Our fall Adult Forum series will be a ten-session study of the Gospel According to John, led by David Moore. John’s Gospel is quite different from the three Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) in its stories, its sequence and its focus on the divinity of Jesus Christ. Our congregation is one of many that […]
Invited and inviting—that is the nature of the church. By God’s grace in holy baptism we have a place at the banquet table of the Lord. When, by the power of that same Spirit, humility and mutual love continue among us, the church can be more inviting still. PRAYER: O God, you resist those who […]

The word of God is a refining fire. Jesus is the great divide in human history. He invites our undivided attention and devotion. Today, in the assembly, we are surrounded by “so great a cloud of witnesses.” In the word and in the holy communion we are invited yet again to look to Jesus, “the […]
