Prayer is Disappointing
If we are honest, we would have to admit that often we are disappointed with prayer. It can feel like we are just talking to the air. What gives? If God is real and he loves us, why would praying to him be such a chore? Come this Sunday as we explore these honest questions and try to understand prayer in the light of God's word.

- Jul 8, 2018O Foolish Christians
O Foolish ChristiansWhat voice do you listen to? There are lots of loud voices clamoring for your attention and allegiance. As Jesus-followers we choose to listen to the voice of Jesus. Yet that is not always easy to do! The Galatians in the Bible had trouble focusing on Jesus' voice as they lived their daily struggles. Pauls' word to them helps us to stay focused!7.8.18 O Foolish Christian (Powerpoint)

Dreaming of LunchThis Sunday we begin our new series, The Five Preachers, with the Rev. Peter Milloy. Pastor Peter will look at a dream that Peter experienced in the Bible, that led to a very different, and exciting future for the church! Perhaps we'll begin to see a new dream for ourselves, and for our church, too!
- Jun 17, 2018Mature Life
Mature LifeThis Sunday is Fathers’ Day. We are to honor and give God thanks for your human fathers and for how they have shaped and influenced us in good and healthy ways. In worship, we will also turn to our Heavenly Father and learn how He wants to shape and mold us into what He intends for us to be. This is holiness. This week we will see this means inner maturity of our hearts affecting our outward maturity in how we relate to others. It’s a holistic deal!

Turning 21 with Wesley: 21 Questions to Christian MaturityWe’ve read through 1 John together, and we’ve heard the calling to holiness. Holiness is essentially becoming a mature Christian. This Sunday we begin our next series, “Turning 21 with Wesley.” Over the next 21 days, we’ll ask ourselves 21 different questions that John Wesley first asked the early Methodists to help them grow into maturity. It’s time to grow up. It’s time to become mature. It’s time to “turn 21” as Christians!
- May 20, 2018Sending Love
Sending LoveEver feel half alive? Do you kind of drift through your days? That’s not God’s intention. God intends eternal life for you. The amazing thing is, your eternal life has already begun! It’s not just for later. It’s for now, too! You have been given the Holy Spirit to make you fully alive now, and you have a calling to do. This Sunday we celebrate Pentecost, marking the coming of the Holy Spirit. But beware, you just might not leave the same as you come!
- May 13, 2018The Second Half of the Gospel
The Second Half of the GospelUsually we think about our salvation as something between God and ourselves. But 1 John pushes us into “the second half of the Gospel,” namely, that it is also about ourselves and others. Looking at our mothers helps us see what this love looks like. This Sunday we’ll dive deeply into God’s love, and experience how His first love for us pushes us to love others in the same way.
- May 6, 2018Pure Kids
Pure KidsYou’re created new. You’re different now. When you choose to follow Jesus, He changes you. That means we have to actively and intentionally give up our former ways that God doesn’t like. We need to let them go. We need to live into the identity we have in Jesus. We are God’s kids, and our heavenly Father wants us to stop sinning. This Sunday we’ll see how John says that we can stop sinning if we start loving. Let’s learn to love!
