Sunday Sep 19, 2021
Sunday Sep 19, 2021
Welcome to the 2nd sermon in our series on the book of 1 John. (2 of 13)
The letter of 1 John has long been a treasure for followers of Jesus. The second generation of the church in Ephesus faces many of the same accusations about the person and work of Jesus that the church still faces to this day. John, writing as an older, caring pastor, wants to steady and encourage the faith of God's people not only to trust and worship Jesus as God, but also to follow his example of light and love. John writes this letter so that the church might know that Jesus is Lord!

Welcome to the 4th sermon in our series on hard questions. (4 of 4)
It seems we live in a world of dichotomies: some people seem to be afraid to ask questions, while others seem to be afraid to give answers. There are so many opinions, so many “what about’s,” so much information that can render us almost paralyzed. What should we think? What should we believe? What should we do? In our context, many of those questions and doubts and critiques are directed at Christians and/or Christianity. Some seem pretty fair, some seem pretty far fetched.
We’re going to take the month of August and, with the help of some guest preachers, explore some of the hard questions about Christianity. How do we ask good questions? What about God and suffering? How can people claim an “exclusive” belief? Doesn’t religion lead to violence? Is Christianity homophobic? We are excited to welcome some wonderful, Christian thinkers in these areas to help us navigate Scripture and culture and belief and sort through some hard questions for Christianity.

Colossians 4:7-18: Focus on Others (The People of God)

Welcome to the 14th sermon in our series on the book of Colossians. (14 of 14)
Colossians is a wonderful letter written to a newer church in the city of Colossae. There are a number of different backgrounds that are represented in this young gathering of followers of Jesus that Paul is encouraging and equipping toward faithfulness! There are differing opinions on whether this was Paul's instruction to a very young and new church or if Paul was writing to them after a few years when their former ways of life had started to creep in. Either way, what Paul writes to this church is SO helpful and encouraging for any church to remember what Christ has delivered us from and what He is delivering us toward!
