On World Communion Sunday, Christians remember that they are part of the one body of Christ. Whether they share communion in a cathedral or the countryside, this Sunday celebrates our diversity as well as our common bonds.
Connections Across Barriers
September 29, 2024 • Pastor Tami Luckhardt • Ephesians 2:11–22
Pastor Tami Luckhardt continues our current series, 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, with a message titled 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙣𝙚𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 𝘼𝙘𝙧𝙤𝙨𝙨 𝘽𝙖𝙧𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙧𝙨. Division and barriers can isolate us from one another. Christ, through faith, can break down hostilities and move us into new community and connection with one another.
Connections with Community
September 22, 2024 • Pastor Tami Luckhardt • Hebrews 10:23–25
In our loneliness, we often retreat from church and community. We are called, as believers, to prioritize the time for worship and small groups, and to encourage each other in faith.
Connections with God
September 15, 2024 • Pastor Bethany Nelson • John 15:1–5, John 15:9–12
Jesus was connected to the Creator and all his relationships were built on this; so may all our relationships be built on our relationship with God. Staying connected to God helps us have more loving relationships with others and bear fruit.
Connections Among Christians
September 8, 2024 • Pastor Tami Luckhardt • Ephesians 4:1–6
Loneliness and isolation represent profound threats to our health and well-being. This reality reflects what our faith already teaches us: God created us for connection and community. Drawing on the experiences of the early church, we’ll remember how God leads us into lives of meaningful relationships with Godself and one another.
