The observation is made that "Christianity is always one generation away from extinction." Faith is available to everyone, but each person has to accept God's offer of salvation for herself or himself. This speaks of the importance of communicating our faith to our children. The children in our family; the children in our church; the children of our world. Join Rev. George Fletcher as he shares what is required from us for our children to have faith.
After Jesus' resurrection he appeared to the disciples a couple of times. Despite their initial feelings of joy, they were unsure of what to do next. Perhaps dealing with depression, cynicism, or shame, they retreated to their former way of living. What do we do when our fondest dreams fall apart? Join Pastor Greg as he shares from this scripture what we can do when life is not making sense.
On the first evening after being resurrected, Jesus appeared to his disciples, but one disciple, Thomas, was not with them. Thomas would not take the others' word that Jesus had been raised from the dead. When Jesus appeared to them again a week later, Thomas was able to see for himself the resurrected Christ and proclaim, "My Lord and My God." But where was Thomas that first appearance? Why was he absent? What thoughts might Thomas have been wrestling with during that week? Join Pastor Greg as he shares how we might move forward with our lives when we feel like we've missed out on God's blessing in some way.
Happy Easter! Why Do You Look for the Living Among the Dead? Jesus just doesn't save us from our sins and promise that we'll be with him when we die, but he also promised to give us an abundant life on this earth as well. Join Pastor Greg as he shares how the resurrection story shows us how we can enjoy life to the fullest.
This Sunday we finish up our Lenten series, Preparing the Soil of the Soul. As we approach Holy Week we start to identify with the suffering and death of Jesus. The Apostle Paul came to the realization that the pain and suffering in his life led him into a deeper relationship with Jesus. Join Pastor Greg as he shares how our suffering and pain cultivates the soil of our soul and prepares us for the resurrection to come.
We continue with our Lenten series, Preparing the Soil of the Soul. The work of reconciliation lies at the heart of the Gospel. Join Pastor Greg as he shares how God initiated reconciliation with us and how we can prepare the soil of our soul by being preparing to accept and reproduce this reconciliation.
