Manna for your Soul

Scripture: Leviticus 25: 1-19

This message uses the story of Elijah to reflect on how God might help us be released into rest rather than stretching us to do more.

Worship Series: “Created for Connection”

God created us for connection and community. 

Drawing on the experiences of the early church in scripture, let us relearn how God leads us into lives of meaningful relationship with Godself and one another.

The message: “Connection with Community”

Scripture Lesson: Hebrews 10: 23-25 CEB

In our loneliness, we often retreat from church and community.  We are called, as believers, to prioritize the time for worship and small groups to encourage each other in the faith.

Scripture: John 11: 1-7; 17-26

Today’s question is: “Will Purpose make me happy?”

In a world that prioritizes “happiness,” God calls us into a more expansive vision of faith and flourishing. 

When we don’t have the answer to where we are going, we often feel like we are wandering and “wasting time.” 

But with God, no time is wasted. In our wandering, God offers us an opportunity to explore new possibilities through acts of creativity, wonder, and play.

Scripture: Exodus 16

Purpose is what we can do today. We must not only focus on the future but also the present. What do we have to offer right now, and who needs it? When we offer what we have now, we find – often to our surprise – that our purpose begins to come into focus.

Who Am I? That is today’s focus. We may feel like we are defined by our highs and lows, but first and foremost, we are defined by God’s love for us. God’s love promises to redeem our whole stories. It allows us to look back over our lives and see how all our experiences—good, bad, and in-between—can shape and clarify our purpose.

Scripture: Matthew 5: 13-16

Finding our purpose is discovering who God has uniquely created us to be and how our gifts can serve others at any moment.
