Family Resemblance: A People of Repentance – Epiphany Season, January 22, 2023

January 23, 2023 / Sunday service /

Amos 3:1-11
Psalm 139:1-18
1 Corinthians 1:10-17
Matthew 4:12-22

Welcome to Worship! January 22, 2023

Jesus' first teaching was "Repent". The call to repentance has been constatnly part of the church for our entire history - but what does it mean? Does it make sense to yell it? The People of God are a people of repentance. We are ready to admit our faults, change our direction, and follow our Lord together. Repentance brings us to God, brings us together, and keeps us together. *This is part 2 of the "Family Resemblance" sermon series.

Family Resemblance: A People of Jesus – Epiphany Season, January 15, 2023

January 17, 2023 / Sunday service /

Exodus 12:21-28
Psalm 40:1-9
1 Corinthians 1:1-9
John 1:29-42

Welcome to Worship! January 15, 2023

The People of God are a people of Jesus! We are kicking off a new series this week, looking at the family resemblance of the family of God. Our faith unites us, and should grow us all in the same direction, so that we have similarities to one another, because we are all like Jesus. It begins with faith. The exclusive claims of Jesus as the means of salvation are the basis of the Christian faith. In today's sermon, we examine those claims made in John 1, and affirmed in 1 Corinthians 1.

Strong and Meek – The Season of Epiphany, January 8, 2023

January 9, 2023 / Sunday service /

Isaiah 42:1-9
Psalm 89:20-29
Acts 10:34-38
Matthew 3:13-17

Welcome to Worship! January 8, 2023

Who am I? It's a fundamental question that all of us ask, and our answers will shape the way we interact with the world. The prophet Isaiah spoke of a Servant of God (Jesus) that would overthrow oppressors and gently raise up the hurting. How can He be both strong and meek? The answer lies in His understanding of the divine call and idenity. In the same way, our own understanding of God's call and identity will give us confidence to be both strong and meek as the situation requires. We're so glad you've joined us for today's sermon! If you can use prayer or have questions, please send a message to the facebook page or use the contact page on our church website.

Real Housewives of Matthew 1: Mary – Christmas Eve, December 24, 2022

December 30, 2022 / Sunday service /

Luke 1:39-55

Welcome to Worship - Merry Christmas!

We're so glad you're joining us to celebrate the birth of Christ! This pre-recorded message was shared at our Christmas Eve service. Mary, the mother of God, is the fifth and final woman in Matthew's geneology of Jesus. Her story is full of scandal and intrigue. Once again, God uses an outsider to turn the world upside down and deliver the fulfillment of His promise. We see in the Magnificat (Luke 1), that Mary knew, even at the end of her first trimester, that God was doing something remarkable.

Isaiah 7:10-17
Psalm 24
Romans 1:1-7
Matthew 1:18-25

Welcome to Worship! December 18, 2022

Jesus' family historically had a lot of messy situations. Perhaps the messiest was the life and lineage of King David. As we wrap up the Old Testament section of our series, we take a look at Bathsheba - a woman who survived assault, her husband's murder, her baby's death, and the threats on her own life. Yet, she became the queen mother of Israel, with her son, Solomon, on the throne. She was just hoping to recover - but God had bigger plans. We're so glad you've joined us today! #sttimsvt

Isaiah 35:1-10
Psalm 146
James 5:7-20
Matthew 11:2-19

Welcome To Worship - December 11, 2022

The Story of Ruth is the story of faithfulness - God's faithfulness to His people, and people's faithfulness to God. After the famine, Naomi, Ruth, Boaz, and others had to make a lot of major decisions, and they serve as an example to us. They chose what was right over what was profitable. And the Lord blessed their faithfulness, making their descendant, David, the king of Israel, and their later descendant, Jesus, the King of the kings. Thanks for worshiping with us today!

Welcome to Worship - 2nd Sunday of Advent, December 4, 2022

God used an outsider to deliver the promised land! As we continue our series, looking at the five women in Matthew's geneology of Jesus, we come to Joshua 2. Rahab the prostitute is held up in the Old Testament, Gospel, and New Testament as an example of faith, lived out in works. The outsider is used to deliver God's promise, and to teach us about what faith really looks like! We're so glad you're worshiping with us today!

Isaiah 2:1-5
Psalm 122
Romans 13:8-14
Matthew 24:29-44

Welcome to Advent Worship! November 27, 2022

Matthew's gospel begins with e geneology of Jesus, which includes five women. Their stories are full of drama, power, intrugue, greed, and family. This Advent, we are learning about them, and how they prefigure the salvation brought about in Jesus. The first woman is Tamar, whose story is in Genesis 38. It's a mess. The family is a mess. Everyone's choices are a mess. Yet, God uses her to save the family that will be the tribe that rules Israel.

Colossians 1:11-20
Luke 23:35-43

Welcome to Worship! November 20. 2022

Christ is King! As we close out the church year, Fr. Micah shares a tool for discernment. How do we know what the Lord is saying? In what direction should we grow? Jeremiah the prophet promises that in God's Kingdom, we are fruitful and multiply - and what does that have to do with making decisions?
