Christmas is Coming: Mighty (Lk. 1:46-55) Chris Altrock – Dec. 23, 2018

This entry is part [part not set] of 2 in the series Christmas is Coming

The Christmas story, and the very first Christmas song, is about a world filled with problems. It’s about a God who used his Spirit of power to send his son to earth as a baby in order to do something about all those problems. But the song and the story doesn’t end there. That same Spirit of power has been given to you so that you might be given to the world, just as Jesus was given to the world. Jesus was not the only gift given at the first Christmas. We, each, are intended as gifts to be given to the world, empowered by the mighty Spirit, in God’s ongoing quest to make this world a better place for all.

Wednesday night saw another mass shooting in our nation. Twelve people were killed at the Borderline Bar and Grill in Thousand Oaks, CA. This followed the shooting at the Tree of Life synagogue on Oct. 27 when 11 were killed in an attack fueled by anti semitism.  That was followed by Lion Air’s tragic crash of an airliner into the Java Sea shortly after take off, resulting in the loss of all 189 passengers. These have been difficult days.Go: Memphis Chris Altrock & David Jordan November 11, 2018
