How do you paint Jesus? This is the question that was posed to us this Wednesday night as we were joined by painter and speaker Eric Timm. Eric's profound and thought provoking presentation not only produced beautiful works of art, but also an idea that we are the ones who paint Jesus in our daily lives. Danielle Timm, Eric's wife, shared a poem to accompany the paintings about painting Jesus by our words and actions, and posing the question, "How do you paint Jesus to others?" This outstanding performance and eye opening message revealed to us the many ways in which our Father can be painted to the world. Whether it is on a canvas or through the Christ-like love that we show to those around us, how will we paint Jesus?

Celtic Christmas Worship Service with Timbrel and The Next Chapter

Message Summary
Christmas is all about worship, and our celebrations would be incomplete and empty without it. The birth of Jesus prompted the authentic worship of angels, shepherds, and wise men, and the false worship of Herod. Let's consider what genuine worship looks like in the lives of those who recognize the identity of the Baby in the manger as Creator and Redeemer, and allow it to become a lifestyle, rather than a once a week event.
