Pastor Mark ties the Christmas story to Easter. In the Chronicles of Narnia, Aslan becomes the sacrifice in place of Edmund. He is killed by the White Witch but is resurrected much like Jesus. Experience the final message in the Chronicles of Christmas series.
Not safe, but He is good.
Today’s message was about Aslan the Lion. He was strong and fierce, but he was protecting his people. Jesus can be described in the same way. Jesus was infuriated when the money changers were selling their wares in the temple. He threw over the tables and said, “How dare you turn my Father’s house into a den of thieves.” (John 2:16) He was not tame, but He is good.
The inside is bigger than it looks on the outside.
The stable in Bethlehem probably didn’t look like much to the average eye. But God used that simple stall for something bigger, for a king. C.S. Lewis used this concept in the Chronicles of Narnia by using something as simple as a wardrobe to enter into an entirely different world. Appearances are not always what they seem and God uses the unlikeliest of circumstances to prove a point.
Join us for our Christmas Eve Service as we marvel in the mysterious ways of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

With Christmas nearing, I’m sure that gifts are on a lot of your minds. Gifts you’ll get, gifts you’ll give, and gifts you still have to buy. But what about a gift you could give to Jesus? Like me you may be thinking, “What in the world could I give to Jesus?” However, there are so many things that we can give: honor, adoration, thanks, and the list goes on. I’m going to give Jesus songs of praise. What will you give?
Is Jesus a liar, a lunatic, or Lord?
In C.S. Lewis’ book “The Chronicles of Narnia” the character Lucy is accused of being a liar when returning from the land of Narnia. Lucy is the child who always tells the truth and it is later found that Edmund is the real liar. Pastor Mark takes this further in exploring the possibility that Jesus may be a liar, a lunatic, or Lord. Listen to his message and come to your own conclusion.
