“A Glimpse of Resurrection” Text: Mark 9:2-9 Today we celebrate the Transfiguration, a day where we catch a glimpse of the resurrection. We see Moses and Elijah pointing toward Christ while the Father proclaims “listen to him!”

“She Began to Serve Him” Text: Mark 1:29-39 Today we continue looking at what it means to follow Jesus. Last week we discussed his authority and now we’ll look at how following Jesus requires both an active and contemplative side.

“A New Teaching – With Authority!” Text: Mark 1:21-28 Jesus taught with authority – an authority that even the demons respected. What does that mean for those of who claim to follow the authority of Christ? Corrie ten Boom helps us answer that question.

“What About Zebedee?” Text: Mark 1:14-20 Simon was called and Andrew was called and so were James and John. There’s a lot we could talk about in today’s Gospel passage, but what about Zebedee?

“Can Anything Good Come Out of Nazareth?” Text:  John 1:43-51 Can anything good come out of Nazareth?  As people who are named after this very question we know the answer is a resounding yes! We invite you to come and see.

“Beloved” Text: Matthew 2:1-12, Mark 1:9-11 The visitation of the Magi and the Baptism of Our Lord, two events 27 years apart, what do they have in common? They both show us the love and grace of God that beckons all to come and claim their status as beloved.

“God Made Known” Text: John 1:1-8 What is God like? God is like Jesus! God has always been like Jesus! There has never been a time when God was not like Jesus. So if we want to know what God is like, look at Jesus.

“Let it Be With Me” Text: Luke 1:26-38 On this fourth Sunday of Advent, guest preacher Rev. Annie Kee joins us to study Gabriel’s appearance to Mary.  The story of the Annunciation is our story as well; one of confusion and maybe even disbelief when God appears.  However, it’s also the story of God’s faithfulness…

“The Magnificat of the Theotokos” Text: Luke 1:46b-55 What if God asked you to do something that sounded absolutely crazy? Thankfully Mary not only answered God with a yes when asked to do something faith-filled and crazy, but she rejoiced and sung about it. Like Mary, may it be our desire to magnify the Lord.

“John the Baptist and the Change” Text: Mark 1:1-8 The good news of Jesus Christ is something be excited about. Mark gets so excited about it that he jumps right in and gets us started with John the Baptist when Jesus’ ministry got started. Join us as we journey through what that meant for Mark.
