in this together

2/5/2023

 
There was an urgency in Jesus’ statement, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.” Why? Because He calls us out into the dark world to bring the light of His life, death, and resurrection so that all may know the salvation of the Lord through no other means than Jesus Christ. Let us have the same eagerness to sit down with the Ones in our lives that need to know the Lord’s suffering in order for them to have a relationship with God.

GOD BLESSES US WITH HOPE

12/4/2022

 
As followers of Christ, we are to continue to walk and be focused on Him. When you look at the world, it is easy to become afraid or lose hope. But in Christ, we have hope now until the end when He returns. This hope comes to us as Emmanuel, God with us. It is this blessed hope that came in a cradle that we focus on through the cross that gives us the gift of eternal life.

only Jesus

6/6/2021

 
Do you want to know the truth? Do you want to know the way? Do you want to know life? The answer can only be found in Jesus. You’ve probably heard it been said in Christian circles that to have Jesus is to have everything— and guess what? That is true. Everything, absolutely everything is found in Jesus Christ. Join us this week as we discuss how it is Only Jesus where we can receive life eternal, the truth of God’s word, and the way toward righteousness.

DEClaring the truth

4/11/2021

 
Easter is over— or is it? The resurrection of Jesus brings us new life, eternal life for those who believe in Him and that’s the truth of what God's word says. In today’s culture it is difficult to determine the truth because of all the messages that we are receiving and yet as a believer, we know the truth and are called to declare the truth of Jesus Christ, His life, death, and resurrection. Easter is not over, it is only the beginning for us to move out and declare His truth!

FAITH & LOVE TRIUMPHS

3/28/2021

 
As we continue with our Places of the Passion Sermon Series, we find ourselves at Golgotha (the place of the skull) or we may know it as Calvary (Latin meaning skull). The cross is never easy. It is repulsive and ugly. A symbol of the worst kind of torture, injustice, and brutality. And yet it is the central symbol of our faith. Join us as we venture to the cross and find there faith and love intersecting and announcing triumph.

An Eternal friendcation

2/28/2021

 
This week, we are traveling about 2 miles east of Jerusalem to the small village of Bethany. There are about a dozen references found in the Scriptures of this town. It was the home of Simon the leper, it is the place where Mary anoints the feet of Jesus. It is where preparations start for Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem. But most of all it is probably best known for being the hometown of Jesus' good friends, Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. And, we too can look at Jesus as our friend.

APRIL 10: good friday

4/10/2020

 
​We meditate on the 7 Last Sayings of Christ from the cross in today’s service. Use the time offered to reflect on the message and meaning of those last words Christ said and how they offer us new life.

APRIL 9: Maundy Thursday

4/9/2020

 
This is a service of Holy Communion and the Tenebrae. We walk through the last supper and night of our Lord Jesus to remember the sacrifice He gave of Himself so that By His Wounds We Are Healed.
