Living Christmas, Week 1 // The Rev. Dr. Sally Campbell-Evans // Nov. 29, 2020
November 29, 2020 17:00 - 13 minutes - 9.46 MBThe practical message here comes from verses 16-19: “Rejoice always. Pray continually. Give thanks in every situation because this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. Don’t suppress the Spirit. 1 Thessalonians is one of the earliest epistles from Paul, and therefore one of the first New Testament books written. It emerged relatively soon after the birth of the church, when the first Christians were living in hope and expectation of the imminent return of Jesus.
Step Into This Story, Week 3 // The Rev. Magrey deVega // Nov. 22, 2020
November 22, 2020 17:00 - 14 minutes - 9.77 MBIn his letter, Paul reminds members of the church in Ephesus to be characterized by unity, because there is unity in the Godhead. It also reminds us that even today, we can be part of the great unfolding story of God’s love. On this Commitment Sunday, we will be sharing our Estimate of Giving Cards as a tangible and practical way for us to “each do our part.” Regardless of the size of our estimate, know that together, in unity, God can use us to make a profound impact on the world.

We remember that because of God’s love, we can respond in generosity and self-sacrifice for the world. And one of the ways that we can grow deeper in ou...

November 08, 2020 17:00 - 14 minutes - 10.4 MBAncestry, Week 2 // The Rev. Magrey deVega // Nov. 1, 2020
November 01, 2020 16:00 - 12 minutes - 8.84 MBThis Sunday, we will remember those in our congregation who passed away in the past year. This year, we remember them in the scriptural context of Acts 15. The new church had reached a crossroads of identity, in which it had to decide whether to adhere strictly to Jewish custom and practice, or make allowance for Gentiles to follow Jesus without becoming cultural Jews. As we remember the saints of the church, we see in them reminders of how they modeled such love and grace, and remind us tha...
