Sermon from 07 April 2024

Sermon Title: “Were You There?”
Pastor: Linda Maifair
Scriptures: Luke 23:32-43

Synopsis: The two thieves on the crosses with Jesus. From Passover to Communion, God has commanded his people to remember what He has done for them, so that they will know how much He loves them, turn to Him, trust Him, follow and obey Him. We will take some time to remember the events of Holy Week and consider how this story, especially the story of the two thieves, is OUR story. To realize that yes, we were ALL there as Jesus took OUR sins to the cross and decide whether we will personally accept or reject Him and His sacrifice on our behalf.

Sermon Title: “A Cross In My Pocket”
Pastor: Doug Miller
Scriptures: Luke 9:23-27

Synopsis: Many years ago there was a poem entitled “A Cross in My Pocket.” It talked about a small cross that could be placed in people’s pockets or change purse. It was to serve as a constant reminder of who I was and whose I was. It was hoped that when I reached into my pocket or change purse I ran my fingers over that cross, I might remember those very facts in every decision I make.

Sermon from 10 March 2024

Sermon Title: “Three Shifts (Are Your Hands Open?)”
Pastor: Doug Miller
Scriptures: 1 Timothy 6: 16-19

Synopsis: We were created to live generously! When we do, we can experience a new level of joy and freedom. How do we become the kind of people who are generous with their time, energy, and resources? There are three mindset shifts related to our resources that will equip us to live life with open hands.

Sermon from 03 March 2024

Sermon Title: “Do Something!”
Pastor: Doug Miller
Scriptures: James 2:14-26

Synopsis: Keep your faith tank on full by doing something with it for others. You get MORE faith as you live your faith out. People who keep their faith on full are making it a habit to put their faith into action and serve others. They get invested. They may find something out of their comfort zone and dig in. We have to put ourselves in places where we allow our faith to be tested to grow. Because if you don’t use it, you’ll lose it. What are you doing with your faith? How are you using your faith?
