The Practical Life of Theological Thought
[Romans 12:1-2] – Dr. Paul Lyle
Worship Leader – Mark Hudson

This is where the rubber meets the road. For 11 chapters, Paul has been making the case regarding our position as sinners, our need for salvation, and God’s choice to dispense salvific grace upon whom he chooses. Now what? It is time to respond through sanctification.

Hope Anticipated
[Luke 2:22-38] – Dr. Paul Lyle
Worship Leader – Mark Hudson

Just days ago, there was excitement with the glory of the angels announcing the birth of Jesus. Now, nothing but an old man who makes a proclamation. Christmas Day has come and gone. As the decorations come down, and the new year begins, what is the hope you proclaim regarding Christ?

Hope is Born
[Luke 2:1-20] – Greg Wallace
Worship Leader – Mark Hudson

Many words, ideas and memories come to our minds when we think about Christmas. I trust that “hope” is one of them. Hope is one of the most powerful words in our lives. We have looked back to the coming of that Hope, how it has been shared and the promise, the prophecy of it. Today it is materialized; Hope is Born.

Hope Prophesied
[Luke 1:57-80] – Dr. Randal Lyle
Worship Leader – Mark Hudson

For what do you hope? The Jewish people at the time of Jesus’ birth were hoping for physical deliverance and national restoration from God, not unlike many hope for America today. However, before the birth of Jesus, God was sending his son for something much greater. He was going to bring the hope they didn’t even realize they needed.

Hope is Shared
[Luke 1:39-56] – Dr. Paul Lyle
Worship Leader – Mark Hudson

When was the last time you couldn’t wait to tell someone great news? You just couldn’t contain it. What about the hope that we have in Jesus? Are you keeping it to yourself, or are you excited to share it? Mary, couldn’t contain the good news she had been given. Today we look at what is called, The Magnificat.

Hope is Coming
[Luke 1:26-38] – Dr. Paul Lyle
Worship Leader – Mark Hudson

Hope resides in the promise of the future. It is the desire and expectation for something to happen. God was silent for four hundred years, and then God made it clear, hope was not far off. It was coming, and not just for the Jewish people, but for the entire world, including you and me.
