Sermon Reflection 1/26

“Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power.”                         Ephesians 6:10   My mind often struggles to quantify the magnitude and might of God. When I was younger, God was a bigger version of my dad. He was funny and kind and loved people well and enjoyed being a part of […]

Sunday School

Join us every Sunday morning at 9:30 in the sanctuary for a church wide Sunday School class.  We are studying what it means to be The Church.  Don’t miss out on this great opportunity.

Sermon Reflection 12/15

“Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you: he is Christ the Lord.” Luke 2:11   Have you ever received a gift you were not expecting? Too often in our culture we become expectant of gifts and generosity, so when we receive a gift on Christmas or a birthday, we […]

Sermon Reflection 12/1

“The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death a light has dawned.” Isaiah 9:2   I love nostalgia. My favorite holiday activities include reminiscing over old movies and pictures and dusting off old decorations that remind me of childhood wonder. My delight […]

Sermon Reflection 10/27

  “In your anger do not sin. Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold.” Ephesians 4:26-27 How do you react when things do not go your way? What do you run to when you’ve had a bad day? When you face hardship, […]

Sermon Reflection 9/15

“But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions- it is by grace you have been saved.” Ephesians 2:4-5 Ephesians 2 is by far my favorite passage of scripture of all time. Ephesians 2:10 was my senior verse […]

Sermon Reflection 9/1

  “And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit.” Ephesians 1:13 Do you remember what it felt like to be included as a kid? Do you remember picking teams […]

Sermon Reflection 8/25

For the righteous will never be moved; he will be remembered forever. He is not afraid of bad news; his heart is firm, trusting in the LORD. His heart is steady; he will not be afraid, until he looks in triumph on his adversaries. Psalm 112:6-8 I will never forget being home one summer and […]

Sermon Reflection August 4th

“He does not eat at the mountain shrines or look to the idols of Israel.” Ezekiel 18:6 I am an expert at cultural assimilation. For the vast majority of my life I have enjoyed spending time with all sorts of people and learning and absorbing different aspects of their culture. In an effort to maintain […]

I Am the Gate

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” John 10:10 How do you feel about active rebellion? I remember very well when I learned to jump over the fence at our house when I was 4 or 5. We […]

I Am the Light of the World

“This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him there is no darkness at all.” 1 John 1:5   Where have you longed for light in your life? It could be as simple as stubbing your toe in a power outage and longing for […]

I Am the Bread of Life

“Jesus said to Philip, ‘Where are we to buy bread, so that these people may eat?’ He said this to test him, for he knew what he would do.” John 6:5-6 The way God decides to incorporate fallen and weak human beings in His plan is one of my favorite parts of the Gospel. Jesus […]

The Chief Cornerstone

“How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord is laid for your faith in His excellent Word!” Every child knows the key to a good fort is its foundation. Weather this means more couch cushions or an elaborate jump rope roof beam system, any inhabitable fort must have some element of structural integrity. I […]

From Generation to Generation

“Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe.” At times, I find it difficult to be thankful for the particular day I find myself in, let alone the historical time period. The time of the week or the particular […]

Jesus the Prophet

“Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. He is the radiance of the glory of God and […]

God the Alchemist

“I want you to know brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel, so that it has become known throughout the whole imperial guard and to all the rest that my imprisonment is for Christ. And most of the brothers, having become confident in the Lord by my imprisonment, […]

Bless the Lord, O My Soul!

“Bless the Lord, O my Soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name! Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.”   Psalm 103:1-2 In our consumerist culture, we often treat Sunday morning as a time of inactivity for our souls. Especially growing up as Presbyterian, I frequently downplay […]

Let All Things Now Living

“Let all things now living a song of thanksgiving to God the Creator triumphantly raise; Who fashioned and made us, protected ans stayed us, who guides us and leads to the end of our days.  His banners are o’er us, his light goes before us, a pillar of fire shining forth in the night,  ’til […]
