The Increase of Peace

Isaiah 9:6-7

December 4, 2022 • Rev. Jeremy A. McKeen • Isaiah 9:6–7

On the second Sunday of Advent, we consider the gift of peace. The word ‘peace’ is used by people from all religious backgrounds and walks of life. After all, who doesn’t want peace? Peace is one of those things that characterize a wonderful life. But what is peace? What are the different types and aspects of peace? And most importantly, how does the arrival of Jesus and his work in our lives bring an increase of peace as God promised it would. We hope you can join us this week as we remember the significance of peace and rediscover how to experience the increase of peace in our lives and world.

The Life God Gives

December 25, 2022 • Rev. Jeremy A. McKeen • John 3:16

When you think of eternal life, what comes to mind? The tendency is to simply think of eternal life as an existence that goes on forever. But is that all that God offers to us in Christ? Just a permanent existence beyond death? What about the here and now? On this Christmas Day, we’ll look at the final part of John 3:16 and discover the meaning and experience of eternal life, the new life that Christ came to bring.

The Son God Gives

December 24, 2022 • Rev. Jeremy A. McKeen • John 3:16–17

The Love God Gives

December 18, 2022 • Rev. Jeremy A. McKeen • John 3:16

In our world of sad news, bad news, scary news and critical news, the good news of God’s love for the world is so needed. But what type of love does God give to us? What is God’s love? How can we spot it? Model it? And how can this love change our lives and world? Join us on this fourth Sunday of Advent as we look at John 3:16 and discover “The Love God Gives.”
