Ghost of Christmas Shame

In week #2, we recognize that for some, the holidays bring memories of joy and excitement. However, many others are brutally reminded of the mistakes they have made and cannot begin to get over it. Through Christ we need to learn that The Ghost of Christmas Shame does not have to stick around in our present and future. So how do we get rid of this one?  Connect with us this week!

This is Crazy Love

This week, we will look at how crazy loving God can be when we look at His crazy love for us.  Honestly, do we love this God who is everything or do we just love everything He gives you?  Because God’s crazy, relentless, all-powerful love for us is so amazing that God sent his only Son into the world so that we might live and that should lead us to respond by loving God with all our hearts, soul, mind and strength and loving the people around us. Join us this week when we discuss, “This is Crazy Love.”

When Life Doesn’t Go the Way You Planned

There’s no better time to kick of this series than Easter Sunday when it seemed all was lost, in Jesus we see Hope Rising.

In week #2, we will look at how we seek hope rising in those areas of life where life just goes in a completely different way.

Home Cookin’

Thanksgiving for many is one of the best holidays.  Just think about it, turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, etc.  It is so awesome!!!  Now when we look at our lives, events high and low always seem to be surrounded by food.  In this week’s sermon, we will look at how the idea of “food reflects a God’s grace.”

Live Passionately

So much of our daily lives seem so mundane, boring and just existing like a log in the rapids — waiting to get caught in the rocks, rapids or next waterfall — being driven along by the moving tides.  When Jesus spoke of the life he desired to bring to us, it was one of passion not one of meager existing.  If you had one month to live, would you want to just coast down the rapids or would you want to see & experience every moment to the fullest.  Why wait until we are facing death, we should be ready to learn this week how we are to Live Passionately.

Pay It Back – Pay It Forward

12 Then Jesus said to his host, “When you give a luncheon or dinner, do not invite your friends, your brothers or sisters, your relatives, or your rich neighbors; if you do, they may invite you back and so you will be repaid. 13 But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, 14 and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”

The Good Samaritan

Luke 10:25-37(NIV) The words spoken by Jesus are powerful, life changing, and world changing.  Many bibles want to set them apart so much that they printed in red letters.  For the next several weeks, we will look at the words of Christ and how they can inspire, transform and call us to a higher level of faith.  This week we will look at the Good Samaritan.

Be Complete

Matthew 5:1-6, Luke 18:9-14 Have you heard it?  You know what he said or what she said.  When we hear these things we often wonder about the importance of the someone’s words.  Words can help, harm, lead, destroy, etc.  Either way they convey the importance of what someone wants to get through.  Following Easter, the disciples wanted to live for Christ in a powerful way, as I am sure many of us do today.  The scriptures tell us that he…
