As we move into Thanksgiving week, let’s consider a gratitude destroyer: Comparison. Comparing foils love. It is ours to be less than best so that Jesus can be more! This is a grand way to start Thanksgiving week, and wind down the rut as disappointed FRC hunters lick their wounds while preparing to give thanks. It’s turkey, not venison at most of our houses for Thanksgiving. And that’s ok if Jesus is more and we are less! Please join us for the message today,…

The church office will be closed for the Thanksgiving holiday on Thursday, November 26 & Friday, November 27.

Angels are not who you think. They are not the creatures we become when we die. They are not soft, gentle creatures who sing in high-pitched voices. They are not cookie-cutter beings. They are fierce, personal, masculine, created yet infinite, heavenly beings that deliver messages, protect, comfort, and worship. They are not to be trifled with, and are ignored to our peril. Let’s celebrate these heavenly creatures over Advent! Please join us for the message today, as we learn more…

Today, we continue with the “Angels” series as we look at the gift of hospitality in regards to angels. How is hospitality given to and received by angels?  Sometimes angels dispense the hospitality of heaven to encourage the weary.  Also, scripture often calls Christians to be hospitable and to welcome others.  And who knows? Have we entertained angels, unbeknownst to us? Please join us for the message today, as we learn more about angels during the second week of Advent!

Today, we continue with the “Angels” series as we look at angels working as messengers of God. Angels announce in the Old Testament and the New Testament the coming of the kingdom of God. They do so at strategic times and places in the history of salvation, and do so as ambassadors speaking and acting in the Lord’s name. Angels are messengers acting as the very ambassadors of God.

Today, we continue with the “Angels” series as we seek to answer common questions about angels. Do angels have halos? Do angels sing? What does it mean that angels praise God? What are the implications of answers to these questions for regular ol’ Christian humans on Christmas 2020? If you are wondering, we invite you to listen to today's message. Then, respond with praise! Please join us for the message today, as we learn more about angels during the 4th…
