McGough's Ministry

This morning as we look at the Transfiguration of Christ we are reminded that Christ is called to be the leading voice in our lives, not just background noise

As we finish up our journey with Simon Peter we see how pride can move us from a place of following to trying to lead Jesus. 

In Matthew we hear of Peter walking on water, but even amidst this he has doubt. We unpacked what it means to have doubt, and how we can address our doubt in a way that is formative for our faith. 

As we hear about Peter's denial and the ensuing shame, we find that shame needs secrecy, silence and judgement to survive, but can  be overcome through authentic and vulnerable relationships

Today we continued our journey of identity. We began to look at those things that keep us from our identity by looking at insecurities and where they are rooted

As we look at the Baptism of Jesus, we see what this can show us about who  we are called and created to be 

This week we journeyed through the idea of Epiphany and how we can live seeking epiphanies daily 

As we celebrate Christmas we are reminded that the gift of Jesus Christ is not for God-sake, but FOR US

In Ephesians 2 we hear how Christ is the foundation on which we build, and we are seeking to build our life in love. 

In Luke 2 we hear the Good News of Great Joy for All People. This morning we looked at what it means to be filled with Great Joy.
