Rev. Adam Spore, 8:30 am Traditional Worship

& 11:15 am Modern Worship

Rev. Val Stewart, 11:00 am Traditional Worship

 

He had washed their feet. He had broken the bread. And now, in the quiet of that upper room, he was trying to prepare them for something they couldn't yet imagine — a world in which he would no longer be physically present, and they would have to find a way to carry on. His answer to their unspoken fear was a promise: that they would not be left alone. That something — someone — would come to dwell not just among them, but within them. This week, we sit with that promise and the mystery it carries - The Holy Spirit. Have you felt it? And do you know what to call it when you do? Join us Sunday as we ask these questions together.

    Is your faith enough?
    This Sunday, we will delve into John 20:19-30, exploring the story of Thomas, the disciple who needed to see to believe. Discover the profound truth that faith isn't a one-size-fits-all endeavor but a gift bestowed upon each of us uniquely. Together, let's unravel the misconception that faith is something we must conjure up on our own and, instead, embrace the transformative power of even the smallest seed of faith.

    Join us this Sunday with Seth Jones' sermon, "With All the Faith I've Got."

    Can we discern the true essence of our existence in the midst of our possessions?
    Join us this week as we delve into the Parable of the Rich Fool from Luke 12:13-31, where a man's quest for material wealth intersects with Jesus' timeless teachings. The familiar prayer, "Give us this day our daily bread," takes on a profound significance, challenging us to consider its layers of meaning in our spiritual and practical journey. Be part of this exploration as we unravel the connection between our relationship with God, the pursuit of wealth, and the call to be rich toward God in a world often marked by greed.
