I wont give away the answer as to which gospels tell the story of the birth of Jesus ... but my favorite, well this year I am really loving Matthew 2:1-12

Three? Favourite is Luke

Great clip, beautiful song, I loved the end scene when Mary is holding Jesus, and just looking at him.
I'll leave it to someone else to answer the question about the origin of the word 'Noel', but I will share this joke ... Did you know there are only 25 letters in the alphabet, because the angels sang 'No' ... 'L'

So good to know that David!
The correct answer to yesterday’s question was two of the gospels tell the story of Jesus’s birth, Matthew and Luke. As there were no correct entries, try one of the other challenges for a bumper prize on Sunday!

Ahhh ... but were there three?
SNEAK PEAK: this question will be discussed in this weeks sermon at Church in the Park ... youtubers will have to wait another week

I got a photo of a star but not sure how to upload it ... the significance of the star for me is that it represents God leading us and guiding us to come and worship

Perhaps just post the photo to the FB private group in the meantime! Thanks for participating.
Looking forward to hearing about the Magi today.

gold as a symbol of His kingship, frankincense representing H
is role as High Priest, and myrrh (an embalming oil) as a symbol of His sacrifice for us.

You beat me to it Pete :)

Post your replies early, there could be chocolatety incentives for the early birds on Sunday!

I love all the carols, but my top 2 would be 'Joy to the World' and 'Mary's Boy Child'


David van Wynen over 2 years ago

Matthew 2:11 "On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mothwr Mary and they bowed down and worshipped him."


David van Wynen over 2 years ago

For me the significance of the stable is to show us that Jesus came for the least of these, he came for all

The twelve day challenge is almost up. Enjoy the last two days!


David van Wynen over 2 years ago

Mary's initial response was she was greatly troubled and afraid


David van Wynen over 2 years ago
