We gather for Ash Wednesday at the beginning of Lent to prepare our hearts for the work Christ is doing in us. Selfishness and sin lead to deep sorrow, but that is not the end of the story.  Due to inclement weather, Christchurch will be closed on February 16th. You can, however, view a 10 minute devotional on Jesus, the Pharisees, and the Sabbath instead. Music by Eric B. Pearson, ebp from his album "northwoods (extended)" on Apple Music and Spotify.  Due to inclement weather, Christchurch will be closed on February 9th. You can, however, view a 30 minute online worship service instead. With the help of our audio engineer, Dan Noonan, I have put together a short worship service for our congregation that is now available on YouTube. It is music from recent Christchurch worship services, Scripture readings, and a new 11 minute reflection on Luke 5:17-26. https://youtu.be/-EVM0-t89VI  One of the best ways to get better at what you want to do is to apprentice to someone who does that thing well. What do you think Jesus does well? How would that help you?  Don’t you hate it when people make a situation all about themselves? Yet Jesus says more than once that it is all about him: all of Scripture and all of life. How can this be?  Sometimes it seems like following Jesus is all hard work and no play, but if we look at his life we can see that is not the case. Come see him attend a wedding and its week-long reception!  |
