Advent Series 2019
December 1-22
The Call of Christmas series is more than just the story of Jesus’ arrival. Through the stories of Zechariah, Mary, Joseph, and the shepherds, we’re each given a call to prepare, a call to provide, a call to protect, and a call to praise. Let us prepare our hearts for a celebration of the arrival of Jesus!
Past Messages
A Series on Stewardship
November 3-24
During the month of November, a lot of people take time to reflect on the blessings in their life. We even have a national holiday of Thanksgiving. As Christians, we know the One that we are giving thanks to. He is the fountain of every blessing we have. God gives us his blessings for a reason – to provide for our needs and to give us what we need to be a blessing to others. God overflows his blessings into our lives and we get to overflow those blessings into the lives of others. When we trust in God to provide for us even when we give back to him, it is an overflow of our faith. God promises that when we use what we have to bless others, it will result in an overflow of thanksgiving to Him!
September 15-October 27
Our next message series will be focused on all types of households: single, have a roommate, newly married, have 2.5 kids, divorced, single parent, empty nesters, growing old together, or widowed.
Barna and Lutheran Hour Ministries have partnered together to answer this one question: What do spiritually vibrant families have in common. Their research discovered some simple rhythms, routines, and relationships that we can all do, regardless of our background, ethnicity, or household make up. By putting these into practice, we can all create a home environment that is conducive to encouraging spiritual growth.

Charles Dickens begins his classic, A Tale of Two Cities, saying, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” This is not only a synopsis of the time before the French Revolution, it is a synopsis of all history. Every time carries with it good and bad. The book of Genesis explains why this is the case. Ever since sin entered the world, the best and the worst have locked horns. The book of Genesis looks at the tension between the best and the worst and offers hope that the best is yet to come.

Love is…
Lent is a season that calls us to reflect on the great love that Christ has for us – a love so great that it moved Him to die. We, of course, are not only to reflect on Christ’s love, but reflect out His love to the world. As Jesus Himself commands: “Just as I have loved you, you are also to love one another” (John 13:34). In this series, we look at some of the ways we can reflect Jesus’ love, using Paul’s description of what love is from 1 Corinthians 13.

Epiphany
Lectionary
Jesus says in John 8:12: “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
As we enter the season of Epiphany, we are reminded that only Jesus brings light to our dark and sinful world. Join us for worship as we walk through this season together, following Jesus. We will take a closer look at the light of Christ, growing in faith as we let His light shine through us, bringing praise to God our Father!

Gather with us in worship this advent season and be filled with the light of Christ each week, so that His light would spill forth from our lives into the lives of those around us. We are blessed to be a blessing unto others! Let’s SHARE WHAT MATTERS this Christmas: the hope, love, joy and peace of Christ.
Due to the inclement weather, Pastor Poulson
has written a short devotional covering Share Love.
