Reverend Rachel Heyduck kicks off our summer series, "Checked or Carry-On? What are you doing with your baggage?" by taking us into the discomfort or life and growth.
Sermon for Senior Sunday. Scripture Philippians 4.4-9
This week's lesson is about Jesus calling Peter to follow him. Before it gets to that, though, Jesus tests Peter patience a little. Maybe. We don't really know. But we do know they had met before and that Jesus apparently came across to Peter a
The most basic truth of relationships is that we ALL need connection. This week's scripture, Luke 2.22-40, reminds us that Jesus' family, and Jesus himself, share this same need with us.
The hardest part of forgiveness might be that Christians are responsible for letting the world know the good news of God's forgiveness of sins.
We present a straightforward, easy to follow process for forgiving someone.
Do we have to forgive to be forgiven?  That's pretty much what Jesus says in Matthew 6:14-15. This is the first message in our 3 part Forgiveness Series. 
Julia Castleman shares some of her story, offering hope for you and for many in the New Year. If you aren't a New Year's Resolution kind of person, this message might have you rethinking that.
The finale of our "The Story 'Til Now" series.
Even when we are not faithful, God is faithful. The people wanted a king; God wanted to be their king, but they wanted a human king.God gave them what they wanted. When has God gone ahead and given you what you wanted?
God's people want to be just like everyone else. After all God has done for us, how can this be?
"To obey is better than sacrifice," we learn from the OT, and the era of Joshua and the Judges show us that message in SO many ways!
We remember the saints who have gone on before us and we wait. Grieving is part of life and part of grieving is waiting. Learning to wait makes us better people.
This week's episode of "The Story "til Now" focuses on Moses and God's people being DELIVERED. How, and from what, have you been delivered? From what do you still need to be delivered? God is still at work; delivering is what God does!
What Joseph's life (Genesis 37-50) reminds us is that God equips us for the lives we are to live.
Jacob, son of Isaac and Rebekah, slightly-younger brother of Esau, helps us all learn an important lesson about life lived with other humans, and therefore, with God.
Abraham is such a big part of the story, he gets an extra Sunday!  This message presents the value of blessing, how to bless, and why we are also called to bless - so that through us God may bless "all the families of the earth."
We have an extra treat for you this week!  John and Becky Leverington, with Wycliffe Bible Translators shared with us about their ministry. Most recently, they opened and ran a counseling center in Anatalya, Turkey, for missionaries from around
Part 2 of our "The Story 'Til Now." We started with Creation, and this week add Frustration.
We are taking 10 Sundays to go through the entire story of the Old Testament. We start where our story starts, with creation. How do you know if a story is your story or not? Come and see!
Closing out our Closer Look series
Sometimes we can't make it on our own. (thanks, U2) To live as faithful followers of Jesus, we need help: support, community. We are part of a team, a group, a family, a body; the Body of Christ. We need each other.
Can you handle the Truth? Truth is, worship is important, even essential, in our being disciples of Jesus.
What about your baptism? One thing that happens in baptism is we are initiated into something bigger than ourselves. This was true even for Jesus.
1st in a 5 part series called "Closer Look," we're looking closely at some of the most basic elements of being a Christian. It all starts with confession: any challenge, issue, problem, brokeness we are willing to confess, God is willing to bei
