A Mustard Seed? A Pearl? A Hidden Treasure? What is Jesus trying to say about the Kingdom of God? 

My first sermon in a new  configuration of churches into a cooperative parish. Based on 1 Corinthians 2 Paul desires to know nothing except Christ and him crucified.

Based on Romans 5:1-8, We start with the late author Rachel Held Evans and the reason she stays with the church: The reason to stay with the church is because Christianity addresses sin and directs us to the Lord, who cleanses and redeems us. She reminds us that there is a remedy for the sin-sick and stained soul.

Through the passage from John 4:1-26, Pastor Craig examines Jesus' breaking racial barriers and what that means for us in the wake of the death of George Floyd.

In the movie Field of Dreams, Ray Kinsella took a chance by plowing under part of his corn fields at great financial and personal lossfor a field of dreams. What in your life needs to be plowed under that God's Holy Spirit might work in and through you to create a new field of dreams for all to see Christ?

Acts 1:1-14 details Jesus Ascension to heaven. The disciples are caught looking up at the awe inspiring sight and told to wait for the Holy Spirit.  But the question is what do we do now?

Three things: Word, Waiting and Witness. In these in between times that is what we do as we live out our lives of faith and look to the Spirit for guidance. 

In 1 Peter 3:13-22,  Peter is writing to a community of the faithful in Asisa Minor. They are struggling.  But he reminds them of who they are in their baptism. And from that they need to be ready to answer why they have that hope. 

1 Peter 2:2-10 Peter talks about Christ being our cornerstone. When we build our faith on him, we bring with us our past, all that we are and all that we have. What is in thetime capsule of your life to remind you of who you are, where you have been and how far you have come in your faith?

A service based on Psalm 23. Ppleasenote this audio of the full online service, including Call to Worship, Opening Prayer etc. Nature seems to love symmetry. It's a principle that has been described as "change without change." We see this principle at work in God's loving care and protection of us. Change without change.

Luke 24:13-35

Willie Nelson sang "On the Road Again." The disciples were on the road to Emmaus and didint realize who was walking with them. Do we recognize Jesus in the stranger as we are on the road?
