From Pastor Dave: Linda and I attended worship at St. Matthew’s UMC in Goochland Virginia on Sunday. I served this congregation for 10 years and it was good to reconnect with some longtime friends.

Pastor Mark Montgomery delivered an inspiration sermon; concluding a series on the Lord’s Prayer. During the service my mind wondered a bit of ways I could use his theme for a Wesley devotion. As soon as I returned home, I began my research on Charles Wesley’s reflections on the passages in Matthew and Luke’s gospels where Jesus instructs the disciples how to pray.

Andrew shares a few moments from this past Sunday where he got a glimpse of the kingdom of heaven in our families and children. Where will you see the kingdom today?

From Linwood: I don’t often record pieces I play on the organ, unless it’s what I call service music - you know, hymns, the doxology and things like that. Recently, though, I found an arrangement of an old hymn, at least I think it was a hymn, that I really liked so I decided to record it. I happened to have the video camera with me in the Sanctuary so decided to set it up. It’s a beautiful arrangement of I Have A Savior.

from Peakland United Methodist Church in Lynchburg, Va. Our message today is entitled: "Are You Saved?"

From Pastor Joe: Girls and boys welcome, a few days ago I was the Master Storyteller for vacation bible school here at Peakland. I told the stories of Jesus birth and when he walked on the water. I told the story of the Apostle Paul in the jail cell. Today, I want another vacation Bible school story from last week The story of 3 faithful people: Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego.

Andrew gets into the weeds of spiritual cultivation, as he ignores the real weeds in his garden...

From Pastor Joe: This past Sunday in worship, I described how the early church came to understand that Jesus is God. His disciples saw how he loved everyone, even those who hated him and even those everyone else hated. The disciples saw how Jesus always followed God’s will and helped everyone else draw closer to God. To see Jesus is to see God. We believe that God sends us Jesus and that Jesus is God.
