A Big God for the Little People (Luke 2:8-21)

As we look to the announcement of Jesus’ Birth to the shepherds in the region, we see how both heaven and earth celebrate. Here we see how our great God has sent his son for the lowly and needy.

The Humble Birth of the King

As we move to Luke 2:1-7 this week, we discover the humble birth of Christ and how it breaks the standards of this world, calling believers to live by a different standard. Here we will look at three idols that must be broken in pursuit of a Christ-like humility.

Who You Are Is Who He Is (Luke 1:76-80)

Zechariah, in the final portion of his Benedictus, prophesies as to what his son, John, will do and what the Christ will do. Their identities are wrapped up in their mission. For us, we need to consider our identities and how Jesus Christ should be our lives.  

Christ the King

After the birth of John the Baptist, Zechariah his father opened his mouth in praise and worship to God for what he had done–and what he was going to do. In this first part of Zechariah’s Benedictus, Zechariah focuses on God’s promise of an eternal King to sit on David’s throne, the Christ.
