Jesus + Nothing = Everything: Galatians 5

We begin a new series that seeks to answer the biggest theological quetions of the faith. Today we begin with biggest of all questions: Is there a God?

There is a reason we like nativity scenes… they leave out a very difficult story that is ugly. However, the hardest stories can teach us the most.

We conclude our sermon series on the letter that James the half brother of Jesus wrote to the Christian Church. We review the first four chapters and then we hear about having patience in times of trouble and the importance of prayer.

We continue our Advent journey towards Bethlehem and we are ready to pack another item for our trip: joy. This essential quality in our lives can be grown so that we may thrive…even in times of trouble.
