Jesus Is The Song: Forgive Is The Name Of The Song
June 1, 2025
Scripture: Matthew 18:21-35
I have always appreciated listening to an album that has been thoughtfully laid out. You can tell when songs build into each other on purpose, and the band or producer is inviting you to a particular journey. It is especially impressive when there are common themes in the songs that tie an album together, and each song works as a stand alone, but is enhanced by the other songs around it. If God’s work among human relationships were a musical album, the theme would be forgiveness and the climax of the album would be called Forgive. Matthew 18:21-35 will help guide us in worship as we explore why forgiveness is at the heart of what Jesus desires for us as individuals, families, and communities.

Jesus Is The Song: Trust The Process
May 18, 2025
Scripture: Isaiah 58:12-14
In song writing there are “rules”. Plenty of beautiful music has been made by bending the rules, but if you don’t follow some of the basic structure and follow a rhythm you just end up with noise. In our series, Jesus is the Song, today we consider the role of Sabbath in our lives. All throughout scripture there is evidence that God had worked in rest and worship as important parts of the human experience. Isaiah 58:12-14 will help guide our steps as we come before the Lord today. Our children will also help lead us for part of our gathering.
