Repenting beyond religion

Repenting beyond religion

Christians in America (I don't know about the rest of the world) ues the word repent as though it is some high, holy word that is particular to the Christian faith. Or maybe to religion. It isn't. Repent means "Change your heart and life." Following Jesus includes changing one's heart and life. How has yours changed?  How does it still need to change?

Easter 2020

Easter 2020

Thanks to the pandemic, we can maybe grasp a bit of the anxiety and uncertainty Mary, Mary, and the disciples likely felt that first Easter. Matthew tells us Mary  and Mary felt "fear and great excitement." May you feel the excitement of knowing the Risen Christ in the midst of whatever fear you have.

Palm Sunday: Giving Up Giving Up

Palm Sunday: Giving Up Giving Up

Why were the people celebrating that first Palm Sunday? Because they didn't realize the path Jesus was actually on. Why do we celebrate today, in the midst of a pandemic? Because we don't know the path Jesus is on in our midst, either. Take a moment to experience joy today.

Apr 05, 202012:27
Giving Up Control

Giving Up Control

You never really had control anyway, why do we fight so hard to give up what we don't have?

Mar 30, 202016:57
For Good - We are giving up For Good

For Good - We are giving up For Good

A friend recently tweeted, "I gave up sweets for Lent. I gave up Lent for coronavirus." This pandemic has changed all our lives. But it has not stopped, and nothing can stop, our mission of helping others follow Jesus better today than yesterday. We pray this message helps you!

What do you do when you are thirsty?

What do you do when you are thirsty?

The sound quality isn't quite as good on this one as usual; this was our first live-streaming worship experience, and we pulled this from that!  Today's readings are Exodus 17:1-7 and John 4:5-15. What these have in common is water. Thirsty people. What do you do when you are thirsty? If you can get past literal, physical thirst, what do you do when your soul in thirsty? Do you grumble and complain? Do you reach out to God?  The good news for today is that God is faithful and good EVEN IF we grumble and complain!

Mar 16, 202017:01
What do you want to be when you grow up?

What do you want to be when you grow up?

God has called you. God is calling you. God will call you. A God who calls is a God who is close enough for us to hear, close enough for us to feel God's breath. Like God's call of Abram in Genesis 12, God is calling you and me to be part of blessing all the families of the earth. How is God calling you? What is God calling you to do?

Sinnercism

Sinnercism

Much of American Christianity is cynical about sin. We don't believe, or act like we don't believe, in the transformative power of God in our lives, specifically over and about sin. Take this definition of sin from John Wesley, "sin is a  willful violation of a known law of God." Take this definition because this is the kind of sin you and I, with the loving support of our church families, can actually do something about!


Mar 02, 202016:10
Giving up for Good

Giving up for Good

Ash Wednesday begins the season of Lent, a season which many Christians observe by giving up something.  This year, we are focusing on "giving up for good;" whatever we give up, we do so because we want it to strengthen our connection with and deepen our experience of God.

Feb 27, 202011:29
Lost & Found

Lost & Found

Have you ever lost something? Ever felt lost? We want you to know that God is always looking for the lost. Walk with us through the parable of the Prodigal Son. 

Feb 24, 202017:36
Jesus and the Law

Jesus and the Law

Christians may be tempted just to ignore the Old Testament, or set it aside. Jesus didn't do so; in fact, he said in Matthew he came to fulfill the law. What does that mean?  What does it look like for us? Take a listen.

Feb 17, 202016:44
I am a sheep

I am a sheep

Psalm 23 is one of the most widely recognized sections of scripture. Let's think about it together, and see what life and encouragement it offers.

It's Rocky

It's Rocky

Rev. Rachel Heyduck preaches this morning, answering the question, "How is your relationship with the Bible?"  This message includes a helpful and interesting illustration for how to read and interpret the parts of the Bible that you feel give you the most trouble.

Feb 03, 202017:45
Are you sure that's in the Bible?

Are you sure that's in the Bible?

Turn with me to Acts 8:37. Oh, wait - Help! There are verses missing from my Bible! In a Christian subculture that tries to maintain that the Bible we have now is exactly the Bible that believers have always had, how do we deal with textual variations?  Easy: we accept that we have the Bible God wants us to have, and we apply the Wesleyan Quadrilateral. The Quadrilateral is Scripture, Tradition, Reason, and Experience. Scripture is primary, but we cannot access scripture without the other three. United Methodists trust God and one another so that through tradition, reason, and experience, we can read the Bible faithfully and find there everything necessary for salvation.

Reading Scripture about Reading Scripture, part 3

Reading Scripture about Reading Scripture, part 3

How is your relationship with the Bible? For the 3rd week in a row, we have read scriptures about people reading scriptures. First, Jesus, then King Josiah, and now this week, an Ethiopian Eunuch. Don't know what a eunuch is? Go ask your dad. What each of these people find in scripture is that God offers hope, freedom, and inclusion rather than condemnation, oppression, and exclusion.

Jan 21, 202019:33
What is the Bible?

What is the Bible?

The Bible we use is the Bible we inherited from our parents, our parent's parents, and our parent's parent's parents. The Bible we use is NOT the collection of writings Jesus knew as sacred scripture or even the collection that all Christians everywhere agree are the one and only sacred scripture. So, then, what is the Bible?  United Methodists believe the Bible contains and/or reveals all things necessary for our salvation.  May the Bible offer you with what you need for salvation!

How Jesus Read the Bible

How Jesus Read the Bible

We start our "Focus on the Bible" series with Luke 4:14-30, a splendid example of how Jesus read the Bible. Jesus was offered the Isaiah scroll, and choose to read from what we know as chapters 61 and 58. This reading refers trained listeners to Leviticus 15 and Deuteronomy  25 which meant really, really good and exciting news to God's people.

After: ending 2019 right

After: ending 2019 right

What did you do after you were born?

Everything. Everything you have done you did after you were born.  As we draw 2019 to a close, you are invited to consider how you are going to live your life AFTER 2019. Leave behind what you need to leave behind. Bring forward what you need to bring forward. In the midst of it all, remember God is faithful.

Christmas Eve: the Advent of Light

Christmas Eve: the Advent of Light

I thought about learning physics to prepare this Christmas Eve message, but then I remembered why I never took Physics in the first place. Instead, think with me about the value of light, the difference it makes to you and me, and how what we all know about light sheds light on the Incarnation, on Emmanuel, or God with Us, or, what God did and we celebrate on Christmas.

Dec 30, 201923:02
Joseph did you know?

Joseph did you know?

Mary plays a much larger role in the Christmas story than Joseph, and for good reason. But this Sunday's lectionary Gospel reading is about Joseph. So, let's take a moment and learn what we can from Joseph about following Jesus. Joseph displayed great trust and character. Imagine what a difference we might make in the world if we, followers of Jesus, behaved with the kind of trust Joseph displayed!
