Isaiah 9:6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Presents and Jesus
Presents! Do you know how much joy presents bring to children on Christmas? Many smiles stretch across childrens’ faces all around the world at the sight of presents under the Christmas tree. Presents are a way to spread joy, bond with friends and family, and make memories. I was talking to my Dad about his opinion on presents. During this conversation, he reminded me that the Wise Men brought gifts to Jesus. Now, Christmas doesn’t have to be all about receiving gifts, but about giving gifts and praising God for the things we do receive. In my opinion, the world has twisted Christmas into some sort of trademark for spending…

COLOSSIANS 3:12 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 1 Peter 3:15 But dedicate your lives to Christ as Lord. Always be ready to defend your confidence in God when anyone asks you to explain it. However, make your defense with gentleness and respect. There are a couple different meanings of gentleness, but this is the one that we are going to discuss today (can be found at Dictionary.com): not severe, rough, or violent; mild: a gentle wind; a gentle tap on the shoulder. Would you listen to somebody’s opinion if they threw rocks at you or hit you? I would think not! You would probably think that that person was brutal and untrustworthy. As believers in…
