Worship with the Wise Men

Epiphany 2021

January 10, 2021 • Peter Mueller

Our current time in history has been punctuated by multiple events and situations that command our attention and threaten to distract us from what’s most important. Joining the wise men in regular, intentional worship of Jesus throughout our days is a great way to re-focus on the one who is our only true hope!

Out with the Old and In With the New

January 3, 2021 • Peter Mueller

As we leave 2020 behind and enter the new year of 2021, it’s especially valuable to ask God to help us grieve the difficulties of the last year while also celebrating God’s presence and provision. This is also an exciting time to look forward to God’s continued faithful presence and work in our lives in the new year, and to intentionally entrust the new year to Him!

Emmanuel: You're One of Us

December 27, 2020 • Jonathan Kopecky

Emmanuel: You're One of Us You’re telling me that all of Joseph’s family/relatives/cousins were in Bethlehem and no one had a place for his pregnant wife? Why? This 2020 has brought on the feeling that we are isolated and alone. Whether it was the first understanding of the virus, or the wave of racial issues, or the twitter wars on the presidential election, there were moments when we felt like we were in a bubble and no one understood us, no one had space for us, and we possibly didn’t have room for anyone else either. Even in their isolation, God made room for Joseph and Mary. He provided for them (but it wasn’t what they expected) to deliver the Savior of the world. God makes room for you. Despite the uncertainty, disagreements, and losses the pandemic has brought on, God provides for us. Christmas is the way we remember God’s love and sacrifice for us. He became flesh and dwelt among us. He is Emmanuel, God with us. And he continues to be with his people.
