Twelve Days of Christmas 2023 - Day 2

Pastor Tim contemplates sharing the joy about who Jesus is as we find ourselves on the Second Day of Christmas.

When Your Cup Runs Over with Sorrow (November 19, 2023)

This week’s sermon:

The holidays can bring back the empty chair, the family hurt, the memories of when everything felt joyful—and before long, sorrow and anxiety begin to take over. The words of Romans 8 help us in times when grief feels stronger than truth.

Pre-Pre-Christmas Celebration (September 25, 2023)

Tonight’s Steadfast:

When we feel so far removed from the things to celebrate, can we still have a reason to rejoice?

This Week at Little Hills: the Opposite of Joy (June 23, 2023)

Pastor Tim continues our exploration of the Fruit of the Spirit by looking at the opposite of “joy” in this week’s devotional.

We Need a Grace Stop (March 27, 2023)

Tonight’s message:

We’re wrapping up our study of Philippians tonight. Can the very last verse of the book help us better understand how we experience “peace”?

At the Playoffs (February 7, 2022)

As we live as Christians, we face struggles and opposition. Shouldn’t life be easier? Should we find a way to make it easier?

Not Enough Green Squares (January 31, 2022)

Sometimes the deck appears to stacked and it’s hard to see how life will do anything but go from bad to worse. How do we have joy then?

Sorry, Sold Out (January 24, 2022)

As we think about joy in dark places, Paul turns to those who are actually preaching the Gospel with the aim of discrediting him. What do we do when people and circumstances seem to want to hurt us?

Return to Sender (December 27, 2021)

So Christmas is over, right? Not so fast! Traditionally the Church celebrated the joy of Jesus’s birth in the days after Christmas and after a hard couple of years, there are some very good reasons from God’s Word to pick that tradition up.

Rumors of My Demise...

…have been greatly exaggerated. Again. I'm still here, I've just been very busy on a web development project. I'm hoping to find time to blog on some theological topics soon. Particularly, “mystery,” the term “practical theology” and other odds and ends. One of these days, I need to return to my attempt to define what the word literature means too.
