Sunday Service – March 26, 2023

As we get closer and closer to Easter, we dive deeply into the dark trial of Jesus. Pastor Ruttan returns from vacation and will share a sermon based on John 19:1-16. Jesus is mocked, flogged and falsely condemned. What are we supposed to learn from the mockery of Jesus? (More than you’d think.) In the kids’ time we will think about our new memory verse (John 3:30) from another angle. We will worship, pray and sing together. There will be Sunday School, nursery care, and fellowship time after the service. The service is at 10:01 am in-person and online via YouTube.

Sunday Service, March 19th, 2023

Sunday is the fourth Sunday in Lent– traditionally a time of celebration. We will worship, pray and sing together. Our special guest, Jeff Walther will lead the sermon, while Pastor Ruttan is away on vacation. There will be Sunday School, nursery care, and fellowship time after the service. The sermon is titled ‘Always winter, never Christmas’, a take on C.S. Lewis quote from The lion, the witch and the wardrobe. The essence of the piece is imagining the world as if Jesus had never been born and highlighting the positive influence he has had through history. The service is at 10:01 am in-person and online via YouTube.

Sunday Service – March 12, 2023

Special note: On Sunday remember to “jump ahead” one hour with your clocks for Daylight Savings Time! Sunday is the third Sunday in Lent– a time of preparation and spiritual focus leading up to Easter. We will worship, pray and sing together. Pastor Ruttan will introduce our new memory verse for March. There will be Sunday School, nursery care, and fellowship time after the service. The sermon will be a bit different, and is a diversion from the current series on John’s Gospel. Pastor Ruttan will speak about how to get the most out of a sermon. It might seem strange, but listening to a sermon is a proactive art. When we prepare, watch for certain things, and respond in certain ways, God uses his "means of grace" (explanation on Sunday) including imperfect sermons to build up his people for their specific lives. After the service, we will have the quarterly Q and A Forum in the sanctuary. There will be a five minute break for those who want to grab a coffee or leave; then we will have the focum. The service is at 10:01 am in-person and online via YouTube.
