Mary's Surprising Pregnancy
The story of Jesus' birth is full of surprises - angels appearing, life plans changing, the Creator of the Universe becoming a vulnerable little Baby. Just like Joseph, Mary had plans for her life, and those plans got completely disrupted one day when she was visited by an angel. What did she do when God revealed an unexpected change to her plans? And what can I learn from Mary's experience so that I can fully embrace the changes God brings to my life?
Scripture References: Luke 1:28-34, Luke 2:19, Luke 1:46-48, Luke 1:38-40
From Series: "Christmas Surprises"
Christmas time has the potential to give us lots of surprising moments. We might receive a gift we didn't expect, the weather can change on us almost instantly, a relative may show up unexpectedly at a family gathering. When we look at the story of the birth of Jesus, we see lots of unexpected moments as well. At Flagstone this Christmas, we are going to discover (or re-discover) some of the surprises surrounding the arrival of a newborn baby in the small town of Bethlehem.

The Reluctant Prophet
Many of us to feel guilty or feel like there's some flaw in our faith when we are reluctant to do something that we sense God is putting on our hearts to do. Is it wrong for me to feel cautious about following God's plan for my life? How do I overcome my apprehension when I feel like God is calling me to do something I'm not really excited about doing?
Scripture References: Jeremiah 17:7-8, Hebrews 12:1, Matthew 26:42, Matthew 26:39, Jeremiah 20:14, Jeremiah 20:7, John 10:3, Jeremiah 15:18
From Series: "Flawed: God's Imperfect Followers"
We often look at characters in the Bible, especially the ones we label “Bible heroes,” as almost perfect people. We assume they all had unshakeable faith and very few if any character flaws. The reality is that many of the people we read about in scripture were far from perfect. They made mistakes. They doubted. They got things wrong. And yet, despite their flaws God used them to do incredible things. Who are some of these imperfect followers of God? And what can their stories teach us about our own potential to be used by God in powerful ways?
