A Plan Set in Motion (Reverend Ross Henzi)
1. God gives promises
2. Promises create faith
3. Faith compels action

A long time ago, a plan was set in motion. God made plans to bring us exactly what we needed. His plan was to bring a Savior into the world. God used his people to carry out that plan. And now he’s using us. God is using us to tell others about the Savior who has come. May we be found up to the task, for the plan only ends when Jesus comes again.
Amen.

From this altar to the mission field beyond these walls, may we take the name of Jesus with us wherever we go. In his name we pray. Amen.

Jesus Rewrites the Script by Pastor Nathan Moldenhauer

Does it ever feel like the script has already been written? Are you familiar with that phraseology and idea? “The script has already been written?” Your car breaks down. The garage tells you it is going to cost this much to fix. You go home and open your mail, and there is a check for that exact amount. You have your mind and heart set on a certain career path. This is what you have always wanted to do. But that door keeps closing, time after time. And the job you said you would never do, always seems to be available. You’re sitting in the coffee shop, and you suddenly know exactly what the person at the next table is going to say, what song will be on the radio and that the barista is about to drop a spoon. And it feels like the script has already been written. Is that true spiritually?

Join us for this week's sermon....

Let’s explore the ancient words of the prophet Zechariah—words written hundreds of years before Jesus walked the earth, yet describing his final days with breathtaking accuracy.

You'll be amazed at what you discover:

How did Zechariah know about the thirty pieces of silver? The piercing on the cross? The disciples scattering in fear? The cleansing power of Jesus' sacrifice? As we read these prophecies side by side with the Gospel accounts, you'll see God's loving plan of rescue unfolding with stunning precision—a plan set in motion long before that first Easter morning.

It is Good for Us to Be Here! (Reverend Ross Henzi)

1- To witness Jesus' glory

2- To remember his mission

3- To listen to his word

What Were You Made To Do?

(Pastor Nathan Moldenhauer) 

Now to be clear, I’m not talking about your occupation or career. I’m not asking about a hobby you really enjoy, a sport you have always excelled at. I’m not even talking about being a mom or dad, a wife, husband, son, daughter, brother, sister, grandparent. Rather, you and I are Christians. We believe and trust in Jesus as our only Savior from sin, death, and hell. We are Jesus’ disciples. You are a Jesus follower. And if you are a guest today, or someone brought you along this morning and you’re not so sure you would call yourself that, you’re at least curious about what that means or what that would like for you. So what does that mean? What does it mean to be a follower of Jesus? What is the fulfilling function or action of a Christian? Again, a guitar makes music; a lamp shines light. What were we made to do?

You are salt and light because that is what Jesus has made you. You have his righteousness and perfection by your baptism and through faith. You will enter the kingdom of heaven because he is your righteousness. Now be who Jesus made you. Preserve. Shine. Let your good deeds point others to your Father’s glory. God grant it. Amen.

Oh, Teach Me, Lord, To Trust You!

(Pastor Nathan Moldenhauer)

Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth.

But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things ~ and the things that are not ~ to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before Him.

"It is because of Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God ~ that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. Therefore, as it is written: "Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord."

1 Corinthians 1:26-31
