Awaiting the return of Jesus 

“Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgement, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him.” Hebrews 9: 27-28. 

Pastoral Thoughts - April 24th, 2019

Glimpses of Grace and Truth...I want to go back to something I briefly mentioned Sunday: the difference between a dead hero and a Living Lord. We all know the names of many dead heroes like Abraham Lincoln and Mother Teresa, Martin Luther and Martin Luther King, Jr., national military leaders and local school teachers. For each one of those, we remember things they said, what they did and even pass on their wisdom to others. We might even have a day set aside to remember them. But Easter was meant to be a day set aside, not for a dead hero, but for the Living Lord.

A Note From Our Music Director - April 17th, 2019

“When In Our Music God Is Glorified” 

We are in the midst of Holy Week. We began our journey last Sunday as we waived our palm branches and shouted “Hosanna!” “Blessed is the One who comes in the name of the LORD!” How quickly this parade turns into the darkest day in history. I hope that you have been able to come to the church this week (or will by Saturday) and pray through the Stations of the Cross. This truly humbling reminder of Jesus’s last hours on earth, from the Garden as he prayed alone to being laid in the tomb, is a transformative glimpse into what our Lord suffered.
