Worship Unboxed
Nov. 3-24, 2024
Worship is much more than a Sunday morning worship gathering. Throughout this series, we will discover that we don’t need — or even WANT — to keep worship “boxed in.” Instead, we will explore what it looks like to see worship in all its fulness and richness — its pulse, posture, practice, and potential.
Motion Sickness
Oct. 6-27, 2024
The hurried pace of life today often leaves us feeling overwhelmed and under-nourished. Our to-do lists seem endless, and our schedules are crammed full. We may not realize the havoc this wreaks on our souls. As followers of Jesus, it is imperative we recognize that such a pace robs us of peace. Let's intentionally choose our speed, slowing down enough to catch up with God, ourselves, and others.
Fully Formed
Aug. 4-Sept. 29, 2024
When we put the teachings of Jesus into practice, He says our lives are like a well-built house. He also says that when we cultivate a relationship with Him our lives are like a fruitful vine. In this series, we're looking at the Christlike virtues of we're called to develop, the fruit the Spirit produces, and the rhythms and practices needed to grow them — the real life and beautiful benefits of the spiritual transformation Christ brings.
Summer in the OT: Jonah
July 7-28, 2024
It may be a familiar story you think you know, but the book of Jonah is full of surprises and plot twists. Join us as we see how God shows up in unexpected ways, among unexpected people and creatures, and among us.
Summer in the OT: Joseph
June 2-30, 2024
What does the life of Joseph teach us about the character of God? Joseph is a much less flawed character than others in his family history, and the suffering he endures is largely unjust and undeserved. Again and again, God uses the evil intended by man to bring about His ultimate good.
Undivided
May 5-26, 2024
We are disciples of Jesus living in a world of divisive politics, culture wars, and the influence of Christian nationalism...and all this during an election year. It can be easy to let such things divide our hearts and minds, as well as divide us from each other. In this series, we'll explore what it means to be in this world but not of it, as the Bible describes. And we'll resolve to represent Christ and love others well.
When Church Hurts
April 7-28, 2024
Many of us have been hurt at the very place where we're meant to find healing — the church. In this series we're addressing spiritual abuse, religious trauma, and church hurt head-on. When we give these important subjects the thoughtful, prayerful attention and biblical examination they deserve, we can find our way back to church and let the Lord heal us beautifully.
Consider Jesus
March 3-31, 2024
In these weeks leading to and including Good Friday and Easter, we will turn our thoughts toward Jesus, reflecting deeply on the wonder of who He was and is, the beauty of how He lived, the wisdom of what He taught, and the greatness of all He gave.
Love Your Neighbor
Feb. 4-25, 2024
Right next to loving God, Jesus said the best thing we can do is love our neighbor. And through His life and teaching, He showed us how to do that — highlighting the fact that one of the greatest things we can do for others in introduce them to Him. But sharing our faith isn't easy for most of us (it may even freak us out a bit.) So, in this series we're going to explore how to love our neighbors well and lovingly, respectfully show them Jesus while we do.
Our Outlook
Jan. 7-28, 2024
Since 1866, our congregation has been devoted to one simple aim: following Jesus together. We believe there's beauty (and a lot of health) in doing this simply and in warmly welcoming everyone and anyone to join us. With the holy Scriptures as our guide and the love of Chirst as our fuel, we see a bright future for our church family. In this series we’re enthusiastically reminding ourselves who we are — and Whose we are — what we're all about, and how to enjoy our journey.
