Gifts of Worship
December 26, 2021
During the Christmas season, our minds are often on the gifts we’re giving, or perhaps receiving. Do we ever think about the significance of the gifts the wisemen brought in worship of the newborn Christ? On December 26, 2021, we will be called to remember Jesus as our King, Priest, and Sacrifice, and be challenged to give ourselves wholeheartedly in worship to him. Please join us in reading Matthew 2:1-13 in preparation for this message: Gifts of Worship. Click on the image to watch. Click here to listen.
Shepherding the Oppressed
December 19, 2021
There is a lot of discussion these days about oppression, but what does it mean to be oppressed? We are all controlled by someone or something in our lives. The question is whether we are controlled by the one who sets us free. On December 19, 2021, we will be challenged to live as those who have been set free by following Jesus’ example of love, thus lifting others who are oppressed under sin. Please join us in reading Luke 1:39-55 in preparation for this message: Shepherding the Oppressed. Click on the image to watch. Click here to listen.
Repentant Joy
December 12, 2021
We tend to think of repentance as leaving something behind, rather taking hold of something ahead. When our focus is on what we are turning from, all we are left with is a longing for the past. On December 12, 2021, we will experience the unexpected joy of aligning ourselves with the desire of God. Please join us in reading Luke 3:1-18 in preparation for this message: Repentant Joy.

The Path of Peace
December 5, 2021
We may feel like we must walk on eggshells in our modern world. We all want peace, but how can we have peace the way things are? On December 5, 2021, we will recognize the peace Jesus ushered in upon his arrival and be challenged to live for Jesus in the darkness of this world by serving those around us as Jesus did. Please join us in reading Luke 1:68-79 in preparation for this message: The Path of Peace. Click on the image to watch. Click here to listen.
The Beginning of the End
November 28, 2021
In our modern world, hope is a vanishing resource. Many would say that the future looks bleak, yet Jesus tells us to be watchful and pray. On November 28, 2021, we will be challenged to live today in the hope we have of Jesus’ arrival tomorrow. Please join us in reading Luke 21:25-36 in preparation for this message: The Beginning of the End. Click on the image to watch. Click here to listen.
