It's a crazy, zany Disney tale. But you might be surprised how THE EMPEROR'S NEW GROOVE can shed light on one of Jesus' greatest teachings to his disciples (and us!). What does it mean to truly "die to self" so we might live for others? Join us as we study Matthew 16:21-26 (and follow the exploits of Emperor Kuzco, Pacha, Kronk & Yzma)!

Walt Disney's 2nd full-length motion picture, PINOCCHIO, is the charming tale of a marionette-turned-boy, who finds himself getting into all kinds of trouble - even with his very own "conscience" (aka Jiminy Cricket). Join us as we follow the storyline and parallel some of Paul's writings from the New Testament.

It was the 4th full-length motion picture by Walt Disney - and his most beloved film! The beautifully animated delightful story of the young elephant with the big ears. Join us as we follow the exploits of Dumbo & Timothy Mouse as they seek to "grow into" the gifts that Dumbo has been blessed with. Matthew 25:14-30 is our text: the parable of the talents.

It's "the one that started it all." Snow White & the 7 Dwarfs was Walt Disney's first full-length animated motion picture. And what a picture it was! Join us as we look at some fun facts about Snow White, delve into Walt's childhood & upbringing, and revisit this classic Disney film... as we see how evil (& temptation) still impact our lives today. Genesis 3:1-10 is our text.

"For everything there is a season, and a time and purpose for every matter under heaven... a time to weep, and a time to laugh..." (Ecclesiastes 3:1,4) In the tradition of the Eastern Orthodox Church, we are proud to observe BRIGHT SUNDAY! It's a service of laughter & joy, knowing that Easter is the "ultimate joke" on Evil! Death is not the end. Christ has risen from the dead! Hallelujah! Join us as we listen to funny stories, jokes, comics, and watch a few videos as well. The JOY of the Lord is our strength!

On that first Easter morning, the Gospel of John tells us that Mary Magdalene came and found the tomb empty. She went and immediately told 2 disciples who came to see it for themselves. Their respective responses were quite different, and challenge us to reexamine how WE respond to the resurrection of Jesus! The text for today is John 20:1-18.

On this historic night in the life of the Church, we examine an unnamed woman who came to anoint Jesus with costly ointment. Was this merely a wateful act by an obsessed follower (like the disciples suggested), or something more? Jesus seemed to think so. What are the implications of her act for us today? Matthew 26:6-13 is our text tonight.

On Palm Sunday, Brother Ed Mullins shared his testimony about how God has become Lord of his life - a life that was frought with difficulty. Ed is a powerful witness to the transforming power of God that can be a blessing so one can bless others.

According to the religious leaders, she was "caught in the very act" of committing adultery. This woman was forced to stand before the crowd at the Temple, and be judged by Jesus. But Jesus refused to judge or condemn her. Join us as Pastor Angela Galanis Price walks us through this powerful story from John 8.

Jesus came to the house of Martha and her sister Mary. Martha shared the gift of hospitality. Mary shared the gift of her time & focus. Traditionally, this story has been used to say we're often too busy to spend time with Jesus. But is that the whole story? Join us as we examine this interesting passage from Luke 10:38-42.
