Mission Trip

As the youth in our church head out for their mission trip to West Virginia, we hear from the Old Testament, where God picks David, the youngest of eight siblings!

Holy, Holy, Holy

Last week we heard about the Trinity; so this week I want us to focus on "Holy." What does it mean to be Holy? What is God's work of sanctification? All of this is set against two powerful images, the first of Isaiah's vision of God Almighty, the second of a recent and tragic death in our church family.

Confirmation

We say it so often that the unusual nature of the Apostle's Creed does not strike us. But on this confirmation day, we will ask our youth to confess that God created them, that Jesus is their lord and that the church is holy because of the Holy Spirit. That is not something that average person on the street believes!
