Summit Sermons

Join as we explore the surprising ways God uses creatures great and small to reveal his character. From Balaam's talking donkey to Jonah's great fish, from the ravens that fed Elijah to the sparrows God watches over, animals appear throughout scripture with purpose and meaning. This series explores how God not only created animals but actively cares for them, speaks through them, and uses them to teach us about his kingdom. Each message will bring us fresh perspectives on familiar Bible stories, and we also plan to bless your animals after our Second Saturday service on September 12! Whether you're blessing your critters or simply want to experience God's word in a new way, discover what whales and worms, camels and cats can teach us about trusting the one who delights in all his creation.

The books of Proverbs and James are considered Wisdom Literature. Proverbs is filled with short saying that are meant to speak big truths into our lives based on lived experiences. James, who tradition identifies as the half-brother of Jesus, writes about the struggles real Christians faced in the first century and they are many of the same struggles we face today. James and Proverbs both focus on wisdom and guidance for a life of faith in the midst of the ups and downs of life. They guide, and, at times, challenge in the hope of helping us live our faith in a difficult world.

The people Jesus spent time with and loved unconditionally were those who were thrown away by society. They were often ignored and even despised, yet Jesus chose to do the loving thing and in doing so shows us how we are to love those that we forget to even notice. We also see a picture of how far Jesus will go to reach us as we discover these stories in a fresh and new way.
