstances not exactly conducive to singing (I’m guessing they did not have a song book with them!). Are we helping every member of the congregation to engage with congregational singing? Not everybody has a great voice. Not everybody is confident. But everybody will benefit from singing together. Which of the above points speak to you? Pray through them asking God to reveal to you which one might be most relevant in your context. Whatever the detail, God will help you to see what it is he would like you to learn from this brief survey of music in the New Testament. Question for today: “What aspect of collective musical worship in the New Testament is most helpful for you in leading corporate worship today?" Please add your comments on this week’s topic.

Sermon by Barry Male.
Welcome to Episode 29 of Among Women “Espresso Shot” – a short strong coffee break of faith sharing and teaching from Pat Gohn. Today’s topic: Seven Sorrows of Mary This is the 9th installment in a 12-part series on the monthly church devotions. In September we honor the Seven Sorrows of Mary. This is a great time to engage Mary our Mother — as we lift our sorrows to her. She knows us and she understands. We can take comfort in Mary’s strength that is found at the foot of the Cross. With the ever-expanding church sex-abuse scandals we are currently witnessing in the news, the call to devotion to Mary under her patronage of Our Lady of Sorrows, and to meditation upon the Seven Sorrows of Mary is very poignant, indeed. Pray! Pray! Pray! Links for this episode: The Seven Sorrows of Mary are: 1. The Prophecy of Simeon: (Luke.2:34-35) 2. The Flight into Egypt: (Matthew 2:13) 3. The Loss of the Holy Child at Jerusalem for three days: (Luke 23: 27-31) 4. Meeting Jesus as he carries his Cross to Calvary: (Luke 23: 27-31) 5. Standing at the Foot of the Cross: (John 19:25-30) 6.

Message from Lance Bourgeois on December 14, 2014
A sermon preached on the Feast of the Presentation, inviting us to attend to the insights of Anna and Simeon (Luke 2:22-40)
Pastor Jim Bunch "And a sword shall pierce your own soul" prophesied Simeon (Luke 2:35 NIV). Disturbing words at the dedication of an infant. Jesus is no ordinary child. His was destined to change the world by giving His life a ransom to save us from our sins. That's the message of Christmas. Not pleasant but true. Thank you Jesus.
