CHRISTMAS MESSAGE OUTLINE
IDEAS
The holiday season is, for many people, one of the most depressing times of the year. In fact, the suicide rate is higher between Thanksgiving and New Years than at any other time during the year. What a wonderful window of opportunity during this season to present a gospel message which is able to give hope and save those who may be looking for the true meaning of Christmas!
On the left are a few outlines which we trust will be helpful. We will attempt to add more as they are sent to us by our staff and folks like you. Please feel free to share any sketchboard ideas the Lord gives you so we may share them with others.
Listed below are some thoughts and ideas you may wish to incorporate into your presentation:
... Jesus is called Savior! Not an example or a teacher, but a Savior! If our greatest need had been information, God would have sent an educator. If our greatest need had been technology, God would have sent a scientist. If our greatest need had been money, God would have sent an economist. If our greatest need had been pleasure, God would have sent an entertainer. If our greatest need had been military, God would have sent a soldier. If our greatest need had been for justice, God would have sent a judge. But, our greatest need was forgiveness and redemption, and, therefore, God sent a Savior!)
... As we think about these Christmas Messages, we need to be sure that we receive the message of the angels like the shepherds did. That we too come to know Jesus and go away praising Him and glorifying His Name.
... What kind of message is your life preaching today? Like the Angels, are you living a life that points men to Jesus? Or, are you like the shepherds, so filled up with His wonder and glory that life is fresh everyday because of Jesus? Or, would you have to admit that like the innkeeper, you simply have no room for Jesus in your life. Which describes you best?
