- Sep 12, 2021What Is A Steward? (Matt. 25:14-30)
What Is A Steward? (Matt. 25:14-30)We can delight in the joy of the Master when we humbly embrace the life of a Steward.
We talk a lot in the church about Stewardship, and we almost always mean money, and by money we mean budgets, and by budgets we mean that we need you to give to the church budget. And that is to our shame. Because stewardship is so much more, so much bigger, so much more beautiful than trying to talk you into giving up your cash. So through our fall series, Stewards of the King, we’re going to take a look at the root of that word: Steward. The Bible uses the imagery of a Steward in reference to those who follow Christ an awful lot, but we’ve lost that. Hopefully this fall, we’ll reclaim it for ourselves.

- Aug 8, 2021Warming Up (2 Timothy 1)
Warming Up (2 Timothy 1)Like any exercise or activity, starting out to 'train in righteousness’ requires warming up with the essential practices of the faith.
Just as an athlete doesn’t just show up out of the blue to compete in the Olympics, so also our growing and maturing as Christians doesn’t happen accidentally. In 2 Timothy 3:16 & 17, we read, “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the person of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” Over the course of this series, we’ll be working our way through 2 Timothy to better understand just what righteousness is and how we are to train for it.- Aug 1, 2021Jesus And The Nobodies

The Trinity and the Christian Community
We know that we’re supposed to share our faith with others, to tell them about Jesus Christ. But when it comes to actually having those conversations, we often hesitate and struggle. Over the course of this sermon series, we look at why we’re sent and how to work through some of the challenges and struggles that keep us from sharing the hope we have in Jesus Christ with others.
This short series focuses on potentially overlooked connections between four facets of our Christian faith and life: compassion, education, attention, and prayer. The passages of Scripture we’ll explore will help us see how the connections between them can strengthen our worship and our witness.

Everybody Wants To Go To HeavenBecause of Jesus Christ, when we embrace the finality and the eternity of death, we are set free to fully live.
They say that there are only two constants in life: death and taxes, and most of us don’t like thinking or talking about either one. In fact, we pretty much do most everything we can to avoid the subject of death as much as possible, which is perhaps somewhat ironic given the wisdom expressed by that great theologian, Jim Morrison, who famously crooned, “No one here gets out alive.” Death is the one thing in life that can not be avoided, but most of us spend our lives trying to do that very thing. As we work through this series, we will see that because of Christ, the Christian not only does not need to fear death, but is able to truly live in light of our death.

Occasionally, over time, we may find that our phones or computers just start acting weird and problems start popping up. Often, we can fix that by simply restarting the device. Every once in a while, though, things get gunked up badly enough that we need to do a complete reset of the device. restore it to factory settings, and start over. Sometimes, we find the same thing to be true with our understanding of what it means to be the church, to be a Christian. Where we’ve had indications for the past several decades that this might be the case, our experiences with the pandemic and social upheaval over the past year has put these changes into overdrive. We need to ‘reset’ and get back to the basics of following Jesus. To that end, we’ll spend this series working through the Gospel of Mark.
