The Church God Wants – Know Jesus is the theme for our second week from our series on what God wants in a church. It may seem obvious that God would want a church that knows Jesus, but it not these days.

Your friends are the family that you get to choose. Friends are a reflection of who we are. They are the company we choose to keep. This Sunday we continue our annual stewardship focus – One in Christ – with a look at our friends.

Why exactly would I take off my sandals? Foot protection in general is a good thing, but when you are standing in the presence of God, off those sandals go! The account of the burning bush is a fascinating look at The Lord’s identity.
Epiphany mean “reveal”! The season of the church year that we call Epiphany has its bookends the Star of Bethlehem and the glory of God on the Mount of Transfiguration. We begin the season taking on the baby in the manger from Christmas. We leave the season seeing God in all his glory. The reason this “shot in the arm” is essential to our faith is because the forty-day journey to the cross that is the season of Lent is long and difficult. The annual recollection of Jesus’ Passion is painful to watch. Lest we forget that Jesus is God we see him once more in all his glory revealed.
