Today we celebrate the Baptism of Jesus. Jesus' baptism is a unique moment in his life as He first receives the blessings of His Father and second he fulfills as in his own words, "all righteousness." As we celebrate the Baptism of Jesus we take a moment to remember our Baptism and how our Baptism, according to Romans 6, 'changes everything' in our lives! This morning we are going to explore how our Baptism changes everything in our lives so that we can celebrate what God has done.

What are the blessings that you have that help you follow Jesus? One that you may not even realize is that you are a "peacemaker". God has given you the ability to not only be at peace with God but to be at peace with others. As we enter 2026 this is a great opportunity to think about this being a year of peace. First, we enjoy the peace we have with God because Jesus has made peace with us. Second, we have an opportunity to live in peace with one another because of the gracious work God is doing in our lives.

Welcome friends as we worship the Lord on this Sunday after Christmas! We rejoice that the little Lord Jesus asleep in the hay is our King of Kings forevermore. The Word Made Flesh reigns over heaven and earth, and we are loved and forgiven members of the Kingdom of God to life everlasting.

On this Christmas Eve, we celebrate and ponder the humble birth of Jesus as he rests in a manger of straw, though he is the Son of God. Jesus is the Word Made Flesh who is God With Us.

In this fourth service in The Word Made Flesh series for Advent, we rejoice that Jesus brightens our lives through his birth, dispelling the darkness of sin to bring forgiveness to light. How does light shine in darkness? Where do you need light to shine in your life today? What does it mean that Jesus is the light of the world, and we are lights also.

In this third service in The Word Made Flesh series for Advent, we give thanks that Jesus is our rock, a solid foundation on which to build a life of joy. When the storms come and life gets challenging it's so good to know we have something rock solid to cling to. May the Lord bless our time together in week 3 of our Advent Journey.

In week 2 of our "The Word Made Flesh" series for Advent, we remember that Jesus calls us to flavor the earth and to savor the good things that come from him through his birth. We are called to be the salt of the earth, but what does that mean? Why are we the salt of the earth? Can we lose our saltiness? And how does God make us the salt of the earth? May the Lord bless our time of worship in him!

In this first service in "The Word Made Flesh" series for Advent, we celebrate that Jesus is born in Bethlehem, the House of Bread, to nourish and strengthen us in our faith and feed us with his Word of truth to fill our lives. Today we explore what is the bread of life? Why do we need the bread of life? And how do we receive the bread of life? May the Lord grant his grace as we journey together this Advent season.

As we wrap up this series on the book of James, we are reaching a decisive moment if you will. James has been demonstrating how we take the gifts of God and oftentimes abuse them. But now we are given a gift that we cannot abuse but rather, it's a gift that brings healing and life. As we confess our sins before God we are forgiven, and as we confess our sins before one another we are healed. That’s the end goal of James. To find our healing and new life in Christ. May God bless our time of worship today.

What’s the limit of your patience? Do you get frustrated waiting in line at the grocery store? Do you hate sitting in traffic? Do you find yourself losing it when others are late? Now what would happen if what you are being patient for took a lifetime of waiting. This morning we tackle the issue of patience in Part 10 of our series James: Real Faith. Real Life. May God bless our worship!
