04/07/2024 | Doubting Thomas
Do you believe in Santa Claus? How about the Tooth Fairy? Surely you believe in the Easter Bunny, especially after last week? Let's get serious
and push the envelope... - do you believe in God, and Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord?
It's difficult to believe and almost impossible to
explain how we know that God's word is true. All we have is the Bible, and the Apostles' Creed we recite during worship. In our teachings we
use the story of Thomas to remind us that if we believe we are called blessed. As with many other things in our lives we cannot always
know beyond a shadow of a doubt, but through faith and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we trust the reality of the Bible.

04/14/2024 | The Great Commission
"The Great Commission" is a call to preach the gospel and make disciples, and it's given to all who belong to
Jesus.... Jesus most clearly gave this commission in the gospel accounts of
Matthew, Mark, and John. He gave His followers, His disciples, a clear directive. He commissioned and commanded them to preach His
saving grace "to every creature" and to make disciples of all nations. This is "The Great Commission." We are to share the good
news of Jesus' saving grace, and we are to have confidence in our ability to do so because it's not by our power.
God gives us the power of the Holy Spirit who indwells, teaches, guides, and directs us in all things.

04/21/2024 | The Good Shepherd
There have been many stories written about a big, bad wolf. You have probably heard about "Little Red Riding
Hood"..., "Peter and the Wolf", and one of my favorites, "The Boy Who Cried Wolf".
But did you know that Jesus once told a story about a big, bad wolf too? In His story, the good shepherd is Him, and the sheep
are us. The wolf in Jesus' story is God's enemy.

04/28/2024 | Philip and the Ethiopian
In this week's lesson Philip receives instructions from the Lord and immediately obeyed which allowed for an Ethiopian to hear and
understand the word of God.... Afterwards the Ethiopian asked to be baptized.
Let's imagine for a minute what might have happened if
Philip didn't obey immediately. Possibly Philip would not have met up with the Ethiopian at the designated place and the Ethiopian
would never have heard the Good News about Jesus. Philip's example teaches us the importance for believers to obey Jesus' voice
immediately. We do not know how God is working in the lives of those around us.

05/05/2024 | The Holy Spirit Comes Down
You wouldn't leave your younger children home alone any more than God would leave us alone in the world. God knows
it's difficult to live a righteous life.... So when Jesus left us after
the resurrection, God didn't leave us alone - he left us with the Holy Spirit. He lives in us. You don't see him but you
can be sure He is there. We are comforted by knowing that He never leaves us. We can show evidence of having that Holy Spirit
within us when we demonstrate love to one another, and as we follow God's rules and commandments, we prove that the Spirit is alive and working
everywhere.

know...
that the Spirit is still with us, even today? We can pray for the Holy Spirit to help and guide our
church - no matter how young or old our congregation may be.
