E-Flash From Dan, 12/19/14

Dear E-Flash Friends;
 
The brilliant thinker and author C.S. Lewis referred to the Incarnation (God becoming man) as the “Grand Miracle.” According to a C.S. Lewis website he called it the Grand Miracle because he saw “every other miracle of Scripture as preparing for, demonstrating, or resulting from, the Incarnation.”
 
In other words the Incarnation had to happen first in order for every other miracle that Jesus performed here on earth—including the Resurrection—to occur.
 
We will be talking about this wonderful Grand Miracle at the services this Sunday, December 21st, as we celebrate the birth of the Lord Jesus.
 
Lisa has planned our worship time for the Christmas services and in a memo she sent the team earlier this week she expressed her feelings this way: “I... CAN... NOT... WAIT! :) So looking forward to worshiping with you all!”
 
I agree completely. You won’t want to miss this one!
 
I really hope you can join us. Service times are 9am and 11am.
 
Love and blessings,
 
Dan
 
 
P.S. We also have a great service planned for Christmas Eve. Why not make plans to bust away from the pumpkin pie for a few minutes and join us for our beautiful candle-lit service this Wednesday, the 24th, at 9pm? I truly believe your heart will be blessed.
