In our second week of the "Becoming" series we consider the importance of Jesus, "true Vine." This text forces us to consider our own priorities and our relationship to Christ. Too often we try to be extra productive for God and this reminder is that productivity comes from our relationship with Him first.

Dr. Burt Palmer begins our Lenten series "Becoming" by preaching on one of Jesus' I Am statements: "I am the Bread of Life."

As we wrap up this series of “Putting Down Roots” we find four characteristics to living a life deeply rooted with overflowing thankfulness in Colossians 3:12-17.

Can there be something redeeming about our sufferings? Can God bring something redeeming from the brokenness, from that unexpected diagnosis? Paul reminds us that, in Christ, God is always with us and we can grow through the struggles.

Pastor Jim Welch continues our series "Put Down Roots" by preaching through the idea of being built up in community with one another. Our scripture reading today is from Colossians 2:6-7, and 4:2-6.

As we continue to focus on putting down roots we acknowledge that the work of being rooted in Christ has already been done by the grace of God through Jesus.  As brothers and sisters in Christ we are also rooted in community as Church with one another across all space and time.  It is who we are and who we are continuing to become. May our roots be more important to us than our differences and spur us to God-glorifying action!

What does Paul mean when he says “to continue to live your live in Christ?” And what does it mean to receive Christ? We explore the importance of answering these two questions.

Rev. Lowell Wertz share inspiration as a missionary for 40 years in Africa. Rev. Wertz's message is from Paul's words in Philippians 2:1-5.

As we launch our "Putting Down Roots" sermon series, summarized thematically by Colossians 2:6-7, we begin with our baptismal identity in Christ.
