    This is the first of a series of two sermons addressing a change in the circumstances, but not in the vision or goals, of a church body. It was prompted by a pastor transitioning out of the church.

    There are a couple people who are missing here today, and their absence is notable....Rick and Patti Snodgrass. They are unloading today in Idaho.

    FINDING THE EXTRA IN THE ORDINARY: YOU* REV. 3:1-6 CHRISTMAS SUNDAY INTRO Advent is as much about the second coming of Christ as it is the first.

    A brief message intended to serve as a transition from a choral concert of Advent music, featuring our children and youth choirs, to the Communion table.

    “He has brought down the powerful from their thrones, and lifted up the lowly.” Children bring things down. All sorts of things. Around our place we are learning that a ten-month-old can move very quickly and has a vice-like grasp. Things will come down if they are not moved beyond reach. But ...read more

    Jesus’ baptism is a transitional point in his life. In this lesson we answer the questions why was Jesus baptized and why must we be baptized.

Hopefully, as we have been meeting the Lord in praise and prayer and in communion, we continue to experience His transforming presence and power in our lives. 2.

    Jesus’ baptism was a transition from the tranquil world of his father’s carpenter shop into his Father’s world of kingdom building.

    My parents owned a small neighborhood grocery. Our house was located directly behind the store. As a child my world revolved around that store. People who bought their groceries there weren’t just customers, they were friends. The man who operated a road grader always stopped to drink a coke ...read more

    What is the missional church? How does a church transition to being missional? What do missional Christians look like and act like?

    Last week we started a new series called an elemental church. We looked at God’s dream for a church and talked a little about the dreams that we have for our community. In the past few years, the word missional has picked up some steam and become somewhat of a buzz word among pastors and ...read more

    From Medina to Mecca, transitions in Muhammad's thinking. More strange "Bible" stories. Muhammad's concept of who God is and what He does.

    Lesson 23, No Questions Allowed. Sura 5, called "The Table" As we move on, please take note here that so far, except for those few verses of Sura 1, everything you have heard, up to and including today's portion, was composed in Medina, and therefore, for the most part, has not been abrogated. ...read more

    In God’s good design, He created everyone as male or female.

    I want to begin this message called, “Gender Matters” with some ground rules and foundational points. 1. The topic we will be addressing may not be appropriate for younger children as I will be using terms some may not be ready to hear. 2. Normally, I like hearing “amens” when I’m preaching but ...read more

    This is the final in a series in the book of Nehemiah. This message transitions from the previous week vision commitments, to some simple steps to take towards fulfillment of that vision.

    We have made it. We have reached the end of our look at what really amounts to just the first third or so of the book of Nehemiah. In the middle of the book you obtain some names and listings related to the building and completion of the wall around Jerusalem, and then in the second half of the ...read more
