Today we begin an exciting five-part series on uniqueness of Christ. Did you know there is no other religion that makes the claim that the Bible or Christ Himself makes about His eternal existence? Christ’s miraculous conception, the prophecies fulfilled about His coming, and His exultation that transcends time and space gives us a glimpse of Christ’s uniqueness.
The return of Jesus Christ is a sure thing and that certainty gives us an opportunity of a lifetime. He will come first for His church, and return with His church to set up His earthly kingdom. In light of Christ’s imminent return, how do we prepare? How do we make our life now count for eternity?
Much is said about the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. But the story is not complete without talking about the ascension of Christ. Where did He go? Is He coming back? If so, how should that knowledge affect my daily life now?
The Bible tells us to always be joyful but for people who are going through tough times, it can be hard to feel joyful. In this encore episode, we are blessed to have our regular host, Carmen Pate, share about her ongoing battle with leukemia and how she continues to experience joy in the midst of trials.
Today we complete our Advent series, The Right Time, with a look at the Shepherds. What was the status of a shepherd in the society of that day? How did they respond to the angelic hosts? How did they prepare for the arrival of Christ?

We have become so familiar with the beauty of the Christmas story. But perhaps we have failed to make a personal connection with the people in the biblical narrative who were awaiting the arrival of the Messiah. To kick off this 5-part Advent series, The Right Time, Rev. Mark Rae will re-introduce Mary, the mother of Jesus. Why was she favored, and how did she respond to the news Gabriel delivered?

How would one briefly describe God’s majesty, His interaction with, and master plan for mankind? Well, our Psalmist David wrote a beautiful song in Psalm 8, that does just that. Our speaker, Reverend Mark Rae, will help us glean from this beautiful passage, the truth of God’s sovereignty and grace over all creation.
