Third Sunday After Epiphany

Written by Faith2014 on .

As we continue through the time after Epiphany, stories of the call to discipleship show us our collective calling to show Christ to the world. Jesus begins proclaiming the good news and calling people to repentance right after John the Baptist is arrested for preaching in a similar way. Knowing that John was later executed, we see at the very outset the cost of discipleship. Still, the two sets of brothers leave everything they have known and worked for all their lives to follow Jesus and fish for people.

Accompanying Scripture:
Jonah 3:1-5, 10; Mark 1:14-20

Second Sunday After Epiphany

Written by Faith2014 on .

In John’s gospel, Jesus’ ministry begins with a simple call of disciples- “Follow me.” We are invited to do the same, following Jesus day by day, hour by hour, moment by moment trusting we do now do this work alone.

Accompanying Scripture:
1 Samuel 3:1-10; Psalm 139; John 1:43-51

Baptism of Our Lord

Written by Faith2014 on .

In the beginning of the gospel of Mark, Jesus is baptized by John the baptist in the River Jordan and this jumpstarts his ministry. For us, baptism reminds us that we too begin as children of God and are proclaimed beloved. Through water and holy spirit, God celebrates not for what we do but who we are.

Accompanying Scripture:
Genesis 1:1-5; Psalm 29; Mark 1:1-11

How Does a Weary World Rejoice?

Written by Faith2014 on .

25th Sunday After Pentecost

Written by Faith2014 on .

This week the “fun” parables continue as we hear about three different people who take the wealth given to them and do different things. Two of them invest it and the third buries it. How can we take all God has entrusted to us with care and creativity?  

Accompanying Scripture:
Judges 4:1-7, Psalm 90:1-8, 12 and Matthew 25:14-30

Stewardship Celebration Sunday

Written by Faith2014 on .

This Sunday we celebrate the many ways stewardship is lived out in our congregation through our time, our finances and our hearts. In our scripture readings, we hear from the prophet Amos that as important as worship is, God’s heart calls for justice and righteousness to be what matters most. Jesus uses a parable to remind us to pay attention and stay awake. As we look onward to 2024, may we remain rooted in the heart of God and continue to reach out toward our neighbors and the world. 

Accompanying Scripture:
Amos 5:18-24, Matthew 25:1-13
