Unto Us a Child Is Born (Burning Hearts Gathering 12/12/12)

Posted by Tim

It’s Christmas time! Time to remember and marvel at the Incarnation – when God became a Man – Immanuel, God With Us. The reality of the Incarnation is one of the most profound guiding truths for our hearts in daily life – it reveals the heart of the Father towards us, our day-to-day lives, our struggles and trials, our labors and sacrifices. It reveals just how relatable our God truly is, and how far He went to have that relationship.

It’s well worth kneeling at the Manger, not only in this season, but as a lifestyle!

Simple Faith – Believing and the Person of Christ (Burning Hearts Gathering 9/5/12)

Posted by Tim

We’re continuing to look at the Upper Room Discourse and Jesus’ teaching on: Simple Faith

In pursuing living a life of faith in God, there’s one place that journey reaches its peak: the knowledge of God in the face of Jesus Christ. When God became a Person, faith became personal, worship became personal and devotion became personal. In the Person of Jesus of Nazareth, we get to really sit at the feet of God, hear His voice, see His face and know His heart. God goes from being concepts and ideals to being a Person, and that forever shifts what relating with Him is like.

This message is a look at the treasure of God becoming flesh in the Incarnation, and then an introduction to a practical way to meditate on the life of Jesus in the Gospels.

Simple Faith – Believe (Burning Hearts Gathering 8/22/12)

Posted by Tim

We’re continuing to look at the Upper Room Discourse and Jesus’ teaching on: Simple Faith

This message zeroes in on Jesus’ foundational command: believe. Earlier in John 6, Jesus, when asked, told the Jews it was what they must do to please God: believe in He whom God had sent. Now Jesus teaches His disciples how belief is the only source of the love God desires.

Jesus makes two major points about belief in His teaching in the Upper Room: 1. it’s impossible to love rightly apart from belief, not just in the work of God in salvation, but in the Person of God. 2. it’s possible to believe because the Person of God is revealed to us through the Incarnate Son.

The implication of Jesus’ teaching is clear: every godly ambition must be thoroughly grounded in wholehearted pursuit of the knowledge of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
