A Few Good Men...and Women

March 1, 2020 • Peter Mueller

God’s people had moved into the land promised to them by God, but they didn’t have a form of government after Joshua died. Therefore, God raised up certain people to serve as “judges” - people who would literally settle disputes, lead battles, and generally lead the people spiritually. In this season, the people alternated between faithfully serving and rebelling against God with a variety of consequences for each. The good news for them and for us is that God never abandoned them or stopped loving them - even when they rebelled, He was more than ready to forgive and provide new life - and He stands ready to do the same for us today!

A New Beginning

November 15, 2020 • Peter Mueller

Sometimes it feels like evil has taken over the world and that evil is winning. Many of the first followers of Jesus also felt that way in the face of persecution from the Roman Empire. In the midst of this context, John receives a beautiful vision or revelation full of figurative imagery that reveals God’s plan for evil to be destroyed, for creation to be renewed, and God to live with His people forever. This last book of the Bible gives us great hope for a bright future!

Paul's Final Days

November 8, 2020 • Peter Mueller

Saul who became Paul had and still has a massive influence on the people of the world as he boldly proclaimed that Jesus of Nazareth was both the Messiah Savior and Lord and King of all that is. Paul vigorously contended that the benefits of Christ’s work on the cross and in His resurrection were available by God’s grace through faith, and that God fills those who believe with His Spirit to empower them to join Jesus in the work of making the world new. Living as we do in an imperfect world with imperfect leaders, Paul invites us to follow the crucified and risen one!

Paul's Mission

November 1, 2020 • Peter Mueller

Can God really change the worst parts of you into the best parts of you? 2000 years ago, Saul found out that the answer is a resounding YES! After God changed Saul from a killer assassin into a gutsy evangelist and changed his name to Paul, he spent his life preaching the good news of Jesus crucified and risen for the freedom of all who believe in Him. Today, Jesus calls you to trust Jesus and join in that same mission wherever God leads you!
