What do we mean by “spirituality?” What is a “healthy” spirituality? Perhaps an even more important question is Why do we need a healthy spirituality? What is the goal of “spiritual growth,” especially in this trying time we’re in?
This week we’ll continue our Lenten worship series, I Am, with the sermon, “The True Vine.” In the Gospel of John, Jesus compares himself — and us — metaphorically to a vine and its branches: “I am the vine; you are the branches.
This week in our Sanctuary worship services we will continue our Lenten worship series, I AM, with “The Way, the Truth and the Life”
This week in our Sanctuary worship services we will continue our Lenten worship series, I AM, with “The Good Shepherd.”
This week as we continue our Lenten worship series around the I AM sayings of Jesus with “The Light of the World,” the first thing that stands out for me is the significant role light and darkness play in John’s gospel — from the first chapter on.
Last Sunday, the first Sunday of Lent, we began our worship series examining the seven I AM sayings of Jesus from the Gospel of John with “The Bread of Life.” As you all learned, the Gospel of John is different from the other three gospels in several important ways.
This year our Lenten theme will center on the seven “I AM” sayings of Jesus in the Gospel of John. We chose this theme because it focuses on the nature of Christ and what that means in our lives.
This season of Lent we will be reflecting deeply together on the values that make us who we are as a faith community, including: Evangelism, Discipleship, Community, Compassion, Worship, and Commitment.
As a large, mainline denomination, downtown church, we have a 90-year tradition of always asking the questions, How can we do this better? What more can we do?
