Sunday Service

Guest Pastor Kim Katterheinrich shares a message on the dangers of loving the things of this world more than our God.

Sabbath is an invitation to enter into a regular rhythm of work and rest in order to resist the demands of our culture to always be “on”.

Sabbath gives us an opportunity to remember who God is and what he has done for us. This is best achieved through Spiritual Practices such as bible reading, prayer, and journaling, as well as gathering for corporate worship.

The Sabbath is an invitation to rest physically, mentally, and spiritually. Two common errors include ignoring the Sabbath completely by not resting, or miss the point of the Sabbath by focusing too much on the rules. Instead, Jesus invites to rest in him, the Lord of the Sabbath.

As Christians, we belong to Jesus Christ and are loved by God. Jesus is fully God and fully man. Through him, we receive grace according to the Gospel.

Jesus is our peace. He is king and will rule with wisdom, righteousness, and justice. The kingdoms of this world cannot offer real peace. Only Jesus can.

Jesus is our hope. Salvation and new life is found only in him. Therefore, we should treat the hope like a guaranteed promise, rejecting our old way of life and living for Christ.

As children dearly loved by God our Father, we are called to be people of prayer. We should pray with confidence, according to his will, for our brothers and sisters in Christ, and against the power of sin and the enemy

Faith in Christ and love for him is demonstrated through our obedience to him. Obedience is not meant to be a burden, and we share in Christ’s victory over the world.
