, I can't think of anywhere I'd rather be. than, than here with you. And celebrating Christ's birth. What a, what a glorious, morning and the singing was just fantastic.
Even I sounded good this morning. Well, let me invite you to turn in your Bibles to Luke 2. We'll be looking at this portion of the Christmas narrative, Luke chapter 2. We'll be looking at verses 1 through 19 this morning and if you want to give a title to the message, it would be from Taxing to Treasuring.
this, section of the Christmas story begins with taxation, as it were, and it ends with Mary treasuring. The glory of what God is doing in her own heart. Let me start on, a somewhat non-Christmassy note. How many of you would be interested in buying this couch that you see on the screen behind me?
Let's say I tried to sell you this couch for $20. How many of you would buy This couch for $20 from me. OK, a few. Well, true story, recently, some New York college students purchased this exact couch for $20 from a thrift store....
