  • 6/10/18, Rev. Jay Hanke ~ S-h-i-f-t the Paradigm
    Pastor Jay preached at all 3 services. Often it feels like we live in a crowded world – there are many of us! And yet, each of us is one . . . unique . . . loved as a child of God. Do you ever wonder about your uniqueness, how you stand out, what makes you distinctive? Is it the way you dress, or walk, or say “Y-All,” or chew on an ear of corn? Jesus has def […]
  • 6/3/18, Rev. Dan Elmore ~ What Are You Doing Here?
    Pastor Dan preached at the 8:15 and 11:00 services. This month of June is one of endings and beginnings. The school year is ending as pools open and summer finally begins in earnest. For some, their high school or college journey has come to an end, and the next stage of life begins with great hope and expectation! We celebrated these achievements at our 11a […]
  • 5/27/18, Rev. Jay Hanke ~ Jesus is In the House! King Jesus Lives!
    Pastor Jay preached at all 3 services. When we talk with each other about taking risks, we often hear phrases like all or nothing or go big or go home or taking a big leap . Yet if we were honest, we would need to admit that sometimes our risking and trusting are very calculated, weighing our options and our potential gain or loss. As the apostle Paul conclu […]
  • 5/20/18, Rev. Dan Elmore ~ Jesus is in the House: A More Excellent Way
    Pastor Dan preached at all 3 services. Jesus is in the house! This weekend we will celebrate Pentecost Sunday!

  • 5/13/18, Rev. Dan Elmore ~ Jesus is in the House: Or Do You Not Know?
    Pastor Dan preached at all 3 services. Jesus is in the house! It’s Mother’s Day weekend! It’s a time to gather our households to celebrate moms, grandmas, aunts, sisters, daughters, and all those women who have nurtured us in life and especially in faith. It’s a day when typically we try to act like everything is fine. We try to stay on our best behavior. Ye […]
  • 5/6/18, Rev. Jay Hanke ~ Jesus is In the House! Foundation: Jesus
    Pastor Jay preached at all 3 services. One of the things we all know about preschool kids is that we rarely have to wonder if they are “in the house” with us. They have many amazing and sometimes alarming ways of letting us know they are present. Our worship theme on “households” has been looking at the impact that Jesus makes when “Jesus Is In the House!” B […]
  • 4/29/18, Rev. Jay Hanke ~ Jesus is In the House! Fractured Households
    Pastor Jay preached at all 3 services. Ever heard that saying, the family that prays together, stays together? So if this is true we might find ourselves wondering why so many families are flying apart! And then there is the church – a big family of believers, and they pray a lot too. So why is the church family flying apart? Our worship series is taking a c […]
  • 4/22/18, Rev. Dan Elmore ~ Jesus is In the House! Trophy Cases
    Pastor Dan preached at all 3 services. Jesus is in the house! Did you know that? If we claim to follow him, Jesus is in our household of faith, the Church, and in our households of family and friends, however they are composed. So then, how are we to live within our households if Jesus is there? This is the fundamental question that Paul addresses in his fir […]
