Do you take Jesus seriously?  Being a Christian is about more than just "pew sittin'." God will judge us on the help we have given, the uncalculated help to the least of these.  Pastor Mark shares examples of those that have exemplified this kind of service and love.

This year we have felt very far apart but we are still together in so many ways.  One of those should be in the ways we share our time, talent and treasure.

Sometimes during difficult times we are not called to sit around and wait for the other shoe to drop, we are called to action, just as Esther was so many years ago.

Daniel prayed passionately.  He gave glory to God  and then stopped to truly repent for his sins.

Three men had a huge choice: to bow to the golden statue and honor the king or disobey the king's orders and face certain death.  Their choice changed the nation and how their king viewed their God.  We are called to make a similar choice each day of our lives.

How often have we heard lately that someone is just waiting for what's next or for the other shoe to drop.  As we begin this series let's start by focusing on today, and in the midst of feeling like we are in exile, let's find joy and have some fun.

When a vineyard owner hires workers throughout the day, and then pays them all the same for different amounts of labor it seems unfair.  But this is how God shares his grace to us.
