Sermon from 01 September 2024

Sermon Title: “The Sacred Side of Work”
Pastor: Linda Maifair
Scriptures: Genesis Chapter 1

Synopsis: “Sacred” is probably not the first word that comes to mind when most people think about work. But work is sacred because God is a worker, he created us in His image and called us to be his co-workers, and he’s given us work to do. All our work has a sacred side because we are to do it “as if we are doing it for the Lord” (because we are) and all Christians are called to the work of ministry by Jesus Christ.

Sermon from 25 August 2024

Sermon Title: “What Is Your Vision For Life?”
Pastor: Doug Miller
Scriptures: Daniel 9:4-17

Synopsis: You can likely identify the thing that is dominating your thoughts or causing you to worry pretty quickly. It’s easy to get caught up in the moment and culture we’re living in. But is it possible that the restless we feel is because we know God has a bigger vision for our lives?

Sermon from 18 August 2024

Sermon Title: “Conviction, Compassion. Connection”
Pastor: Doug Miller
Scriptures: Daniel 4:4-28

Synopsis: We all have convictions and opinions that drive us to make decisions that guide our life. But we often struggle to know how to balance our convictions with compassion for others with differing opinions. So how do we rise above the tension to love each other the way Jesus calls us to?

Sermon from 11 August 2024

Sermon Title: “In Whose Sight Do You Want To Be Right”
Pastor: Doug Miller
Scriptures: Daniel 6:1-28

Synopsis: There are a number of ways people determine what is “right” and what is “wrong”. As followers of Jesus the question is – will we make our decisions based on faithfulness to God, or in fear of others? The answer is often found in what we determine to be most important to us.

Sermon from 04 August 2024

Sermon Title: “Truth and Grace”
Pastor: Doug Miller
Scriptures: Daniel 1:5-16

Synopsis: In the middle of a divisive culture, it seems like every disagreement ends in a shouting match. But as we dig into the story of Daniel, we can learn the valuable lesson of how to disagree with culture without disrespecting others.
