Synopsis: Scripture tells us we should pray unceasingly. We should pray humbly and gratefully. We should pray confidently and expectantly and hopefully. But maybe our New Year’s resolution should be to pray more dangerously.
Synopsis: We will use this Sunday to talk about our identity. What do we really think about ourselves and what does God think of us? In the Book of Romans, Paul makes it pretty clear of how much God thinks of us. He says “While we were yet sinners Christ died for us.” Before we ever made a move toward God, God moved toward us. He loves us that much. It is with that thought in mind we will come to the Lord’s Table to celebrate the broken body and shed blood of Christ. Symbols that rep-resent God first steps toward us long before we took our first steps towards Him.
Synopsis: Many times, when people ask for anointing, we think (and sometimes say) “Whoa, they must have something seriously wrong.” Or, “they must be going to have some serious surgery up coming.” But if we look at the text, it becomes pretty clear God intents for us to use anointing for far more then just serious sickness and surgery. Join us as we look at various opportunities we might consider the act of anointing – for new opportunities, to celebrate some aspect of our lives, to say “God I want to put my whole being mind, body and spirit in your hands.” Hopefully we will walk away with a greater appreciation for this lesser used treasure.
Synopsis: We all want to get the future right, and we all want to arrive safely at our intended destination. Follow these rules and you will get there on time and on purpose.
Synopsis: Christmas has finally arrived. Join us as we celebrate the birth of the Our King! Experience with us the events surrounding the birth. His dramatic escape from the king who wanted to destroy him. And realize with us, how much the world missed out on in the little town of Bethlehem on that dark night when the King came bursting on the scene.
Synopsis: When Jesus was born, it was different. Those there at Christmas witnessed the birth of Jesus, they knew they were experiencing something different. They had a little context for the birth they did not know exactly what he would do and how he would do it. But they knew He was different. They had a different frame work they put this birth into, they had a idea of who he would be and they had a clear picture of the character he would live with and lead with. They knew he was born to be a king, but they also knew because of his character this king would be different. They knew he was different from any king this world had seen.
