Pastor Frank discusses a new preaching series beginning in August.

It’s a gift to be able to encourage others to share their stories.

Money can be a difficult subject, in relationships and in preaching. Not talking about it leads to all kinds of trouble. Take the opportunity to share the joy of generosity!

A conversation with a parishioner highlights the struggles we all have with dealing with change.

The church should hold the government and our leaders accountable when decisions or actions are contrary to the witness of scripture. Otherwise scripture loses its sacred authority. This past week, I concluded the Words of the Wesleys series with a discussion of the public nature of faith: what the Wesleys called social holiness.

This week's episode updates "The Crown" sermon series, then moves into a discussion of the process of sermon development.

The background and early years of the kingship of Saul.

Last week I deviated from the sermon series to address the spiritual issues related to suicide.
