Jan 21 2024 The Church with a Capital O - "Our" Church
Genesis 1-11 lays out every theme of the Bible – Tuesdays or Wednesdays – over Zoom starting soon.
Last week we talked about the Church – Capital C – universal, invisible.
This week, we will talk about the Capital O church – Our church. Some of us have been together for many decades. You are the church here. It has never been about a program or organization – it is about people. When we have tried that – it didn’t work ... -

Dec 17 2023 Want to be Great? Become the Servant of All
20231217
Last week, at the very end, I talked about a strength of our church in the area of serving. I’d like to take a deeper look at this from the view of Advent. I’m going to do some weird things with the Bible to connect Advent and serving!
Thank You for this time – and that You left heaven, not regarding equality with God a thing to cling to – You came that You ...
