Our 2016 Christmas series starts with a look into the life of Joseph, Jesus' adopted father, dispelling myths and discovering the significance of insignificance.

Harbor Church takes a Sunday to celebrate what God has been doing in our hearts and minds during our "40 Days of Community" campaign and how this internal work is now leading to external actions through our "Season of Giving." Pastor Seth talks through our ministry projects catalog and all the ways you can be a part of serving people in need during the Christmas season.

People all over the world long for peace but how is peace achieved? The Apostle Paul gives instructions for the church at Corinth that if followed, will lead to peace with one another. Could your life and relationships use a little peace? With the Thanksgiving meal approaching are you anxious about relationships that are not at peace? Listen to Pastor Seth walk through the biblical wisdom for being at peace with the people in your life.

Jesus calls his church to care for each other through times of suffering, times of rejoicing, and all times in between. This care for each other should do two things; draw the interest of those outside of the church toward interest in Jesus as well as move from care within the church to care outside in the community. Every Christian has a ministry, how they serve the family of Christ, and a mission, how they serve the people Jesus is in the process of saving. What's your ministry and mission?

Everyone desires encouragement. To hear words of praise for a job well done, a goal accomplished, and a milestone reached reminds us that our journey is never alone. Jesus encourages his church to be a place where the gospel is remembered and proclaimed and that this truth would be the source of our encouragement and the foundation we build our lives upon. So how do we do this? Today's message by Pastor Seth Winterhalter will give us biblical insight to help us become people that encourage and build.

"Unforgiveness is like drinking poison yourself and waiting for the other person to die." - Marianne Williamson

We know holding onto the hurt and pain of wrongdoing done against us only hurts ourselves but how do we forgive? What does it really look like to be angry at the consequences of sin yet rest in the sovereignty of our God and Father? Pastor Seth Winterhalter speaks about three actions of a transformed life in Christ and how these reveal our need to receive and give forgiveness.

What is love? In our current culture love is about feelings and the pursuit of making ourselves feel happy. Biblically, love is less about how we feel and more about what we do; the daily actions of our lives. Jesus calls us to love one another and gives us examples through his life of what actions this love looks like. Are you loving people in order to be loved or in order to be poured out?

I want to love myself. I need to love others. Today's message looks at the biblical command that we "serve one another." This follows Jesus command that we love our neighbor as ourself. Most people nod their head at this truth but living it out is very difficult. Why? Because my comforts and desires don't want to be inconvenienced by the needs of others. Listen as Pastor Seth walks through the biblical solution to this problem.

"You have to EARN my respect." This statement is at the center of a secular worldview on the subject of "Honor." And it is completely backwards from a biblical worldview that gives respect freely because it has been given to every human at the very moment of their conception. Why do we give honor? And how do we outdo one another in giving honor? Pastor Seth Winterhalter answers these questions in today's sermon.

In the first message of our "Better Together" sermon series, Pastor Seth walks us through the Bible revealing how relationships are a primary theme between God and humanity. We were not created for isolation but for community. Healthy and vibrant relationships are not easy, though. They take hard work, sacrifice, and lots of selflessness. How are your relationships between God and others?
