Morning Worship, 9/27/09

James cautions not to "boast about tomorrow." Does that mean we shouldn't plan? Or does it mean we should plan, always praying that our plans are pleasing to God?



Today's service was special in that the congregation joyously confirmed Ashley Morgan and commissioned her to full and active participation in the life of our church.

Enjoy!

From Kanye West to Serena Williams to Joe Wilson, we seem to be losing our sense of sensibility. Have we ceased being civil with one another? If so, from a Christian perspective, we've got work to do as a culture.



Enjoy!

"Invite-a-Friend" Sunday. Folks from the congregation invited their friends and family to join us in worship this week!

Rodger and Leah offered several special musical selections--harp, piano, and organ!



The sermon was titled Sincerely Imperfect. Here's the idea: The church is ambivalent. It can help people, and it can hurt people. James urges us to abort ambivalence by being careful with our words. By speaking out in love rather than hate. By being sincerely imperfect.

Morning Worship, 9/6/09

Today's New Testament reading os from the book of James. James cared about real people in their real lives, so he did his best to make religion...real. When people practiced discirmination in the church, he said, "Enough!" James called for a church where everybody is somebody.



(A prize awaits the person who correctly identifies the pop culture inspiration for the sermon prior to its unveiling in the sermon.)

Enjoy!
