Christmas is coming soon. What should we do to prepare for it? The Gospel of Luke tells of the crowds in the wilderness responding to the announcement of the coming of the Lord. The crowds ask, “What then should we do?” The answer is essential.

"That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds, and snakes" ... is it the end of the world as we know it?

It might seem strange to contemplate the end of the world as we know it as we make our way to Christmas. But as we wait for Christmas, we're reminded of our waiting for Christ to bring about a renewed world. What are the signs of the end of this era and how should we respond?

Our Advent sermon series, "Countdown to Christmas," begins this week. Join us each week as we walk through the path to Jesus' birth in the Gospel of Luke, being mindful of the ways in which we prepare and wait for the coming of the Lord.

This week, we begin by reading about John the Baptist and how his baptisms helped prepared the way of Jesus. Our scripture readings will be Luke 3:1-6 and Baruch 5:1-9.

The mealtime is over. It’s time to leave and we wonder “Is that all?” Is that the end of conversation? Is that the last meal together? Or is it possible that this is just the beginning? This week we explore Jesus’ transformation of water to wine and the curious case of Jesus’ timing.

Our current sermon series is titled “The Table: Turning Ordinary Meals into Sacred Moments.” In this series, we’ll walk through different moments of a meal, how it relates to the gospel, and how it invites us into everyday spiritual moments. We hope you’ll join us for the series, but also that you might be intentional about your meals beyond our service time.
