In our first week of quarantined virtual church, we aptly continue our Lent series on being in the Wilderness. This week we examine a time Moses fell into doubt and depression (Numbers 11). We use this story to normalize what it means to doubt and identify some helpfully things we can do when we are in seasons of doubt.  

This week, we kick off our Lent series exploring just what it means for us to be in the wilderness. Jesus’ own 40-day wilderness exile will be our jumping off point for this series. We open things up by exploring the idea that wilderness times come with their own set of wild beasts. These beasts tempt us and are challenges for us to overcome. Thus, wilderness times are often times of challenge.

This week we close out our series on ‘Rigid Love’ by examining the books of ii and iii John. That’s right, 2 entire books! (Don’t worry its under 30 verses total). We look at each as an example of how to understand and utilize the outline and teachings we saw in i John. Then we discuss how the Community of Love is worth protecting and how the intent of an action is just as (if not more) important than the action itself.  

This week we kick off 2020 by starting a series on the books of i-iii John. In this opening sermon, we talk about why i John was written. We also discuss what it means for love to replace fear.

We kick off the third week of Advent by reflecting on Isaiah 53. We discuss how it is a forerunner to the Greatest Story, the story of Jesus.
