Most of us have heard of Christmas in July, but this year I think the weather is a little mixed up.  Thanks to a strong El Nino, we have enjoyed quite a warm December – that followed a warmer than normal November.  I’m not complaining at all.  In fact I am enjoying the warmer weather because it is keeping the heating bill down.

This weekend, I had a long weekend off because of Christmas.  Following work on Thursday, our family headed up to Pennsylvania to spend some time with my mom and dad.  We had a great time.  The time went way too fast because we had to return so that I could preach this morning.

I had the privilege of preaching at Waynesboro Wesleyan this morning.  I was without Pam because she is battling a cold.  The message was on Emmanuel: God with Us and the hope that we have because Jesus came in the flesh.  I hope to get the sermon uploaded over night and when I do, I will link it back to this page.  It has a unique twist in it about the Nativity of Revelation.  I’ll bet you didn’t know there was a Nativity story in Revelation.

This evening I returned by myself to preach a message on the importance of the wise men and what we can learn from them.

We have just one more week left of 2015 – needless to say it has been an interesting year.  Pam and I will be posting some thoughts on this year throughout the week.  Stay tuned for all of that.

I pray that your family has had a good Christmas and we will see you next week!
