—to shift our direction toward humility, grace, and trust rather than striving for status and control. Even when we make wrong choices or lose our way, God’s unconditional love meets us right where we are, continually rerouting us back to Him. Tune in to reflect on the ongoing, daily practice of turning toward Jesus and resting in His grace.
Isn’t that the pot calling the kettle black! Don’t be such a hypocrite! These phrases are tossed around in our homes, at the TV, and in our friend groups. Jesus spoke plainly and clearly about judging others, and yet, it seems as if we cannot help ourselves from doing it. [Matthew 7:1-6]
In all of the Gospels, Jesus says that a life that follows him demands sacrifice. This week, we look at a conversation in which Jesus asks Peter whether he is willing to lay down his life for Him. We will consider how much we are willing to sacrifice as His followers. [John 13:36-38]
After Peter denies Jesus three times, the risen Christ meets him not with condemnation, but with breakfast, a searching question, and a renewed calling. In this message, we will explore how Jesus’ grace restores us after failure and turns our love for him into faithful action. [John 21:15-17]
True spiritual sight is a journey. If you’ve ever felt like your faith was a little blurry, or you're trying to figure out what God is doing next, this message will speak to you. Join us for worship this week as we explore how the Holy Spirit restores our vision and gives us the eyes of faith. [Mark 8:17-26]
While the answer might seem obvious, humans are often inept at knowing what we really want. By looking closely at Bartimaeus's cry for mercy, we see a man who wasn't just begging for physical sight—he was longing to be seen, loved, and freed from a lifetime of shame and marginalization.
. To give up worrying is to surrender. Join us this Sunday as we explore the gift of surrendering our worries to God. [Matthew 6:25-34]
Jesus wasn't kidding when he asked us to love our enemies. How do we go about that? Why would we do that? Today we explore one of the most challenging commands our Savior ever gave us. [Matthew 5:43-48]
It seems a silly question. Who would not want to be healed? What if Jesus was asking the paralyzed man, do you want to be part of the healing I was brought to do? Join us this Sunday as we explore what it means for followers of Christ to live as people who work for the healing of the world. [John 5:1-15]
Have you ever tried to calm the fears of a child, terrified over something that you know is not a big deal at all? We want the child to realize, we will not let anything happen to you, we are here. This Sunday we look at a time when Jesus asks the disciples, “Why are you afraid?” Why did he ask this question? What was he teaching the disciples? What is the lesson for us today? [Mark 4:35-41]
On Pentecost we conclude our Abundant Life Sermon and Study Series considering how we can have abundant life even in difficult times. [Genesis 21:8-21]
During times of transition, there are so many moments of uncertainty, doubt and fear. The Israelites experienced a season of waiting that lasted 40 years. Their story in the book of Exodus has much to teach us about how to have abundant life even in times of transition [Exodus 16: 1-8, 27-30]
Whether at an office, home, school, or business, all of us work. In fact, we spend most of our time doing “work” more than any other thing in life. So, how can we live abundantly while we work? Join us this week as we look at what scripture says about abundant life at work. [Ecclesiastes 2:4-11]
Whether at an office, home, school, or business, all of us work. In fact, we spend most of our time doing “work” more than any other thing in life. So, how can we live abundantly while we work? Listen as we look at what scripture says about abundant life at work. [Ecclesiastes 2:4-11]
Following Jesus isn’t something we do alone. In John 21, Jesus shows his disciples—and us—that abundant life is found in the abundant community he creates and sustains. Join us as we celebrate the gift of faith and those who help us live it. [John 21:1-14]
based on the concrete fact of the empty tomb. Even when we don't recognize Him, Christ is walking the road of disappointment right beside us. ⚓️
For the owner of the donkey, these words were an invitation to loosen their grip on the very thing they depended on for security. This Palm Sunday, we explore the power of surrender: what we place in Jesus’ hands can carry His presence much further than anything we try to hold onto ourselves.
Our parable this week offers to us a lens of faith.All of the characters in this parable are given responsibility, but not all of them believe that they deserve it or that they are capable of handling that responsibility. Join us as we discover how a lens of faith impacts and enhances daily life. [Luke 19:11-26]
It’s hard to watch the evening news or talk about our government institutions without the question of justice—real, equitable justice—quickly rising to the surface. Jesus taught us not only to pray for justice but to pursue it, even when it feels distant or difficult to attain. This Sunday, we’ll look at one of Jesus’ parables that offers renewed encouragement and fresh perspective for all who seek God’s justice in our world today. [Luke 18:1-8]
When you get home and glance at your kitchen, are you more likely to see the dishes out and dirty, or the ones that are put away? I tend toward the former and struggle with a scarcity lens, seeing what has not been done or what is lacking. In this week's parable, Jesus offers us a new lens, one of abundance. God never reaches His limit in love, compassion, and welcome. Join us as we study the parable of The Great Banquet. (Luke 14:16-24)
This Lent, we will journey with Jesus as he tells 6 parables on his way to the cross. We begin with Jesus dining at a Pharisee's home. When an unexpected guest arrives and begins to anoint Jesus’ feet, the host judges her behavior as inappropriate. Jesus tells a short parable that reveals a new lens for us to consider when we make judgments - the lens of humility. [Luke 7:36-50]
What burdens are you carrying into Lent? In this Ash Wednesday sermon, Pastors Emily, Stacy and Stephen confess their own struggles with judgment, shame, and fear. By bringing these struggles into the light, they invite us to ask ourselves: What do we need to let go of so that God's new creation can come into being? Join us as we explore how letting go of our heaviest burdens makes room for God's compassion, freedom, and new life.[Joel 2:12-14]
We conclude our Gospel on Conflict Sermon Series this week with Galatians 6. In these final verses, Paul offers faith communities insight on how to treat one another when we disagree. [Galatians 6:1-10]
We are reminded about this Gospel Truth - live by the Spirit. We will experience that in a tangible way as we pray for the spirit to be awakened in all of us, but especially upon the shoulders of our new officers. Wear red today as a visible sign of how our Church commits again to live by the spirit.Galatians 5:13-26
So much conflict comes from labeling those who are in and out - those who belong and those who do not. Join us this Sunday as we reflect on the Gospel message of belonging for all God's children.Galatians 4:1-7 | Luke 15:25-32
we continue exploring how to handle conflicts with people who hold views different from ours. The Gospel Truth is that we put on Christ. Galatians 3:23-28 | Colossians 3:12-17
This week’s Gospel Truth from Galatians 2 is this: Christ Lives in Me. Paul uses this image to describe his life that has been transformed by the grace of God. But what does it mean that Christ lives in us? And what does that mean for the conflicts in our lives? Galatians 2: 15-21
The letter to the churches in Galatia is filled with tension as the writer, the Apostle Paul, wrestles with the conflict these churches are experiencing. They are divided about what is the “right” way to live the Christian life? This letter reminds us what the Gospel says when we are in conflict, with others, within ourselves, and even, with our Christian brothers and sisters. Join us in our new sermon series as we explore Galatians and 6 Gospel Truths for our lives.Galatians 1: 1-10
looks to Simeon and Anna to find the answer. We are called to follow their model: Look for the Spirit of God at work, Worship as a central priority, and Bless those around us.Luke 2:21-38
Did you know It’s a Wonderful Life was originally a box office flop? Critics missed it because they were looking for the biggest stories—and history often makes the same mistake. While the world was watching the Roman Empire, God was tuned into a small whisper in Bethlehem. Rome had the armies, but Bethlehem had the Savior. Discover why redemption usually begins in the places we overlook.
On this Christmas music Sunday, hear what scripture has to say about the gift of holy joy and it's role in providing hope for us in every circumstance. [Zephaniah 3:14-15]
When we go through seasons of darkness, it takes effort to find the light. Because of Jesus, nothing in creation is beyond His light. How can we hold despair and hope at the same time? Join us for this second Sunday of Advent as we continue in our Advent Experiment of Hope, even when it is dark. [John 1:1-9]
The historical moment of the Advent story, “the days of King Herod,” was a violent and scary period of history. And yet, it is in that moment that God broke in to the world. In this first week of advent, we will read the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth, when God broke in to their world in such a startling way that they had to face their fears. [Luke 1:5-13]

In this sermon we turn to one of Scripture’s most haunting questions: “Where is your brother?”In the story of Cain and Abel, God reveals that faith is not just about belief, but about responsibility, the sacred call to care for one another.Join us as we explore what it means to live as our brother’s and sister’s keeper in a world that often forgets we belong to each other. [Genesis 4:1-10]
This is a challenging text (Mark 5:1-20) with its graphic imagery and the unsettling depiction of a man possessed by demons. It is crucial for us to study these hard texts as we consider what the Bible says about how Christians should engage with the poor, the marginalized, and the overlooked. Today we will see the beautiful way that Jesus restored this man’s dignity.
The Bible calls us to love God and to see the beloved in all people, with a particular emphasis on caring for the overlooked, or the least among us. How should Christians engage with the overlooked, or those who live on the margins in our city and world? [scripture - John 4]
We begin a new sermon series that explores the Bible and how Christians can engage with the issue of poverty. Jesus often talked about being a good neighbor. But more importantly, he demonstrated this in his daily life. This morning, we focus on a story where Jesus exemplifies the kind of neighbor we should be. [scripture - John 6:1-14]
Sept. 28 - Does the Bible Really Say That?: "Children Should Be Seen and Not Heard" | Stephen Finkel by WHPC
Certain scriptures guide our lives, and we believe them with every fiber of our being. Yet, there are other scriptures that we do not consider to be true. Isn’t all of scripture true? Join us this Sunday as we take an honest look at how we interpret the Bible and what the Word of God truly means for today.Matthew 5:17-20
Can the devil control a person? If so, can we blame this enemy of God for our wrongdoings? This Sunday, we examine what the Bible truly says about the root cause of our sin.James 1:12-16

Sometimes life throws a curveball, and we're left wondering, "Does everything happen for a reason?" 🤔 This week, pastor Al dives into this question that many think is in the Bible, exploring how the answer isn't a simple yes or no, but more of a "both/and." As with a river, we learn that while we have the freedom to swim right, left, or even upstream, the river of history is always flowing towards God's ultimate destination. What a beautiful reminder that no matter our struggles, God's love and mercy will always prevail!
Aug 17 - Does the Bible Really Say That?: "God Never Gives You More Than You Can Handle" | Stacy Ikard by WHPC
If you could ask God for just one thing during a moment of weakness or difficulty, what would it be? In our passage this week, David finds himself in such a situation and asks to behold God's "noam" (beauty). Join us this Sunday as we explore this Hebrew word for beauty and examine why David would choose to ask for this above all else in his moment of need.(Scripture: Psalm 27:4-6)
Jesus calls us to move into the unknown and to go where we have not been. Listen as Pastor Al challenges us as individuals and as a church to follow Christ into the deep waters of faith.(Scripture: Luke 5:1-11)
What does it mean to be great? What does it mean to live a great life? Join us this morning and reflect with us onJesus' definition of greatness.Scripture: Mark 10:35-45
What does it mean in the New Testament when writers refer to the “ekklesia,” what we translate as “the church”? And what does it mean to be the church beyond the first century? Learning from how this word is used in Scripture will equip us to be the church more fully in our lives today. Scripture: Colossians 1:1-20
What happens to us when we are depleted, spiritually and emotionally? What keeps us from quitting? Hear The Apostle Paul answer that question.
God's proclamation of his name and declaration of his character to Moses are foundational for God's people then and remain so for God's people now. If someone asks you "What is God like?", you cannot go wrong with Exodus 34:6-7 as your answer. Central to God's self-description is the Hebrew word hesed, which appears almost 250 times in the OT. No single English word captures the full meaning of hesed, but "steadfast love" is the way it is rendered in our passage. Such a love never ceases, and finds its deepest expression in the cross of Jesus Christ.
1 Kings 19 tells the story of the prophet Elijah as he faces burnout and asks God to let him die, but God revives him and meets him on a mountaintop. God doesn’t appear in an earthquake or fire or whirlwind, but instead in “the sound of sheer silence” or “a still small voice.” Unpacking these words in Hebrew calls our attention to the miracle of God’s communication with us, and how hard it can be to hear God’s voice. How do we hear God speaking to us today?
There are many kinds of power - but here we will explore power that can only come to us from God - power that accomplishes more than we can think or imagine! Scripture: Ephesians 3:14-21
In the final sermon of our Never Alone series, we willboldly proclaim together that even death itself cannot separateus from God - even after life, we are Never Alone.
Have you ever needed a 'second chance'? Today's sermon explores Jesus's ultimate act of grace on the cross, focusing on the conversation with the two criminals crucified alongside him. It highlights that even in his agony, Jesus offers forgiveness and assures one criminal of paradise, emphasizing his role as the "King of second chances." Pastor Emily's message is a powerful reminder that Jesus's love extends to everyone, offering redemption and eternal life, no matter their past.
Anxiety is the emotion that seems to be most popular to name, claim and blame these days. As humankind becomes busier, and as we have content overload, anxiety as a mental health diagnosis continues to increase at alarming rates. This week, we turn to Jesus to come alongside each of us with words of comfort and commands to rest.
Do we have a right to be angry? In other words, is it a God-given emotion that can be meant for good? This week we peer in on Jesus when he is very angry. This story gives us concrete tools for ways to peacefully deal with our own anger.
Spiders, snakes, being stared at… what are you afraid of?Fear can be a gift from our biology that keeps us alive. Fear can become unhealthy when it paralyzes or prevents us from living a healthy and whole life. God reminds God’s people over and over throughout the Bible that the means of tempering fear is through trusting that God is with us, always. Join us as we continue to explore how scripture speaks to our mental health and wholeness.
We will go Inside Out of Faith together as we continue focusing on how scripture speaks to our mental health and wellness this year. We will examine common emotions that, while not inherently bad, can lead to us feeling unwell. Our faith in Christ makes us well, not physically but in a deeper sense—living life fully and abundantly with faith, hope, contentment, peace, trust, and joy.

We will examine common emotions that, while not inherently bad, can lead to us feeling unwell. Our faith in Christ makes us well, not physically but in a deeper sense—living life fully and abundantly with faith, hope, contentment, peace, trust, and joy
Today we will look at powerful letters written by Dr. King and a letter from the Apostle Paul. Such letters inspire and transform. These letters from decades ago and centuries ago they speak of our call to be "love" in the world.
The Trinity is a complex theological concept. How can God be three in one—all distinct yet the same? The clearest example of the trinity, because the word trinity is NOT found in scripture, is when Jesus is baptized by his cousin John. In this sermon we explore the mystery of the Trinity.
Join us for Epiphany Sunday, as we celebrate the revealing of Christ to the world. Pastor Kevin shares the story of the magi from the East who come to worship the Christ-child and explain how sometimes God calls us to take the long way home.
As we prepare for a new year, what wisdom does scripture have for us? Perhaps the story of an old man meeting Jesus can inspire each of us to begin the new year as people of hope.

What does joy look like? Is it a baby that smiles at their parent. Or maybe the face of a football fan when their team wins a big game. Or does joy look like a couple who shares a dance after 40 years of marriage? When Mary really “gets” that she is going to give birth to the Savior of the World, she literally leaps with joy.

Video Version:https://youtu.be/GlJpH8L6B8UToday's word: Bitter (Ruth 1:19-21)Naomi’s honesty reflects the darkness we sometimes face before the dawn. Yet, her return marks the beginning of God’s greater plan for redemption and renewal.As you watch this short advent video, consider where God is at work in your life. How might God be transforming moments of despair into hope, even when you feel empty? Where is God inviting your heart to open to renewal and grace?
Video version:https://youtu.be/zmhsJD_xzdQToday's word: Security (Ruth 1:8-9)Naomi offers her daughters-in-law a blessing of kindness and security as they face an uncertain future. In Christ, we find the ultimate source of peace and steadfast love, holding us securely even when life feels fragile.As you watch this short Advent devotional, reflect on where you find comfort in God’s faithful presence? What reassures you that in Christ, you are safe, secure, and deeply loved?
video version:https://youtu.be/_x_hX279VrEToday's word: Return (Ruth 1:6-7)Like Naomi, we may find ourselves longing for renewal in seasons of spiritual dryness. Advent reminds us that God is already at work, leading us toward hope, promise, and grace—even in uncertainty. Watch this short Advent devotional and consider: Where do you need to open your heart to God’s provision? How can you trust that God is leading you to a place of renewal and faithfulness?
Advent reminds us that we are created for community; created for life together and life with God. Learn from the story of Ruth and Mary the true meaning of Emmanuel.
Video Version:https://youtu.be/P_tcWqgP5oo Today's word: Servant (Luke 1:38)Mary responds to God’s call with humble courage: “Here am I, the servant of the Lord; let it be with me according to your word.” This is the heart of Advent—God invites us to be servants, bearers of light and life for a world in need. Each of us has the privilege of partnering with God to build the kingdom here on earth. As you reflect this Advent, ask yourself: What opportunities is God placing before you today? Where are you being called to serve?
Video Version:https://youtu.be/Pi7QOdjHEhk Today's word: Precious (Isaiah 43:2-3a,4a)God speaks of unwavering love and presence: “You are precious in my sight, and honored, and I love you.” Advent reminds us of this great love, a love so profound that God sent Jesus to redeem the world. As we reflect on God’s closeness during this season, consider: What waters are you passing through today? What fires do you need God to shield you from? Trust in God’s promise to be with you, always.
Video Version:https://youtu.be/qI4yAq_7J8AToday's word: Called (Isaiah 43:1)The prophet Isaiah reminds us that God created, formed, and named us before we could even begin to respond. God claims us fully and lovingly. Take two minutes to watch this Advent devotional and reflect on what God calling you to do at this moment? What is God naming or redeeming in your life and in the world around you?
Video version:https://youtu.be/8MLrnMPaS4Y Today's word: Possibility (Luke 1:34-37)The angel Gabriel assures Mary, “nothing will be impossible with God.” This bold declaration has inspired countless acts of faith, hope, and transformation throughout history. As we journey through Advent, consider the possibilities God can bring into your life. What possibility does your heart yearn for today? Where might God be calling you to trust in the impossible?
Today's word: Courage (Luke 1:30-33)The angel tells Mary, “Do not be afraid,” as she learns of her role in God’s incredible plan. It’s an overwhelming message, but courage begins where fear ends. For God’s purpose to unfold, Mary must trust and let go of fear. Take a moment to watch this short devotional. As you reflect this Advent, ask yourself: How is your heart today? What fear must you cast out to embrace God’s calling in your life? Video version:https://youtu.be/1d-Sp0wyJB0
video version:Today's word: Blessing (Luke 1:26-29)Mary reminds us that blessings are not always easy—they can bring responsibility, challenges, or even sorrow.

How have you embraced or resisted God’s blessings?
Advent is a season of endings and beginnings. As the calendar year comes to a close, a new church year begins. This year our Advent sermons and worship will emphasize the words we need to hear again and again as we begin new seasons. Join us to be reminded of the truths that always carry us into God’s future. May these words of belovedness and hope help us to begin again in the love of God.
Video version:https://youtu.be/1ozFaZ5EHCQToday's word: Beginning (John 1:1-5)Advent marks the start of a new season, reminding us that God is always at work, bringing light into the darkness and beginning something new in our lives and the world around us. Take a moment watch this short video devotional and to pause and consider: What is God beginning in your life today? What light do you see shining in the dark?
Scripture tells and shows us time and time again that God’s compassion for humanity is central to God’s heart. But how does God’s compassion look? How does it stand apart from kindness and other fruits of the Spirit? In Stephen's sermon we explore this topic through the story of Jeremiah.
As followers of Christ, we are called to lives of service. Throughout life service looks different, but service roots our lives. This week in worship we highlight the root of service. We will look at a very hidden figure in the story of King David and the way this unnamed person helped another person live into a life of service.
Join us for meaningful remembrance worship as we celebrate our loved ones and church members who have died and now live eternally with Christ.
This week, our text tells the story from Luke of Jesus as a guest in an unnamed Pharisee’s home. Despite the stir Jesus created, he still got invited over for dinner! What Jesus received was anything but a welcome. Who are we in this story? Come and put yourself at the table.
If you could choose one person to NOT be at your table for dinner, who would it be? Our story this week is one where Jesus finds himself with an unlikely dinner guest. Jesus’ first response reveals his full humanity as he speaks an insult to this person. But Jesus’ second response reveals his full divinity as he offers grace and healing without measure. Let’s dive in together.
Have you been cheering for your football team this fall? Are there certain fans you just cannot stand? Americans are passionate about football and sometimes this causes divisions, arguments, and boos from the crowds on and off the fields. These battles are a small indicator of our greater cultural tension around difference. In this sermon we all are challenged to "Stay at the Table" to lean in to our differences and find how we can be one in Christ.
At our Lord’s table we are united in Christ and with each other. This Sunday we kick-off a timely sermon series, “Stay at the Table.”Join with Christian siblings around the world as we celebrate our oneness on World Communion Sunday.
Wrestling with God is part of the journey of faith. Sometimes it is because of our stubbornness or sin. Other times it is because the circumstances of life are unfair and draining. And there are times when our wrestling with God changes who we are. In this last week of our series, we will peak in on Jacob as he sleeps under the stars and gets a surprising visitor at night - one who forever changes his life.
Jonah is famous for the story about a person who gets swallowed by a whale. But there is so much more to this tiny little four-chapter book. Jonah wrestles with God from start to finish. In this sermon we are going to peek in to the final chapter and see where this wrestling match leaves Jonah and also, where it often leaves us.
"I see in my members another law at war with the law of my mind." This is the Apostle Paul speaking about his wrestling between living for the flesh or living for the spirit. These are the hidden wrestling matches within our minds and hearts. In this sermon we wrestle together and discover what sets us free from this battle.
The story of Job painstakingly models for us what wrestling with God is like. It also provides a heartbreaking example of how our great God is approachable, no matter our questioning, anger, confusion and doubts. Join us just as you are, bringing all that you wrestle with, before a loving and present God.
You are cordially invited to a Sinners' Dinner at the home of Levi the tax gatherer, Jesus' newest disciple. Come as you are, and be nourished by the grace that awaits you. We look forward to sharing this meaningful meditation in the Word, and time together at the Table. All are welcome.
“I am called to work in God’s kingdom, and I am equipped to do that work.” Following Jesus means serving. In this sermon, we get to peek into a conversation between a mom, her two sons, and her desire to make them the greatest children ever. No surprise, Jesus shares with her a unique way for them to be the greatest.
Faith is built through lifelong learning. There is always more to learn about God, scripture and our place in God’s story. In Stacy's sermon we will watch Phillip in the book of Acts guide an Ethiopian man to knowledge of salvation in Christ.
We often give lip service to the phrase “God is always with you.” There are many times when it does not feel like God is close. If God was close, wouldn’t it feel/look/seem not as hopeless? Today we come alongside two disciples, one named Cleopas, as they walk with sad hearts soon after the crucifixion. For them, hope had died. Come and discover how this was the farthest thing from the truth for them, and how we have hope as a promise from Jesus.
Grace is easy to preach about. Unless we add certain adjectives to the front. “Cheap” grace is when we take the price at which grace came for granted. Dietrich Bonhoeffer is a 20th-century theologian who understood the cost of grace. In this sermon, Pastor Emily leads us as we explore the cost of discipleship for us today.
APTS intern Rachel Finken uses the teachings of Gustavo Gutierrez, Peruvian priest and theologian, to study Jesus’s story of the goats and the sheep and how it challenges us to a new vision of Christ’s love at work in the world.
William Seymour had a way of going about “Church" that was completely unique in his time. In the early 1900s, the very segregated church kept to themselves. Through his understanding of the Holy Spirit, William created a church movement that still lives on to this day.What was his understanding? That the church dwells in the people of Christ and not in buildings. In Pastor Stephen's sermon we dive into the idea of an embodied church, living faithfully as God’s church in our day-to-day lives.
Whether fleeing persecution or prosecution, thousands of people fled to the deserts of Egypt in the 3th through 5th centuries to seek something bigger, maybe smaller, maybe safer, or maybe riskier. People heard of the “word from God” that the monks were sharing with those who came, and so they went, desperate for guidance, respite, and wisdom. It was the ancient desert mothers and fathers they went to hear from. In Emily Wright's sermon we hear from them as well.
Pastor Kevin delves into the profound teachings of Gregory of Nyssa on eternal life. Discover how the ancient wisdom of our revered Church Fathers (and Mothers) can illuminate our modern spiritual journey as we explore Gregory and his sister Macrina’s insights on the soul’s endless pursuit of divine love and the transformative power of faith.
In today's sermon we will listen for the voice of an illiterate itinerant preacher named Sojourner Truth. Truth was born in 1797, married and birthed 5 children all while a slave. We will learn of her amazing and courageous life and how she was able to put on the clothes of Christ speaking truth in love.
June 16 - Voices From the Wilderness: On the Threshold of Everything (St. Francis) | Stacy Ikard.mp3 by WHPC
Young people are a vital part of our church family, but are their voices being heard? This week, we explore how to create a space where children and young adults feel welcome to participate in worship. Jesus himself said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them." Emily Wright highlights Rodger Nishioka in this week's installment of Voices of the Wilderness.
This summer, we're exploring inspiring voices who found faith in challenging times.Our first spotlight is Evelyn Underhill, a scholar who urged Christians to integrate faith into everyday life. Just like the Athenians who worshipped "unknown gods," we often separate our spiritual and practical lives. But the truth is, God is already present in everything we do. So let's embrace faith in all aspects of our lives!
It is the most well-known and beloved hymn of all time,Amazing Grace, written in 1777 by John Newton.The story behind the song is truly one of amazing grace being found. Let us grow closer to God of Amazing Grace.
Change is an inevitable part of the Christian life, and as a resurrected people, we are continually being transformed in and through Christ. Stephen encourages us to rejoice in the Lord, pray with humility, and trust in God's unchanging nature, even in the midst of uncertainty and transition.For the graduating students, Stephen reminds them that the gifts and relationships God has given them are meant to be used to bring healing, hope, and peace to the world. The church community is rooting for them, praying for them, and sending them with the peace of Christ, which they claim and know through their weekly worship of God.
Don't fear getting older! Growing older is a gift from God!Challenges like loss build character and compassion.You gain wisdom and time to grow closer to God.Embrace your age and share the love of Christ with the world. Stacy preaches "The Speed Bump To Embrace".
Feeling lost after losing a loved one? You're not alone. Loss can feel overwhelming and like the end of the road. The story of Naomi and Ruth from the Book of Ruth are an example. Naomi experiences deep grief after losing her husband and sons.Despite Naomi's despair, her daughter-in-law Ruth chooses to stay with her. Ruth's loyalty and companionship are a source of comfort for Naomi. Be a "Ruth" for someone grieving & let our church family be your "Ruth" too.
Pastor Emily's sermon reflects on the metaphor of speed bumps in life, drawing from her own experience of encountering unexpected obstacles on familiar paths. She asks her congregation to reflect on their own "speed bumps," which range from work challenges to health struggles. Through the story of Jesus healing a blind man, Pastor Emily emphasizes that struggles, whether physical or emotional, are not punishments or tests from God but rather opportunities for divine intervention and revelation. Despite the blind man's rejection from the temple after his healing, Jesus seeks him out, illustrating a profound message of acceptance and understanding. The sermon concludes with a powerful reminder that Jesus, through his unwavering presence and compassion, meets us wherever we are on our journey of faith.
On this Mission Emphasis Sunday we welcome guest pastor Ezequiel Herrera from New Life Faith Community in McAllen, TX preaching his sermon "Sent to Share".
Pastor Emily is sharing with you is a first person account from the apostle Peter. This means that she will be acting like she is the apostle Peter. Peter was one of Jesus’ 12 original disciples. We have been looking at different stories about Peter the past 5 weeks. For today, while there will be many scriptural references, this is purely a figment of her imagination. We, the congregation will act as Peter’s young adult children. Peter is going to spend time talking to us about what is most important in life. Here is the apostle Peter from long ago....
Emily Wright preaches “Praise the Mount” as part of our “Wandering Heart” series. In today’s passage (Matthew 16:13-20) Jesus asks the disciples what they believe about him not because he needs validation, but to encourage them to actively engage with their faith and make it personal.We are encouraged to reflect on our own experiences of Jesus and how our faith fits into our lives. Sharing our faith stories can build understanding and connection with others, even if we don't all believe the same way. Owning your faith and sharing your experience of Jesus with others is important for personal growth and building community.
Welcome to Talkback! New Year, New Way To Live - Chapter 4. The way we act in our faith communities sets atone for all ages. This week we will look at some of the ways Paul encourages the church in Ephesus to care for each other with their attitudes, and especially with the way they talk to one another.
In Ephesians 3, the author, the apostle Paul, writes a letter to a community of Christians in Ephesus. Unlike individual-focused letters, this addresses a group navigating their faith in a culture challenging traditional norms. The passage, Ephesians 3:14-21, presents Paul's prayer for the community, emphasizing strength through the Spirit, being rooted in love, and experiencing the fullness of God. Drawing on the metaphor of building projects in Ephesus, Paul connects their daily lives to their faith, stressing the importance of a strong foundation in the church. The prayer reflects Paul's understanding of the audience's context and encourages them to be rooted well, like plants thriving in rocky soil, by making space for the roots of love to grow. The overarching message is the significance of Christian community, emphasizing relationships and mutual support as the foundation for a fulfilled and abundant life in Christ.
