Celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior!Posted by Fairview Heights Northside Baptist Church on Sunday, December 27, 2020
On Sunday morning, two days after Christmas, the Rev. Calvin Brooks gave his holiday sermon, the folksy drawl of a lifelong Alabamian retelling the story of Jesus’ virgin birth. He read the first 20 verses of Luke 2. He urged listeners to allay their worldly fears and find reverence for God. And he testified, “I was taught a long time ago that joy meant this: Jesus first, others next, and yourself last.”
