Weekly Message from Crozet UMC

Starting at the beginning, we explore Methodism’s genesis. England was experiencing a revival, known as the Holiness Movement, and that is where we meet two brothers, John and Charles Wesley.  From humble beginnings came a radical articulation of God’s grace and a passion for living it out. Associated Scripture: Ephesians 4:17-24 Your offering makes ministry […]

Justice, Mercy, Humility. We frequently hear these words in the news, in social media, and even conversation. Everyone has an opinion of what they mean, but what does GOD have to say about it? Believe it or not, long before the birth of Christ, the Prophet Micah had a very specific answer to the question. […]

This Sunday we close out our series on Graceful Exits by focusing on every person’s final exit: death. How do we gracefully exit life?  Does it really matter?  Yes!  A graceful exit from life can be one of the last and yet greatest gifts we can give to those we love.  Join us as we […]

The reality is that very few Christians stay at the same church their whole lives these days.  You may move to go away to school, when you get a new job, or when you retire.  Maybe you find yourself looking for a different worship style.  Or perhaps you have a tragic, painful experience with another Christian.  No […]

As Christians, we tell the story of Jesus, and we tell our story of experience with that same Jesus, but we are invited through the Church, the body of Christ, to learn and share one another’s stories.  Yet care and caution must be used to make sure that we neither misappropriate and miscommunicate another’s truth.  […]

When we have occasion to tell our story as individual Christians, it can be overwhelming to the point that we shrink back into silence.  Yet our story is an important prelude to the story that is unfolding in the one with whom we tell our testimony.  Hearing one can bring forth the other.  We cannot […]
