Advent Small Group Study
Advent Small Group Study begins Wednesday, November 28, at 6:30 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall. This four-week study will examine the life of Ebenezer Scrooge, the fictional leading character in Charles Dickens classic, A Christmas Carol. Ebenezer Scrooge is a man in dire need of a second chance. We may wonder if redemption is possible for such a greedy, dark and sad character. Through this study, we will uncover the teaching of Jesus that are sprinkled throughout Dickens' Christmas classic. We will seek to renew our perspective of others and ourselves as we look at this familiar story through the lens of faith.
Advent Sermon Series
"Finding the Messiah in the Movies"
begins on Sunday, December 2nd
When we celebrate family traditions by watching familiar Christmas movies, we may sometimes fail to recognize references to the greater messages of love, hope and peace.
Just as we find comfort in the familiarity of the movies, we also find familiarity and comfort with the story of the birth of Christ recorded in the Gospels. Unfortunately, we often fail to allow the re-telling of this miraculous event to genuinely tranform us and give us a new perspective.
As we look at some favorite Christmas movies, we also look for relevance in our lives as they point to the birth of Christ. The movies we intend to review include: Skipping Christmas (Christmas with the Kranks), The Bishop's Wife, Miracle on 34th Street, The Santa Clause, The Christmas Candle, and A Christmas Carol.
As an expresson of gratitude to the church family,
Mike and Nancy Smith invite everyone to the
