Text: Colossians 1:9-11
Do you ever struggle in knowing how to pray for friends and family? When there's a specific need, we pray for that. But in general, how do we pray for our family members or fellow believers? The apostolic prayers in the New Testament are a treasure chest for us! On Sunday we'll consider Paul's prayer for the Colossians and break it into three easy to remember parts.

The gospel was bearing fruit both in Colosse and throughout the world - that’s what the gospel does! It is rooted in grace and develops best when people rub shoulders and invest in one another as Epaphras did with the Colossians.

In this message, we examine a Hebrew word that plays predominantly in the Old Testament and conveys God's loving care for us. It is difficult to render in English, hence different translations will give different English renderings. It is my hope that by examining this concept we will be filled with comfort, courage and confidence as we begin a new year.

Advent 2022: Heralds of His Coming - message 2
The Bible is full of people who cried out, How long, O Lord? Indeed Israel collectively languished under Roman rule. Jesus came through the line of broken people to save a people who are broken. Let's sit in awe and wonder as we relish the fact that God is with us - Immanuel. We'll draw comfort from His first advent and look to His second coming, when He'll make all things new.
Advent 2022: Heralds of His Coming - message 1
Prophetic voices spoke to the coming Christ and His ministry. Their detailed and composite picture shows us the glory of God, the beauty of Christ and the power of the gospel. It all begins with the wonder of the Incarnation and the blessings that would flow from the life and ministry of our Lord. Join us as we examine these gems and draw comfort and encouragement from the unfolding drama of redemption.
The Book of Beginnings opens with the catastrophic fall but also with the promise of redemption. This Sunday we'll see Jesus come into sharper focus as we trace the wonderful promises given through the Old Testament prophets and how they come to fruition in the New Testament.

Gratitude is meant to be lived out on a daily basis. Sentiments and words are important, but don't stop there! Express your gratitude through humble obedience and by loving the people around you.

Text: Psalm 22
During trials, suffering, and grief we often feel alone, forgotten, and even at our breaking point. David expresses this despair, Jesus embodied it on the cross, and believers still face it. However, in every chapter of this story, God shows Himself faithful leading to praise, hope, and a future worth any suffering we might face in this life.
Guest Speaker, former pastor, Steve Pettit
Sermon text: I Corinthians 4
We need to live life with a mindset that will keep us moving through the most troubled seas of life while asking others to follow our example. This mindset is what allows our Lord to build His church regardless of the challenges we face individually and/or as a collective body.

Text: Proverbs 23:17
It's easy to be drawn to things that "sparkle" in this world and under appreciate all that God's given us. The remedy for this temptation is to set our mind on things above, and remember that our life is hidden with Christ in God.

Text: Proverbs 15:4
God's Word has much to say about the power of words - our sermon theme from Proverbs for this Sunday! A wise person knows the weight of his or her words and uses them accordingly. With our tongue we either bless God or curse our fellow man - let's be sure to bless God AND build one another up with our words! Our words have such tremendous capability to destroy or give life.
