Last week, we discussed the importance of confessing. This week, we'll explore being unashamed. We've seen shirts, bracelets, and bumper stickers about being unashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. However, let's be frank - there's a big difference between being ashamed of the Gospel and being unashamed of being a Christian. People often say they're Christians and not ashamed, but how often do they share the message of salvation with others?

We often hear the word confess, but do we really understand what it means to confess? To confess to something means providing details. When it comes to confessing our sins, it's a different story. We tend to say things like, 'Lord, I'm a sinner, please forgive me.' However, true confession requires giving details. But doesn't the pastor already know our sins and see our faults? As Acts 3:19 says, 'Repent, then, and turn back, so that your sins may be wiped away.'

This week Pastor Tom
Takes us to Ephesians 4:2-13

And highlights the destructive nature of broken unity in churches, leading to division among believers. The negative impact of one person can be significant; imagine if they used their energy to spread the gospel. If you struggle to speak positively about your church or fellow worshippers, it's time to introspect and seek divine guidance. As believers, we must prioritize unity and avoid drama, focusing instead on maintaining peace. Verse 3 of Ephesians 4 emphasizes this importance.

This time of year, we're reminded of the powerful lyrics of "Mary Did You Know." Though Mary was aware of her baby's divine nature, the full weight of his impact on the world was yet to be revealed. As we enter this special week, let's focus on the transformative power of Jesus' birth, life, and legacy. The manger, cross, and empty tomb represent the hope, redemption, and joy that Jesus brings to our lives. His birth is a profound reminder of God's love and the greatest gift humanity has ever received. May we, like Mary, cherish the truth of Jesus' sinless life, spotless nature, and divine purpose, and hold it deep within our hearts.

“Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?

We have navigated through forgiveness and disregarding the critic. This morning, I want to remind you that no matter what you're seeking during this time of year, whether it's peace amidst life's noise, or you're struggling to find your voice to cry out to the Father in your brokenness, recall John 6:35, where Jesus says, "I am the bread of life; he that comes to me shall never hunger; and he that believes on me shall never thirst." For born-again believers, this serves as a reminder that we already have the perfect gift, knowing that Jesus went from the manger to the cross, to the tomb, and arose again on the third day.

Luke chapter 13:10-17

Last week we talked about finding forgiveness. This week, we're going to talk about critics. I promise that by the end of this series, it will all come together to make a beautiful picture. Everywhere you've been, whether it's restaurants or movies, has had a critic. Today, we call them reviewers.Now the text that we are looking at is something I want to point out to you is that Jesus went To Church. And he is Here this morning because I invited him myself I didn’t depend on anyone else to do it I did it. Not saying y’all didn’t invite him as well but I can’t depend on y’all to plan my walk with King Jesus

Over the years, we discuss this time of year as being the season of giving. While looking at Luke 6:38, it says something amazing. Let's take a look. The first part of this verse says, "Give, and it shall be given unto you." There's something about this time of year that makes us spend time looking for the perfect gift. Often, we need to be reconciled in our relationships. So, there's an order to this concept: we have to give in order to receive. We are given forgiveness by the precious blood of Jesus. So, we need to understand that the first word is "Give." I'm often asked the same question: how can I find forgiveness?

When we thank about thanksgiving the two words combined .We think of the History the culture the food.But I want us to separate those two words look at them apart. Then combine them back together. So the first being .Thanks: the meaning of Gratitude to be thankful for to have joy over receiving.

Then .Giving: the Adjective of Giving means this

1. providing love or other emotional support; caring.
2. "he was very giving and supportive"
