Current Sermon Series
Sunday,January 4
A year ago as we began a New Year, I encouraged all of us to discern "One Word" from God for your life. It was less of a 'Resolution' to achieve and more of something to 'Seek After' like the Magi who sought after the Messiah child being led by way of a start. Do you remember your "One Word"? How did that practice impact your life in 2025? This year I'd like us to undergo a similar exercise but with one significant change. I'm calling this Sunday's sermon "2 Words For 26". Since it is Epiphany Sunday, we will read the story of the Magi (Matthew 2:1-23) together and take note of how it speaks to our lives. What I began to notice is that many of the words that describe the Magi's interactions with God and whom God led them to are 'action words'. They were verbs, not nouns. If we read the gospels, we will discover that many times Jesus called us to 'verb-like' faith and not just 'noun-like' faith. So as we begin a New Year, I'd like you to discern with me "2 Words for 2026"...a noun and a verb. Where is God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit leading you in the year ahead? Who are they calling you to be (a noun) and what are they calling you to do (a verb)? I look forward to worshipping with you joyously as we ring in the New Year!
