God’s gospel has been promised since the Old Testament, and Mark was called to record how those promises unfolded for the blessing of God’s people.

Exodus 6:2-13 Remember God’s Words 1/5/25 Worship Service
Trust what God will do. So often in the scriptures the cure to doubt is not to seek for a different answer or some other thing from the Lord. Instead, what is needed most is to hear the same truths of God again, that you would remember, that you would watch and wait with hope, and that you would walk by faith.

Matthew 2:1-12 Come Ready 12/29/2024 Worship Service
From nearly the beginning of Matthew’s gospel, we find two reactions to Jesus – faith, shown by worship; and rejection, shown by plots and rebelling against God.

John 1:29-34 Not Me, But He! 12/22/2024 Worship Service
The one we’ve waited for. John has gone to great lengths to ensure nobody thinks that he is the messiah. Instead, John’s role is to point toward, to prepare the way for, the arrival of the messiah. Here, now, we find John proclaiming that Jesus is the one: he is the Lamb of God, he has come to take away the sin of the world.

Advent 2024 – John 1:14-18 Knowing God 12/15/2024 Worship Service
You can see. John’s report should amaze us: the Word who is fully God and who created all things took on flesh and dwelt among his people! His glory has been known firsthand and his grace and truth were made clear to all. He is the one whom John the Baptist prepared the way for.

Advent 2024 – John 1:6-13 Receiving the Light – 12/8/24 Worship Service
The received light. Yet, those who respond to Jesus with faith and belief are born anew! Because of Jesus, all who trust him have a new family as God’s children. This means we have a new life and a new inheritance that matters forever.
-
Advent 2024 – John 1:1-5 Light and Life – 12/1/2024 Worship Service
Jesus is our Life and Light. Our King gives all who trust in him hope and the promise of eternal life. He gives our lives here and now meaning as we wait for eternity with him.

Exodus 5:10-6:1 What is God Doing? 11/24/2024 Worship Service
God: what are you doing? Moses comes to God with his frustrations: why hasn’t the Lord rescued his people? In response, God tells Moses that he is still in control and that this entire situation is part of his plan.
-
Exodus 5:1-9 The Cost of Obedience 11/17/2024 Worship Service
God called Moses to speak his word to both the Hebrews and to Pharaoh. Much to his own surprise, the meeting with the leaders of the Hebrews went smoothly! Perhaps he thinks meeting with Pharaoh will be easy, too?
-
Exodus 4:18-31 God’s Son 11/10/2024 Worship Service
How God rescues. Moses has been disobedient to God’s covenant promises, so how could he ever be a leader of God’s people? The answer is that – just like with our salvation – Moses is rescued by the actions and blood of another. God’s provision for him will mark him for the rest of his life.
