“One More Move” – Mark 1:40-45
Pastor Jeremy Walloch
Summary: While the town-cryers and naysayers say things are bad and will only get worse, God has a history of moving with compassion when most needed with one more move.
JOY OF THE LORD
This 8-week sermon series for July and August will focus on the “Joy of the Lord.” Psalm 19:8 says, “The precepts of the Lord are right. They give joy to the heart.” This is another way of saying joy comes from God’s Word. Jesus came to give us joy, but we can lose our joy. We will look at what has often been called the Epistle of Joy — Philippians. Hopefully you will experience a new joy, get your old joy back and/or be reminded that the joy God intends for us is not dependent on our circumstances.

“NOTHING WORTH DOING IS EASY” – Pastor Larry Kassebaum
On the one hand we “celebrate” the 4th of July because it has some characteristics of a birthday and we do celebrate birthdays. But from another perspective, we should probably consider that not long after the Continental Congress declared independence from England, they had to back up their words and decision with the turmoil, sacrifice and death that accompanies war.
But the focus can’t be primarily on the costs associated with freedom and independence. On a regular basis we need to be reminded that these sacrifices have not been in vain and more will be required to ensure that future generations will be able to experience what we are tempted to take for granted.
FAITH LIKE A CHILDREN’S SONG
Why should children have all the fun? Many of us were introduced to the Christian faith through some funny — yet inspirational songs with catchy tunes. In this 4-week sermon series, we are going to revisit some beloved children’s songs while we are reminded of their much needed “truths.”
