Our world seems to be increasingly violent with a new act of terror or tragedy on the news every day.  What are disciples of Christ to do?  We hope you will join us for worship this week as we explore the church's response to violence and God's response to God's people in times of violence.  This week's worship is in song, prayer, scripture, and communion, but also in a special message we are honored to share with you by Rev. Jesse Jackson Jr..  Rev. Jackson is President of the National Convocation of Disciples of Christ and pastor of East Sixth Street Christian Church in Oklahoma.  We've created this worship as some of DisciplesNet's key leaders are in Columbus, Ohio, gathered with thousands of Disciples of Christ from the USA and Canada for General Assembly.  And from the assembly, Rev. Jackson agreed to share a special word with us about the ripple effects of violence that he is seeing and the tough call that we as Christians are called to make in response. Continue reading →

"What's in it for me, that is. if I choose to believe in God, the man asked the pastor? In this week's message, brought to us through Rev. Deb Phelps, we look at the words of the Apostle Paul in 2 Corinthians, talking about thorns in the flesh and being strong in spite of--even through our weaknesses.

Our worship is 30 minutes long, with singing, prayer, scripture, all designed for you to join in as suits you. We hope that you'll be blessed by worshiping with DisciplesNet, finding ways your own faith in God can grow in theses trying times.

As we do every week, our time together includes a time of communion (breaking of the bread) where 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 all 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 are given to 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.

"Help! We're going to all drown!" may have gone through Jesus' disciples minds that night when the storm came up as they were in their boat.
