By Bobby Moore Scripture: Exodus 16:1-21
In spite of our grumbling and doubting, God faithfully
provides what we need. God’s provisions rarely come in the form of huge miracles like manna falling from the sky. Instead, God often provides for His people, through His people. This is one of the roles of the church: to tend to the needs inside the church so that they may have the strength to tend to the needs outside the church.
Sunday December 1: “What Child is This? Emmanuel God With Us” John 1:1-14
The Old Testament names that one day there will be a child born of a virgin, and his name will be Emmanuel, which means God with Us. That’s such a churchy phrase, God is with us. As the prophet Isaiah spoke those words, it was a game changer. God would be involved in our day-to-day life, God would become a human like us in a grand act of love to save humanity from ourselves. God would step into our story in a concrete way, and still walk with us in the highs and lows of everyday life.
