What does the Lord require of you? This is a question we struggle with each day as we strive to be more faithful believers. In Micah 6:8 the prophet proclaims, “He has told you, O mortal, what is good, and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice and to love kindness and to walk humbly with your God?” This year the One Great Hour of Sharing special offering uses this question to ask how God is calling us to live, help others, and have a fuller relationship with God

New Years’ eve often encourages us to make resolutions. What will this new year bring for us? More importantly, what changes might we make to live our best lives and do the most good?             Our church calendar starts

For those of us who gather in Advent expectation, we know that the only perfect gift ever given was the one we received in Jesus Christ. Finding that perfect gift is hard, often laborious work. If you’re like me, you seriously worry that your loved one won’t like the gift, or they might find the gift to be unsatisfactory — so much worry leading up to Christmas. Yet, our congregation knows that our collective gifts through the Christmas Joy Offering celebrate the coming of Jes

This month we are worshiping a little differently.  As we prepare for a Season of Thanksgiving, it seems only right to focus on the theme of Stewardship. Each year we take time during the month of November to dedicate our gifts and talents to our church and to God.  As people of strong faith, we understand that all that we have comes from God and it is our responsibility and honor to share our blessing with others. Winston Churchill once said, “We make a living by what we get
