    As Christians, we’re called to examine everything through the lens of Scripture. Today, let’s take a closer look at the origins of Halloween, what it celebrates, and, most importantly, what God’s Word says about it.

    The Danger of Celebrating Halloween as Christians - Ephesians 5:11 Introduction: As October rolls around, Halloween decorations start popping up everywhere—stores, schools, even some churches. For many, Halloween is seen as harmless fun: costumes, candy, and a chance to escape reality for a while. ...read more

    Christians are witnesses of the light who have seen something, have something to say, and who have a dangerous but rewarding job.

    “Witness” By Mark Winter Text: John 1:1-9 Have you ever read a scripture so thoroughly that you believe there’s nothing else to wring out of it? That’s what I thought with John’s Prologue, when suddenly verse 8 leapt out: “He himself was not the light (meaning John the Baptist); he came only as a ...read more

    Reading Light, Leading Light Series

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 24, 2022
     | 1,154 views

    People see the world from different angles. I’d like to suggest that the Holy Spirit gives us Christ’s perspective. We need to start seeing the world through Christ-colored glasses, which is not the same as rose-colored glasses. Jesus saw compassionately, but he also saw clearly and realistically.

    How many of you own a flashlight? I probably have half a dozen, and most of them have dead batteries in them. I’d be lost without the flashlight app on my smart phone, because it’s always charged. It works. It helps me see where I’m going. It is, to use Jesus’ word, healthy. I think you can all ...read more

    Considering the appearance of the Greeks who ask Philip to "see Jesus," the sermon reflects on this as an Epiphany story, and upon Jesus as the light of the world.

    Words are interesting things. Sometimes all you have to do is look at a word and you can figure out within a few seconds what the word means, even if you’ve never seen the word before. “Christmas” is one of those words.
