This Sunday, January 1, 2012
First Sunday After Christmas, New Year's Day One Service at 11 a.m. and No Christian Education
Sermon: A Face in the Crowd
Notice, Simeon wasn't looking in the church for the Savior; he was looking on the street. Where am I looking for the face of my Savior today? Do I look with expectation upon the crowd outside the church; examining every face for the Christ within? Am I poised like Simeon caught up in doing acts of kindness and justice? If I am, the face of salvation is still among the nameless crowd who shuffles past our churches in every city in the world. He is still there; am I poised to find him?
Preaching: Dr. Blair Monie
Music: The Sanctuary Choir will sing "Baby, What You Goin' to Be?" by Natalie Sleeth.
