sermon podcast By a Different Road

http://bridgepointchurch.podomatic.com/

After the Magi from far to the East of Judea found and worshiped Jesus-Savior... their lives were changed forever so they traveled back home “By a Different Road.” After finding & worshipping Jesus our lives can be changed forever as well by also traveling a different road…a God Centered Road in 2013 as we all launch into a New Year.


Listen as I not only recap the talks in BPC’s December series “Christmas is Not Your Birthday” but also specifically give BPCers practical application on how to travel this different road…this God centered road beginning January 2013.

sermon podcast Giving Up on Perfect

http://bridgepointchurch.podomatic.com/

At Christmas we celebrate the manger in light of the cross; 2 objects that are less than perfect and from what the Bible tells us and biblical scholars have researched about the 1st Christmas I don’t think that was perfect at all. In fact I think it was pretty messy, uncomfortable & downright difficult.


Even though things weren’t perfect in the lives of this Joseph & Mary God showed up bringing with their baby a message of hope in the middle of their mess so, I want you to know that God can show up in your life with the same message of hope in the middle of your mess. You see, we don’t have to be perfect for God to show up in our lives & use us!

sermon podcast "Expect a Miracle"

http://bridgepointchurch.podomatic.com/

Question; Who is more popular; Santa or Jesus?


Yes Christmas is about the miracle of seeing a child’s face light up after opening that special gift on Christmas morning but after all the wrapping paper is picked up from the living room floor are we reminding ourselves and our families that the greater miracle at Christmas is about celebrating the birth of Jesus in light of Jesus’ cross. In this talk Isaiah 9:1-7 provides us with some insight!

Hey, I’m down on Santa, NO! He’s the wonderful universal symbol of gift giving at Christmas time so Santa is O.K. with me but I think Jesus should be #1 and Santa #2. Just sayin…
