Children’s Moment for Epiphany C5 – 9-Feb-25

DisciplesNet

9-Feb-25 (Luke 5:1-11)

Today, in our story from the gospels, Jesus meets some fishermen, and he goes out to fish with them. After working all night, they still hadn't caught any fish at all. Now some fishermen will tell you that that isn't the point, but these guys had to catch fish to sell in order to make a living, so they were disappointed, tired, and probably a bit mad.… Read the rest “Children’s Moment for Epiphany C5 – 9-Feb-25”

DisciplesNet Worship #770 Epiphany 4 – (Cobb 02.02.2025)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

If there is one thing that Christians should focus on, what would it be? Pastor Anita speaks to us from 1 Corinthians 13 about how love is the key to our lives of faith.
Join us for just over 28 minutes of worship, prayer, scripture, a number of favorite hymns, and communion. You may choose to participate or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me." If you would like to share with us at the table that goes beyond earthly boundaries of time, place, and structure, we ask that you prepare a piece of bread of some type and a drink such as grape juice, wine, or water. As we pray, our prayers extend to where you are. If you are unable to eat or drink, you may want to use a symbolic gesture or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us.

DisciplesNet Worship #769 Epiphany 3 – (Smith 01.26.2025)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

Paul uses the symbolism of the parts of the body, all working together, as a way of seeing how the Church is supposed to work. Pastor Russ speaks to us from 1 Corinthians 12:12-31a to examine this symbolism and help us to see what we can learn about working together as the body of Christ.
Join us for just over 30 minutes of worship, prayer, scripture, a number of favorite hymns, and communion. You may choose to participate or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me." If you would like to share with us at the table that goes beyond earthly boundaries of time, place, and structure, we ask that you prepare a piece of bread of some type and a drink such as grape juice, wine, or water. As we pray, our prayers extend to where you are. If you are unable to eat or drink, you may want to use a symbolic gesture or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us.
