A few weeks ago (on December 7, before the great snow storm), we saw how Jesus' birth, life, and death solved humanity's Single Greatest Problem -- alienation from God.  This Sunday we'll see how his birth, life, and death also has the power to resolve our Second Greatest Problem -- alienation from each other.

This week is our Annual Christmas Program, which will feature a variety of drama, wonderful Christmas music (including a couple numbers from our kids), and a brief homily from Pastor Jeff that draws it all together.  Last Sunday got snowed out, so let's pack the house this week, as we celebrate the birth of Jesus!

On Sunday Pastor Jeff will launch a three-part sermon series looking at Christmas from a very different angle.  If Jesus' birth marked the beginning of something new, that means it also marked the end of something old.  To fully appreciate the beauty of the new, we first have to understand the old it was replacing and […]

For today's sermon, we welcome a very special guest speaker, Ramona Johnson, as she shares her amazing story of despair and redemption.  Ramona has just released a book called "I'm Living Proof," and a documentary is being made about her life.  She wanted our church -- her church -- to be the first stop on […]

This week we resume our study of the life of Moses by delving into a passage that challenges us to think deeply about the importance of healthy boundaries.  Why are healthy boundaries important?  What should my boundaries be?  How can I grow my ability to maintain those boundaries?  These are some of the core questions we'll explore […]

Are you worried about our nation and its direction?  Does the current state of political affairs distress you?  Do you find yourself wondering, "What should I do?  What can I do?"  This Sunday, for one week, Pastor Jeff will pause our study of the life of Moses to explore what the Bible says we, as people of faith, and as a […]

Should we believe in miracles?  If so, why are they so rare?  Why doesn't God intervene more often?  And is there anything we can do to get more miracles?  These are some of the core questions we will explore this Sunday as we continue our study of the life of Moses and come to one of […]
