Colossians 1:15-23 {Prayer} “Who’s on first?” Three simple words were put together and made famous in the 1930’s by Bud Abbott and Lou Costello. “Who’s on first?” … it’s confusing. Is it a question? “Which person is playing first base?” Or is it an answer? “The name of the first basemen is ‘Who’.”…
Colossians 1:1-14 {Prayer} Bob Newhart on the Bob Newhart show plays a psychiatrist. In one episode, a client arrives at his office and he explains his billing. “I charge five dollars for the first five minutes. Any time after that is free. Is that acceptable?” The woman can’t believe it. She says, “Of…
Matthew 5:1-12 {Prayer} As I mentioned earlier, we celebrate today the end of one year and the start of a new one, all in one service. This is a unique time for us to look back at what has been and to look forward at what will be. What do we see…
Luke 2:8-20 {Prayer} Do you open your presents on Christmas Eve or on Christmas day? How about your stockings? Do you get to check those every day or just on Christmas morning? Is your tree artificial or real? Do you decorate the outside of your house as well as the inside? These…

Matthew 25:31-46 Today is Christ the King Sunday. It is the last Sunday of the church year. It is the Sunday we honor Jesus as the king of our lives and the king of the world. This Kingship of Jesus is clearly seen in our gospel text as He says: “When the Son of…
1 Thessalonians 5:1-10 {Prayer} Here we are the weekend before Thanksgiving. Many people across our nation, including my family, we will be traveling. With that thought in mind … have you ever been in an airline terminal when the plane you are waiting for is late? Once that announcement comes across the intercom,…
Amos 5:18-24 {Prayer} Ever just have one of those days? You know the ones. One of those days where everything is going along great and then something happens. You burnt your toast, you spilled your coffee down your shirt, the heater in the car didn’t work this morning. Things just keep coming at you…
Revelation 7:9-17 {Prayer} As a kid growing, just like kids growing up today, I thought I was being deprived by my parents of what I thought were the bare necessities of life. When I was told no when everyone else I knew was being told yes or that it’s okay, I felt like…
