Getting Ready for Sunday, December 5, 2010


There are many names for Jesus, but what do they really mean? Join us as we discover why He is called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. You’ll gain a new and relevant perspective on the Savior who was born in a manger over two thousand years ago.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas in our music this Sunday. We start a brand new series this Sunday entitled “He Will Be Called”. I love the song “O Come O Come Emmanuel” as it starts out with the prophecy of His coming, and finishes rejoicing on the chorus as He has come. “Lord I Lift Your Name on High” fits right on into the theme as well as it tells the basic story of what Christ has done for us. I think many people pass this song over as it seems to have been overdone, but don’t overlook the message in the song because of it’s familiarity. Truly take time to remember the sacrifice our Savior made for each of us and lift Him up as we sing.

We continue on with the traditional “Away In A Manger” remembering once again the way that our Savior came, and then move into a time of worship as we celebrate the name of Jesus with the song “No Sweeter Name”. We will finish the music portion of our service with “Here I Am To Worship” which once again ties in so well with our Christmas theme. The Light of the World stepped down into darkness to reach us all. What an awesome sacrifice our Savior made when He came down to us.

As we enter this Christmas season, don’t just get caught up in all the festivities and nostalgia of the season. Truly take time to remember WHY Jesus came and celebrate as you worship Him. I’ll look forward to our time together on Sunday
