Christmas and Christmas Songs are beautiful and even enchanting. But what about when life is not so "Holly Jolly?" Well, we still have songs of faith and one of those which is part of the birth of Jesus is Zechariah's song in Luke 1:67-79. Zechariah and the Israelites had been waiting a long time for the Messiah - more than 400 years in fact. We learn something from Zechariah and even more so from Jesus about what to do while we are waiting.

This message looks at the final two pieces of the whole armor of God: the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit.

Update on SPC Youth Program A Hidden Life of Prayer

Two pieces of the armor of God are considered in this message:  The shoes of Gospel readiness and the shield of faith.   The shoes of the Gospel is on one hand offensive as we take the good news of the Gospel to save lost souls.  It is also defensive as the truth of the Gospel protects us against the attacks of the evil one. The shield of faith is a reminder to "put our whole weight on God" when the enemy attacks.  We can trust God to do what he says he will do to protect us.

In this message, we look at two pieces of spiritual armor: Belt of Truth and the Breastplate of Righteousness.
