Sermon Series - Down To Earth: December 2 - 24, 2018

Jesus came to be a “Down to Earth” Savior so that we could live out “Down to Earth” lives.

The View from the Back of the Line

November 25th, 2018

Pastor Paul is preaching.

Matthew 20:1-16

“I’d love my community if it weren’t for all the people.”  Have you ever heard someone utter a statement to this effect?  Between God’s call to live in community with other believers and to serve and witness to all, following Jesus is going to inevitably require us to figure out how to work with other people.

In fact, Jesus doesn’t simply want us to “play well with others”, He models a ministry that includes a radical welcome, embracing, advocating for, and nurturing of all people, especially the ones we would otherwise struggle with.  Matthew’s parable of the workers in the vineyard is a prime example.  The Grinch’s heart grew three sizes as his attitude towards others was transformed by the Christmas spirit.  What’s in store for our hearts this Christmas?

Are You Ready?

November 18th, 2018

Reverend Dan is preaching.

Hebrews 10:19-25

Are you ready for Christmas?  Does that just mean presents, trees, lights, and cookies?  Will getting ready for Christmas include a trip to the manger this year?

Sermon Series - Bullhorn: Sharing Your Faith: August 5 - 26, 2018

Sharing your faith. I know that when many people see those three words they immediately start to sweat and run and hide. Why is it so difficult to tell others about Jesus Christ?

In my 23 years of ministry I have been asked time and time again by people in the churches that I serve, how do I share my faith? This month we will dig into the fundamentals of sharing our faith. We will ask WHY, WHO, WHAT, and HOW?

At the end of August we hope that you will see that it is much easier than you ever thought it was. I look forward to seeing you all four Sundays in August.

Week 1: Why?

Week 2: Who?

Week 3: What?

Week 4: How?

What Will You See?

December 31, 2017 - First Sunday After Christmas

Rev. Dan is preaching.

Matthew 25:31-46

As we get ready to say goodbye to 2017 and hello to 2018 we will be talking about an eye exam.

When we take an eye exam they ask us what we see. The scripture today is about an eye exam. Jesus is asking us all to look at the same people to see what we see. When you look at the world around you, do you see it as Jesus sees it or as you want to see it? Before we enter 2018 may we each receive an eye exam. May we go into 2018 seeing the world through the eyes of Christ. When and if we do that, the entire world will look far different than it has ever looked before. SEE!

So What Do I Do Now?

Whirlwind... God In The Midst Of It Series

October 22nd, 2017: 20th Sunday After Pentecost

Reverend Dan is preaching.

Psalm 91

The reality is that the whirlwind never really leaves us.

It is because of the sinfulness of humanity that the whirlwind continues to spin out of control in the world around us. So, what do I do now is the question that we wrestle with today. What is it that I can do in my life to help calm the whirlwind even as it spins all around me? Can I do something? Can I make a difference? I am certain of one thing. If I do nothing at all, the outcome will never change. What is God calling me to do in the whirlwind?

God, It Just Doesn't Make Sense

Whirlwind... God In The Midst Of it Series

October 15th, 2017: 19th Sunday After Pentecost

Reverend Dan is preaching.

Ecclesiastes 1:1-11

I see the whirlwind all around me and it just doesn’t make sense.

God is a God of love and yet there is hatred, heartache and pain all around us. How am I allowed to react to it? How should I react to it? Can I yell at God? Can I get angry and frustrated with God? Can I pound on God’s chest until I just collapse into his arms? I am not afraid of the whirlwind because God is in the midst of it.

A Force To Be Reckoned With

Whirlwind... God In The Midst of It Series

October 8th, 2017: 18th Sunday After Pentecost

Reverend Dan is preaching.

Job 38:1-18

A whirlwind is a force to be reckoned with.

Sometimes we can see it forming on the horizon and we cannot get out of its path. What caused it? Why is it so destructive? Will it overtake me? The world we live in right now seems to become more and more of a whirlwind every time we turn on the news. Is God in the whirlwind? How do I find him? Job was 100% certain that he could find God right in the midst of his whirlwind. Job saw God in the whirlwind of his life. Do we?

October 2017 Sermon Series

Whirlwind... God In The Midst of It

In light of the recent events in our world and in our country, I feel as though God is trying to speak louder to a hurting world than he has ever done before. My mind, heart and soul are all racing about hurricanes, kneeling and not kneeling, and Las Vegas and how we find God in the midst of it all. As a church we cannot just bury our heads in the sand and act like we are an isolated bubble not called to speak the word of God to a broken world. The word of God can and should be a word that draws people together for a common outcome that lines up with God’s will. This sermon series is not a political stance one way or another. It is a sermon series of a God who is right in the midst of the whirlwind of our world right here and now. The whirlwind may never go away so it is now more important than ever to find God in the midst of it.

Living Into My Stengths Series

October 1, 2017 - Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost

Recall Notice

"Living Into My Strength" Series

September 24th, 2017

Reverend Dan is preaching.

John 21:15-19

Sometimes we forget. When things don’t go the way we had planned we sometimes forget how we got here in the first place.

Peter was walking in step with Jesus when he was alive and, all of sudden, Jesus is crucified. Peter’s Lord is gone. Jesus reappears to the disciples as they fish and Peter does not even recognize his Lord. He forgets about all his strengths. Jesus called Peter, “The Rock” on which he will build his church. Had Peter forgotten? Have you forgotten in the midst of difficulties that you have incredible strengths that have been given to you by God?  How will you remember? Maybe this Sunday will be your “Recall Notice.”
