Cindy tells her own story of struggling with anxiety and depression and helps us see two things:
1) The Psalmist sounds like someone going through serious mental health challenges!
2) The Psalmist points us to a God of Hope, even when it feels like we're drowning in chaotic waters.

When God entered into humanity, he did so in a body. A physical body that got sick, and did manual labour, and smelled bad sometimes.
He had a real body.
We live in a world obsessed with image, and sex, and weight... but it's a world that is very "anti-body".
But what if God, in taking on a body, blessed all bodies?
Your body is blessed.

Genesis 1-2, 6, Psalm 19, 104, 148, 2 Chronicles 36, Romans 8
Sometimes when Western Christians talk about environmentalism it sounds like a BAD thing. People say “what does it have to do with people gettin’ saved?” or “don’t bring your environmental agenda into it!”
The problem is the Bible has an environmental agenda. And apparently God does too… Oops.

2011.12.11 - Kevin Makins - Advent 2011

The way you view the birth of Jesus depends a lot on where you’re standing.
For Advent this year we are going to look at the Christmas narrative from multiple perspectives, and ask the question: “how did each group view the incarnation?”
This week we look at the ox. What did the ox… think(?!)… about the incarnation?
The ox probably thought about the sacrificial system; all the stories he had heard about the altar growing up. He probably reflected on how so many of his friends ended up there, and wondered if this little child might change everything.
Apparently, the ox thought about all sorts of things.
