Pray Anyway

As Jesus spends his final days in Jerusalem, the religious leaders are doing everything they can to trap him in his words and turn the crowds against him. But once again, Jesus turns their carefully crafted trap into a powerful lesson about what it really means to live as a citizen of God's Kingdom.

Guest speaker, Rev. Kevin James brings us a special message to celebrate our 195th Founder's Day.

The religious leaders have confronted Jesus in regards to his overturning the tables in the temple asking, "What gives you the right to do these things?" "What gives you the authority?" Join Pastor Greg as he reviews the authority of Jesus laid out in scripture and shows how Jesus transferred that authority onto his disciples and his followers today.

Politics is everywhere, and it has a way of stirring up strong opinions, dividing people, and competing for our loyalty. But what if, instead of allowing our politics to shape the way we follow Jesus, we allowed Jesus to challenge--and shape--the way we do politics? Join Pastor Greg as he shows us through Luke's account of Jesus entering Jerusalem how this can be done.

It's possible to be close to Jesus, cheer for Jesus, and even call ourselves followers of Jesus--and still miss who he really is and what he is doing right in front of us. As Jesus enters Jerusalem, the cheering crowd reminds us to ask an important question: What are we missing?

What do you do when the boss is away and no one seems to be watching? In Luke 19.11-27, Jesus reminds us that our King may seem to be away, but he has given us work to do---and one day he return to see what we've done with what he entrusted to us.
