Pastor Mark shares an important message about Christians and God's plan for us in His creation on this weekend of Earth Day.

Jesus is risen and that changes everything...and we all say Amen!

Al three pastors take us on the journey of Christ's last week.  From one street that led a triumphant entry to another that led to his death, it all of this, does it change anything?  Does it change you?

Jesus says "I am the bread of life."  He came that we may not hunger for spiritual food but have everlasting life in him.

Jesus came to teach, he came to die for our sins, and yet he also came to be an example of a humble servant.  This is shown so clearly as he knelt down to wash the feet of his disciples.

Jesus said let the children come.  Pastor Mark shares 10 reasons why we should be like children in our faith walk.

Nicodemus questioned how we can emerge from our mother's womb a second time.  Truly, truly, amen, amen, Jesus answers.  And continues to explain how we are to be born again through Him.

How many times have you said or sung the word Amen.  In this new sermon series we will look at the many biblical meanings of the word and how it effects our lives. 

Jesus went up the mountain and was transfigured but it is also important to remember that he came down from the holy place to serve.

It is Scout Sunday and a great time to look at one of the ways we are called to be prepared.  How are you prepared for difficult people you encounter?  This Psalm gives us some advice.

Psalm 1 calls us to delight in the law of the Lord.  

Jesus said to Simon, go back out into the deep water and cast your nets again.  Simon was tired from a long night of catching nothing but still followed Jesus' instructions.  Do we still listen for Jesus calling us into deep waters?

Moses was called.  David was called. Jeremiah was called.  Isaiah was called.  Mary was called.  Who is called?  You are called.  

Though we are many we are all one body together working for one purpose.

How well do you listen for the voice of God.  For Jesus, he heard it audibly on the day of his baptism, but God still speaks to us in so many ways and he has a very important message to share with each of us.

We look at another word today as we discover the importance of the kings in our Christmas story.

We don't know if they were kings or wise men.  We don't know if they came from the Orient or from the nearer east.  There could have been 3 or 300.  There are many things we don't know about the kings but what we do know is what they brought to Jesus and how that pointed to the person and Lord that Jesus was to be.  

The message of the angels on Christmas even can be summed up with the letters that spell their name.

The Angel Gabriel visits us during worship with a word from God. (Note: we had some recording difficulties so the sound is a little jumpy)

An angel appears to Zachariah, gives him news, and then renders him speechless.  How did that change how he responded to the coming of Jesus and how does it change your response?
