The Reason for Christmas
Written by Bruce Applegate   
Monday, 10 December 2007

I heard from a friend today that their pastor made a statement in his sermon that went something like, “We celebrate Christmas because of sin.” Of course, I’ve always known that to be true, but I had never really heard it said that way before.

As a child growing up, I learned a lot of life lessons from my parents. Granted, I probably haven’t applied them all (sorry, mom and dad), but I believe most have stuck with me. One thing they taught me at an early age was to say, “thank you.”

Pray

As I sat down to write this month’s pastor’s corner only one word came to mind…pray. There are times in our lives when we are called to do just that…pray. Jesus took prayer seriously. On many occasions, He left the ministry He was doing and spent time alone with the Lord in prayer.

Are You Thirsty?

I guess I’m getting old. For the second time in three trips to Six Flags with our youth, I believe I got a touch of heat stroke. I think it’s a combination of heat, riding roller coasters and just not drinking enough liquids. The abnormal depletion of fluids in your body is called dehydration. Yeah, that’s it…I was dehydrated!

Holding God's Hand

This is a story I might have shared in a message a few years back, but the warm weather reminded me of it…and I feel compelled to tell it again. When I was a kid, our family would attend a county fair in Greenville, Ohio, almost every year. I think I was about eight years old when this incident happened.
