Christmas Classics
Among the traditional fixtures of the Christmas Season, the dazzling decorations, the whimsical music, and the hustle and bustle of the holidays, Americans for decades have gone to the movies.

Grab some popcorn, a drink and maybe some Raisinets, because these movies all point toward an even more classic tale. A true story - a documentary, if you will - of the Savior of the World and the events of His birth.

As we survey the Old Testament, we find that God's Word speaks to leaders - kings, governors, and rulers of many kinds. I believe the advice given to those leaders in the Bible is still relevant to all of us in leadership roles today at work, at home, even on the ball field. But especially during an election year, we will consider what the Bible says to the next President of our country. (This series has been adapted from material originally written by Andy Stanley)

Few things are as important to the Christian life as prayer. Yet, for many of us, we struggle to find the time or motivation to talk with God regularly.
