The Song For Today
O Little Town Of Bethlehem by Young Oceans

​Let’s Pray For Tom Dowling (Irish mission worker in Kilkenny)  
Pray for Tom and for door-to-door visitation and contacts made, and for in-person and online Bible studies, that God will be in all the interactions; pray that people will come to faith in Jesus, and believers will be built up in their faith.


Taughmonagh (South Belfast) 
Give thanks for fresh enthusiasm, some new members, and an awakened interest in the OT after engaging with the ‘Bible Course’. Pray for members as they continue to be salt and light.

New City Catechism
Q) Does the Lord’s Supper Add Anything to Christ’s Atoning Work?
A) No, Christ died once for all. The Lord’s Supper is a covenant meal celebrating Christ’s atoning work; as it is also a means of strengthening our faith as we look to him, and a foretaste of the future feast. But those who take part with unrepentant hearts eat and drink judgment on themselves.

Incarnation
Matt Boga writes:
One of my personal traditions over the past few Advents has been to read J. I. Packer’s chapter on the incarnation in Knowing God. This is far and away my favorite chapter in my favorite extrabiblical book, and it’s my joy to revisit it often. Read more here -

Mary’s Song (43 minute audio)
In response to the news that she would give birth to the Messiah, Mary burst into a song of praise. Recorded in Luke’s gospel, her words reveal her devotion to God and her willingness to trust and obey Him. In this message on the “Magnificat,” Alistair Begg leads us through Mary’s praise of God’s intimate care for His people, His authority over Creation, and His overflowing mercy. Mary’s humble example provides a pattern for our own personal and corporate worship.
