SUMMARY:Virtual Coffee Talk with Pastor Dave
DESCRIPTION:There’s a lot going on in our world today – a lot to talk about! And worse yet\, there aren’t many opportunities to talk about it. How are you making sense of all that’s happening? Where are you sensing the movement of the Spirit in the midst of everything? What are you learning from others who see the world differently? \nWith all of this in mind\, Pastor Dave is inviting you to join him for a series of virtual coffee talks on Thursday mornings at 10 a.m. Like the fictional Liz Rosenberg made famous by Mike Myers\, we’ll start with a timely topic and create an open and safe space to ask questions and talk with others\, some of whom will disagree and agree with you. \nThe goal of the conversations is not to convince others to see the world as you do but to provide a place for sharing stories and listening to the stories of others. Whether we agree or disagree with someone will take a backseat to learn from each other’s experiences and discerning the movement of God. In the process\, our hope is to grow closer as a community and gain clarity in the ways that God is working and through our lives. \n\n\n\n\nJoin the Conversation on ZOOM

SUMMARY:Sunday Worship
DESCRIPTION:There is something about walking along the coast that facinates people. It is a unique boundary where two worlds collide: the world of animals that live on dry land and the world of iife that lives in the sea. Perhaps that’s why people are so intrigued by all of the shells and other items that can be found along the shore. It’s a glimpse into a world that is foreign and inaccessible to many of us. \nI too am guilty of having my head in the sand so to speak while walking along the beach\, keeping my eyes pealed on the objects that are down by my feet looking for one that just might catch my eye and gathering it up as soon as it does – items that the sea has discarded\, but that have become a treasure in the eyes of the beachcomber. \nWe often describe God as a divine Shepherd that leaves the 99 sheep who are safe to search for the one that is lost. This week\, we will give that image a different spin and explore the image of God as our Holy Beachcomber\, strolling along the shoreline and gathering us up as his treasures to be brought home for safe keeping. \nAs we do\, I invite you to think about your role in God’s work of salvation. As God has gathered you in and healed you\, how are you being sent out to gather others and offer them the healing and wholeness that only Jesus can give them? \nJoin us for worship online or in person this Sunday at 10 a.m.\, or stream it online when it’s convenient\, as we journey along the shore with Jesus to gather treasures for Safe Keeping. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Zoom\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Facebook Live\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Youtube

SUMMARY:Take a Walk in Faith during Lent
DESCRIPTION:How do we walk with Christ—daily follow him\, grow in him\, and faithfully serve him? In the Gospels\, Jesus modeled for us the Christian spiritual life. The apostles taught it in their writings. And the Church has\, through the last 2\,000 years\, sought to pursue this Christian spiritual life. \nIn The Walk\, Adam Hamilton focuses on five essential spiritual practices that are rooted in Jesus’ own walk with God and taught throughout the New Testament. Each of these practices is intended as part of our daily walk with Christ while also being an essential part of growing together in the church. \nStarting on February 24\, Pastor Dave will lead a 5 week online Bible study that explores these practices\, their New Testament foundations\, and what it looks like to pursue them daily in your personal life and together in the life of the church. Deepen your walk with Christ this Lent and join the conversation – contact Pastor Dave to sign up and get a copy of the book. \n\nTime of event is TBA \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI Want to Walk in Faith this Lent

SUMMARY:Sunday Worship
DESCRIPTION:This Sunday\, we will hear the story of a man who was cast out of the community and treated like trash\, but then restored in body and spirit by the grace of Christ.

SUMMARY:Ash Wednesday Service
DESCRIPTION:Each of us is created a precious and holy vessel of embodied love. We have been through a harrowing time since last Lent that has shattered our sense of wholeness–body\, mind\, and spirit–like a glass vessel fractured into pieces. This Lent\, we will observe a “season of recovery” for our physical\, communal\, mental\, intellectual\, and environmental health\, by exploring the healing narratives of Jesus that tell of divine solidarity with human suffering and remind us that we can begin a journey toward making something beautiful from that which is seemingly broken. Beach glass offers us a multifaceted symbol of this transformative process. \nWe will begin the season with an Ash Wednesday service on February 17 at 7 p.m. Ash Wednesday is a time of naming brokenness. As we enter the season of Lent\, we commit to enter also into a season of healing and recovery that requires the naming of what has been shattered as a first step. We take “the yoke” of responsibility as disciples of Jesus to be the Body of Christ–a body of those who need healing and offer healing in the world. The promise of Jesus is that he is with us in our weariness and burdens. \nPlease note that due to the ongoing pandemic ashes will not be imposed as part of this service. Instead\, we will look at the ways that the elements of creation mold and shape us from dust to dust. The service will be available online as well as in person. \nPlease take a look at our COVID-19 Guidelines before attending the service: \n\n\n\nRead our Reopening Guidelines

SUMMARY:Sunday Worship
DESCRIPTION:One day\, Sir Isaac Newton was resting in the shade of an apple tree\, when one of the most important aha! moments in history literally hit him over the head. As an apple fell out of the tree\, his curiosity was peaked about the way that the apples fell. He observed that an apple will always fall perpendicularly from its tree. This realization led him to further investigate the forces that caused this to happen\, which led him to eventually uncover the law of gravity. Of course\, Newton didn’t discover this all in one day. There were many discoveries and studies that led to this day\, and many more that came as a result of that day. \nOur journey of epiphany has been one of discovery about Jesus’ identity and purpose in our lives and in our world. Over the course of these 6 weeks\, we have understood Jesus to be a newborn king come to reign over the nations\, God’s son with whom he is well pleased\, one who knows us better than we know ourselves and calls us to disentangle ourselves from the world as we know it. We’ve learned that he speaks with the authority of God\, and that he has the power to lift us up from all that holds us down and resurrect us to new life. \nLike the newly called disciples\, we have grown in our awareness of the spiritual nature of our Lord and Savior\, but perhaps we haven’t been able to put it all together. This Sunday\, the disciples will put the pieces together as they go on a mountain retreat with their teacher. Like Newton’s encounter with the apple\, they will come to see Jesus in a whole new light as he is transfigured before them. Once this happens\, they will never see things in the same way. \nJoin us for live worship online this Sunday at 10 a.m.\, or recorded and ready for you when it’s convenient\, as Rev. Dr. Vicki Brendler leads us in the story of Jesus’ Transfiguration and the many ways that it opens our eyes to see Jesus in a whole new light. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Zoom\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Facebook Live\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Youtube

SUMMARY:Virtual Coffee Talk with Pastor Dave
DESCRIPTION:There’s a lot going on in our world today – a lot to talk about! And worse yet\, there aren’t many opportunities to talk about it. How are you making sense of all that’s happening? Where are you sensing the movement of the Spirit in the midst of everything? What are you learning from others who see the world differently? \nWith all of this in mind\, Pastor Dave is inviting you to join him for a series of virtual coffee talks on Thursday mornings at 10 a.m. Like the fictional Liz Rosenberg made famous by Mike Myers\, we’ll start with a timely topic and create an open and safe space to ask questions and talk with others\, some of whom will disagree and agree with you. \nThe goal of the conversations is not to convince others to see the world as you do but to provide a place for sharing stories and listening to the stories of others. Whether we agree or disagree with someone will take a backseat to learn from each other’s experiences and discerning the movement of God. In the process\, our hope is to grow closer as a community and gain clarity in the ways that God is working and through our lives. \n\n\n\n\nJoin the Conversation on ZOOM

SUMMARY:Sunday Worship
DESCRIPTION:Americans have discovered new pastimes in recent months: searching for the elusive COVID vaccine and waiting in long lines to get them (hopefully). Ever since the first vaccines were approved and made available in our country in December\, people have been clamoring to try and be the next person in line to get their shot. \nUnfortunately\, most have been frustrated in their attempts. Appointments fill up as quickly as they become available. Friends are telling friends the minute they hear of vaccines becoming available\, and yet when they try to get them\, they find out that the good lead they followed dried up. And yet we know that people are still receiving vaccines and more are being produced\, and so continue to wait for it to be our turn. \nThis weekend\, as we come towards the end of the season of Epiphanies\, we will hear the story of Jesus coming to Peter’s home\, where he encounters his ailing mother in law. We’re told that Jesus lifted her up\, curing her of her illness and in response\, crowd began to gather at Peter’s doorstep so that Jesus could heal them too. \nSo where are the throngs of people that hunted and searched for Jesus like they did so long ago? Are you still waiting on the Lord to lift you up on wings like eagles? Why or why not? Join us for worship live this Sunday at 10 a.m. as we continue our journey of Epiphanies and reaffirm why it is that we are still Waiting on the Lord. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you want to attend with us online. You can attend through ZOOM\, Facebook\, or Youtube! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Zoom\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Facebook Live\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Youtube

SUMMARY:Faith Conversations
DESCRIPTION:Tired of spending too much time on your own? The Christian faith was never intended to be a solitary affair! Why not grow in fath in the company of others? \nOur church hosts a midweek Bible study every Wednesday at 7 p.m. on Zoom. This is a great opportunity to explore your faith in the company of others who are also seeking to grown in their knowledge of God. No prior knowledge is needed – no exams will be given (at least not by Pastor Dave). \nThrough February 3\, we will be exploring the book of Exodus. During Lent\, we will take a look at the key practices of our faith that lead to growth using Adam Hamilton’s “The Walk”. And after Easter\, we will begin a 6 week look at the Book of Acts. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin the Conversation

SUMMARY:Online Sunday Worship
DESCRIPTION:What’s the difference between an author and a publisher? A teacher\, and a student? When the people at the Texas Children’s Hospital wanted to attract doctors and patients to their facility\, they created an ad that spoke volumes about why people should choose them: they wrote the book. \nAn author of a non-fiction book is someone who knows their subject matter so well that they are able to write the manual on how to do it: doctors who have explored new life saving techniques\, scientists who discovered new theories or new compounds\, mechanics who invented machines or new ways of keeping machines in top performance\, actors who have perfected their art… You get the gist. The authors are the authorities or subject matter experts who literally wrote the book on how to do something. The publisher is the one who prints the book. The student is the one who studies the book. \nWhen I was in seminary\, I was often blessed to be in class with the professors who wrote the books on theology\, Biblical interpretation\, Christian mission\, and so on. When I chose my classes\, I sought out the people who wrote the book rather than the students who merely studied the book because I knew they would know their subjects the best. Likewise\, when you seek out a doctor or a mechanic\, when you find the person who wrote the book\, you know you are in good hands. \nThis Sunday\, as we continue our journey of discovery during Epiphany\, we will come to learn from the One who speaks with authority\, because he literally wrote the book. As we do\, we’ll come to explore yet another way that we can tell that the kingdom of God is near: the demons are running. \nJoin us for live worship Sunday at 10 a.m. as we continue our journey of Epiphanies and discover the difference it makes When the Author Reads the Book. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Zoom\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Facebook Live\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorship on Youtube

He only is my rock and my salvation; He is my defense; I shall not be moved. In God is my salvation and my glory; The rock of my strength\, And my refuge\, is in God. Trust in Him at all times\, you people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us. Selah Surely men of low degree are a vapor\, Men of high degree are a lie; If they are weighed on the scales\, They are altogether lighter than vapor. Do not trust in oppression\, Nor vainly hope in robbery; If riches increase\, Do not set your heart on them. God has spoken once\, Twice I have heard this: That power belongs to God. Also to You\, O Lord\, belongs mercy; For You render to each one according to his work.” \nGospel: Mark 1:14-20: “After John was put in prison\, Jesus went into Galilee\, proclaiming the good news of God. “The time has come\,” he said. “The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!” As Jesus walked beside the Sea of Galilee\, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake\, for they were fishermen. “Come\, follow me\,” Jesus said\, “and I will send you out to fish for people.” At once they left their nets and followed him. When he had gone a little farther\, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John in a boat\, preparing their nets. Without delay he called them\, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed him.”

Everyone who is facing a challenging situation in their life and needs to know that God is with them. \nWhether you are going through a loss\, a difficult time at work\, facing difficult decisions\, our trained Stephen Ministers are ready to journey with you and help you to listen for God’s still small voice guiding you every step of the way. \nBeginning in 2021\, we are thrilled to share that Barbara Dwiggins has been installed as the new leader of our Stephen Ministry. So whether you would like to see if a Stephen Minister is right for your situation\, or you would like to be a caring presence for others as a Stephen Minister\, we encourage you to reach out to Barbara to learn more. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nContact Barbara
