Rise Up

This Sunday we take a break from series and explore Jesus’ early ministry in the Gospel of Mark. As Jesus calls disciples, teaches, and heals, he consistently calls the people to rise up beyond their circumstances and limitations.

In the Beginning Was the Word

This Sunday we conclude our series on The Power of Words looking at this reminder: In the beginning was the Word. So what does that mean? Scriptures: Exodus 20:7; Psalm 19:14; John 1:1, 14a Click here for additional resources on this sermon. Copyright info

Religion & Politics

This Sunday we near the end of our series on The Power of Words as we jump into the potentially challenging subjects of religion and politics. It is my hope that we will take time to listen and to understand, and surely to rely on the God who unites us in love.

Tearing Down or Building Up?

This Sunday we begin a new series on The Power of Words. We begin with an exploration of the choice we make each time we speak. Will we tear down? Will we build up?

Joy Is Our True Home

This Sunday we continue with explorations of “home” with Paul’s instruction to “rejoice always.” Consider the possibility that joy could be a state of mind made possible through our deep connection with God through Jesus Christ.

Risking Love

This Sunday we continue with the Revised Common Lectionary and a familiar parable of Jesus that invites us to take risks for the sake of faith.

Choices

This Sunday we continue with the Revised Common Lectionary and a text from Joshua that reminds us that we make our own choices about our faith.

Do as I Say, Not as I Do

This Sunday we return to the Revised Common Lectionary and a text from Matthew that invites us to consider our motives for doing good in the world.
