Christmas

In 1966, English composer John Gardner composed a joyful Christmas tune for his adaption of a medieval carol called “Tomorrow will be my dancing day.” In this carol, we are reminded that God is personally interested in each of us and that God dearly loves us.

We celebrate Christmas as a time for feasting. That is why we call Christmas a “Festival” of the Church year. “Festival” comes for the word “feast”. This is not the only reason we gather together…

When you hear about missional renewal that is occurring elsewhere, do you ask “what about me?” As if God doesn’t love you enough to bless your community in this way?

Many people know a familiar hymn once sung regularly at confirmations: “Take thou my hand and lead me.”

The most profound description of the way that “King Jesus” rules over us, is discovered in the parable of the “sheep and the goats” in Matthew 25.
