The Lord's Prayer
July 31, 2022 14:00 - 43 minutesAs we continue the journey with Jesus and towards Jesus, we recognize that the discipline of prayer is of upmost importance. The Lord’s prayer is a prayer of recalibration that sets our hearts in line with the kingdom that Jesus is establishing on earth in and through his followers. In our gathering this week, we take time to slowly and intentionally move through the Lord’s prayer so that our hearts might be aligned with Him as we ask Him to do a reviving work in us.
Shema
July 31, 2022 14:00Obedience is not exactly a popular concept in today’s world, yet the Bible is filled with stories and commands of God calling people into difficult realities that they would not naturally choose. Yet God desires more than begrudging obedience. Let’s discover God’s heart for us and how it is only out of a secure and loving attachment with God that we can truly listen and obey his voice.
Where our Revival Exists
July 24, 2022 14:00 - 46 minutesWe should not do things for Jesus simply to get things from Jesus. We should come to Jesus and then go with Jesus. Why? Because our gift is Jesus. Our “enough” is Jesus. Remember who He is and what He has done because that’s where the revival of our souls exists; in Him alone!
Through the Waters
July 24, 2022 14:00Throughout the Scriptures the people of God are moved by Him through the chaotic waters and wastelands into a land of peace and promise, together let’s discover the beauty of how baptism is instituted to be an external visual reminder of this inward reality.
Long Obedience In The Same Direction
July 17, 2022 14:00 - 49 minutesFor many, the Christian life is thought to be one impactful religious experience after another, leading to the pursuit of the next spiritual high and disdain for the in-between. That is not the Way of Jesus. The life of a disciple is not meant to be lived like a tourist who is jumping from one adventure to the next, but instead like a pilgrim who is journeying towards a wondrous destination. The pilgrimage we travel will lead to the joys of heaven, but the beauty isn’t simply found in where w...
The King's Invitation
July 10, 2022 14:00 - 51 minutesOur all-sufficient King Jesus invites us to a table that is rich with goodness and full of everlasting satisfaction. Though we are undeserving, broken, and lame we are made sons and daughters of the King and He has called us by name to feast at His table. What a beautiful invitation!
Trusting in God’s Goodness
July 03, 2022 14:00 - 43 minutesThe Scriptures teach that the way of Jesus leads to a different kind of life than most of us experience—one characterized by freedom, joy, peace, hope, and rest. Jesus calls it “life abundantly.” This life is a gift from God, but it requires us to say no to many things our culture promotes as the way to happiness. But, living in a counter-cultural way, saying no to what is easy takes discipline and commitment. The only way we can exercise the self-control it takes to fully embrace God’s more ...
Gentle and Lowly
July 03, 2022 14:00Every person has their own description of who they say Jesus us, but how does he describe Him and what difference should that make in our understanding of Him and our lives? In this message, we will focus on what it means that Jesus describes Himself by saying that at the core of His being He is “gentle and lowly” and why this is good news for weary and worried hearts.
The Joy of Salvation
June 26, 2022 14:00 - 54 minutesThe Scriptures make it clear that we were once dead in our sins but God’s gift of grace makes us alive in Christ. This miraculous saving work of God is something that should leave us standing in great awe, yet we oftentimes find ourselves like David in Psalm 51 where we need to cry out to God to restore to us the joy of his salvation. Salvation, more than anything else gives us reason to celebrate, to rejoice, to sing, to shout and to dance. When the dead are made alive, we join in with heave...
The Fear of the Lord
June 25, 2022 14:00We each have things we fear, some come to pass, some never become reality, but the question is what do we do with them? In the book of Exodus, we discover a story calling the nation of Israel out of fear by instead receiving the fear of the Lord. How can you combat fear with fear? What does that look like? Let’s journey together in this story and see how the fear of the Lord leads us to greater love, joy, and intimacy with God.
Heart of Desperation
June 19, 2022 14:00 - 43 minutesThe narrative God writes throughout the Bible is the story of a loving Father who wants to give His kids the greatest gift ever—which happens to be Himself. In His kindness, He wired us to be dependent upon Him for every breath so that we would stay constantly connected to the gift. Without God, we’d cease to exist and that understanding is the foundation we need to fuel the fire of our unquenchable need for him.
Catching His Breath
June 12, 2022 14:00 - 41 minutesWe need to slow down and catch our breath…rather…catch His breath. We need a supernatural move of God to renew, restore, and revive us. That is not something we can muster up in our own strength. We cannot force God’s hand…so instead, we let go, release control and draw near to Him, because the one necessary thing in life is to sit at the feet of our King Jesus and receive from Him whatever it is He has for us there.
Philippians 4:21-23
June 05, 2022 14:00 - 46 minutesAs we conclude the book of Philippians we look back to recognize the incredible wonder of how God has gifted the church with this incredible letter to the church in Philippi. What grace it is from God to remind us that we are now living as joyful citizens of a new kingdom. And that because heaven is our home, our contentment is not found in our present circumstances but in the transcendence of knowing Christ our Lord.
Philippians 4:14-20
May 29, 2022 14:00 - 54 minutesThis week we see the incredible impact that is made when the people of God choose to sacrificially partner together to make the gospel known. Paul expresses his gratitude to the Philippian church for their consistent, generous investment in the Kingdom, and his confidence in a faithfully sufficient God to meet all of our needs.
Philippians 4:10-13
May 22, 2022 14:00 - 49 minutesThe invitation of the book of Philippians is to be joyful in light of the gospel despite our circumstances. Though we often rate the quality of our lives by our circumstances, God’s kingdom provides us another way when we recognize that God has already provided for what we truly need. Then we can accept our circumstances with joy, because we can do everything through Christ who gives us strength.
Philippians 4:8-9
May 15, 2022 14:00 - 51 minutesAfter Paul encourages the followers of Jesus to cast their anxieties on Jesus through prayer, he turns our attention to our thought life and highlights the way of the kingdom of Christ. As we think the way Jesus calls us to think, we begin to live according to the new way of the kingdom He is establishing in and through His people.
Philippians 4:1-7
May 08, 2022 14:00 - 34 minutesThroughout life, we are confronted with a variety of conflicts and struggles. Whether the struggles are internal or interpersonal, how we respond when they arise matters greatly. In this week’s passage, Paul invites us to stand firm in the Lord, to rejoice in the Lord, and to pray to the Lord and then see the peace of the Lord guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 3:17-21
May 01, 2022 14:00 - 48 minutesThis week we jump back into our series on the book of Philippians and explore what it looks like to live in this world as citizens of another. Though we are regularly bombarded with false gospels and the temptation to buy into them, there is one true gospel and one true Savior who secures our eternity and will come back to bring his people home.
The Ascension
April 24, 2022 14:00 - 45 minutesAs we conclude our Easter series, “Every knee shall bow”, we look at the events after the resurrection where Jesus appeared to his disciples and clarified the truth of who he is. These 40 days culminated when he gave the Great Commission and ascended into heaven to sit down at the right hand of the Father, signifying his kingship and authority over all creation. And we, his followers, are sent to declare the incredible wonder of who he is to the ends of the earth.
The Resurrection
April 17, 2022 14:00 - 53 minutesIt is finished! On this Easter Sunday, we take time to line the streets to celebrate the reality Christ Jesus is victorious over sin and death. He is the conquering Lion and the sacrificial Lamb whose resurrection proclaims salvation and eternal life! This Easter, we celebrate that Jesus is the King of kings and the Lord of lords. He is the Christ and at his name EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW, IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH, AND UNDER THE EARTH, and every tongue confess that he is Lord to the Glory of God the...
The Cross
April 15, 2022 14:00 - 41 minutesIt is finished. On this Good Friday, we take time to ponder the reality Christ was exalted through his humiliation, and that EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW in heaven, on earth, and under the earth. Even as the enemy of God was reveling in his “victory”, Jesus is victorious! The Son of Man was lifted up, and now hope is fulfilled with his final breath. He is the conquering Lion and the sacrificial Lamb whose blood proclaims salvation!
The Triumphal Entry
April 10, 2022 14:00 - 44 minutesWe begin this Easter series by considering the events leading up to Jesus’ arrival to Jerusalem from 3 vantage points – heaven, earth, and under the Earth. We discover how every step of the way was ordained by God, nothing was merely circumstantial. Even a simple donkey was specifically preserved for this absolute declaration of the Messiah arriving to establish His throne and rescue His people.
Philippians 3:12-16
April 03, 2022 14:00 - 42 minutesThe calling on our lives is to press on towards the goal of knowing Jesus and living for Him. The motivation for reaching this goal by running this race is that Jesus has already laid hold of us, and has run the race before us! Every day we must recognize that we have not yet arrived at the fullness of the knowledge of Jesus or the fullness of growing in the likeness of Christ, but that each step we take in this journey matters deeply in this life and in our eternal future.
Philippians 3:7-11
March 27, 2022 14:00 - 44 minutesWe continue our journey through Philippians as Paul highlights his discovery of the utmost importance of knowing Jesus, recognizing the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ beyond all else. Because of this discovery, Paul was able to lose everything he had gained prior to Christ. Instead of counting his losses as losses, he counted them as gain because of the opportunity he had to know Christ in the midst of suffering loss, leading to an experience of His resurrection power.
Philippians 3:1-7
March 20, 2022 14:00 - 46 minutesThe journey through Philippians has been an incredible opportunity to see the goodness of what Jesus has accomplished on our behalf. In this passage, Paul highlights the beauty of the gospel that is found when we recognize only the good of what Jesus has done for us is worth placing our confidence in, knowing that gaining Christ is by far the most important thing in this life.
Philippians 2:25-30
March 13, 2022 14:00 - 45 minutesPaul is calling the Church to a simple-to-understand but difficult-to-follow command, “Your attitude should be the same as Jesus”. In order to actually do this, we need to look at each other as examples and honor those among us who live in service of others for the sake of the gospel.
Philippians 2:19-24
March 06, 2022 14:00 - 37 minutesPaul has been showing the church examples to follow and emulate, beginning with the example of Jesus, who humbly served for our salvation. After pointing out His own example, He moves to the example of Timothy who emulates Christ’s character by showing genuine concern for the Philippian church. What a beautiful picture of the God we serve, who shows genuine concern for our lives in every circumstance! And when we recognize that He is intimately involved in every area of our lives, every circu...
Philippians 2:14-18
February 27, 2022 14:00 - 55 minutesPaul’s letter to the Philippian church has focused our view of life through the lens of Christ’s attitude of life, who lived a life of humble servitude for our salvation. Now Paul points us in the direction of how we interact with one another in our attitudes as we display the beauty of the gospel in our relationships, leading to peace and harmony which brings glory to God.
Laying Down Stones
February 20, 2022 14:00For 10 years, God has been moving through life and community of Mosaic at WDW and His faithfulness has been evident every step of the way. As we celebrate all that God has done over the last 10 years, let’s discover how each story builds on top of the last, like stones laid on top of one another, to give us both a constant reminder of God’s faithfulness, as well as allow us to confidentially boldly move into the future discovering His faithfulness in the stories yet to unfold!
Philippians 2:12-13
February 20, 2022 14:00 - 36 minutesPaul is encouraging us, in view of who Jesus is and what He’s done for us, to press on in our pursuit to live out our salvation. We’ll discover that this is not an endless requirement to do good works, but is rather a call to respond and participate by aligning our will with God’s, as His new creation in Christ.
Philippians 2:9-11
February 13, 2022 14:00 - 37 minutesAs we continue our journey through Philippians and conclude the Christ Hymn of Christ’s nature, the God-man who humbled Himself completely for our redemption, yet it was through that humiliation that God exalted Jesus by giving Him the name above every other name, giving Jesus the name YHWH. And it is at that name that every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is LORD. This weekend we celebrate this extraordinary reality.
Every Moment Celebration
February 06, 2022 14:00 - 59 minutesIn recognition that every moment of our lives can be lived by Jesus, through Jesus, and for Jesus, Mosaic embarked on a journey of generosity that has led us to participate with God in some incredible stories, even in the midst of a global pandemic! This Sunday, we celebrate the ways God proved Himself to be faithful as we partnered with Him in faithful generosity to see the incredible impact in our church community and throughout the world.
Justice & Mercy
January 30, 2022 14:00 - 47 minutesThis year for Justice and Mercy weekend, we gathered as a church for the NOMORE Orphans experience. Through the call of scripture and encountering the stories of people who have engaged in caring for vulnerable children, we recognize we all have been invited into the story to play our part together.
Philippians 2:5-8
January 23, 2022 14:00 - 45 minutesPaul is inviting Christ-followers to live in a manner worthy of the gospel by setting our minds on the way of our King Jesus, who laid aside His rights to take on human flesh and demonstrated humility to the point of death on a cross. If Jesus our king can humbly treat us, we can follow his example to treat each other likewise.
Philippians 2:1-5
January 16, 2022 14:00 - 43 minutesAs we step back into the book of the Philippians, we are invited into living in a manner worthy of the gospel producing unity together as citizens of a new Kingdom.
Living on Mission at WDW and Beyond
January 09, 2022 14:00In this message, we learn from two current Cast Members about what God has taught them about living on mission @ WDW and beyond!
Vision 2022: Turning the Page
January 09, 2022 14:00 - 47 minutesThis year, as we step into Vision Sunday 2022, while we acknowledge the difficulty that 2020-2021 has presented we are invited to reorient our hearts around the goodness of God by engaging with his Word and pursuing Him in the midst of any and every circumstance. We are reminded as we have now entered 2022, we do not enter in with a hope that things are going to be better, but instead with confidence that we can call back to mind who God is, and who we are to each other. We will focus now on ...
Epiphany Sunday
January 02, 2022 14:00 - 27 minutesThis week we conclude our Christmas series with a bonus week: Epiphany! As we look into the story of the Wisemen visiting Jesus, we recognize the beauty of God’s invitation for all nations to come and worship Jesus, and recognize that He is truly worthy of it all!
Love
December 24, 2021 14:00 - 35 minutesJesus is the light of the world, and His light is not far off because He has come near. He is Emmanuel. As we stare into the manger scene this Christmas Eve to welcome the birth of our Savior, we hear the words of God whisper to our hearts, “I am right here with you.”
Peace
December 19, 2021 14:00 - 54 minutesAs we continue our journey through the advent season we recognize that peace can often be elusive in our everyday experiences. Yet Jesus came to give us peace with God, peace within ourselves, and peace in the midst of our circumstances. And because of his life, death, resurrection, ascension, and coming return, we discover that Jesus himself is our peace both now and in the age to come.
Joy
December 12, 2021 14:00 - 56 minutesIt’s joy week in our journey through Advent. How do we find and experience joy in the midst of the variety of circumstances we face in this life? Is joy only to be experienced in fleeting moments here on earth, or perhaps the joy that Jesus gives will only be realized in heaven someday? Could joy be our experience every single day, and if so, how?
Hope
December 05, 2021 14:00 - 53 minutesAs we enter into the Advent season, we recognize that Christmas isn’t only about experiencing hope, joy, peace & love, but it’s about Jesus, the light of the world- he is our hope, joy, peace, and love! This week we begin with recognizing that hope is experienced in Jesus for this life and for the life to come!
Global Mission Gathering
November 28, 2021 14:00 - 33 minutesJesus said that the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Going with Jesus on Mission looks like stepping into hard spaces and being redemptive with Him. We desire to be a church that actively launches people into living on a Mission with Jesus to make the gospel known and actively redeem unredeemed spaces by making disciples among their neighbors, the marginalized, and the nations.
Philippians 1:27-30
November 21, 2021 14:00 - 46 minutesAs Paul turns his attention from his situation to the lives of the Philippian church, he invites them to live as citizens of the kingdom of heaven, by standing firm together living worthy of the gospel, engaging in whatever struggle they may face.
Philippians 1:18-26
November 14, 2021 14:00 - 34 minutesAs Paul describes the tension between his desire to stay and live on mission, or go and be with Christ, he draws our attention to the beautiful reality of the treasure that is Christ. With Christ as our treasure, Paul is calling us to live light of that, so that those who have our lives in view will have reason to glory in Christ.
Philippians 1:12-18
November 07, 2021 14:00 - 51 minutesWhat can God do through our lives when we recognize that God is able to use our circumstances, difficult and beautiful, for the advancement of his kingdom in and through our lives? This is the question that Philippians answers, and the question that Paul answers in this passage.
Always Reforming
October 31, 2021 14:00 - 33 minutesOn Reformation Day we consider one of the slogans of the Protestant Reformation, “Semper Reformanda” which means that the Church is always being reformed according to the Word of God. And in order for us to be reformed as a people, we need to be reformed as individuals. As the Potter works with the clay, our God is working to reshape our lives that we might be conformed to the image of Christ, as we submit our lives to Him.
Journey to the High Places
October 24, 2021 14:00 - 1 hourRenaut walks us through part of his Sabbatical journey and shares a glimpse of what God has revealed to him about growing to become more like Jesus. Throughout the journey of this life, God our good shepherd leads and guides us, using the most difficult spaces for our good so that we may become like Him.
Philippians 1:9-11
October 17, 2021 14:00 - 40 minutesAs Paul prays for the Philippians, he asks not only for provision from God, but that God would transform them so that they may bear the fruit of righteousness. As we pray for ourselves and for one another, we are challenged to pray not simply for our circumstances to improve, but for our character to grow in the midst of our circumstances.
Philippians 1:3-8
October 10, 2021 14:00 - 48 minutesContinuing on in Philippians, this introductory encouragement and prayer from Paul allows us to see his deep affection for this church in Gospel Partnership. For Paul this is not a side note, but instead forming Gospel Partnerships was a vital component to the life and ministry of Paul, and a type of partnership that we can learn much from for our lives today.
