DisciplesNet Worship #684: Proper 5A – (Cobb 6.11.2023)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

Abraham was called to leave his home and travel to a faraway place. If he did so, God promised that he would be blessed in such a way that the whole world would be blessed by him. Pastor Anita speaks to us from this story from Genesis 12:1-3 and helps us understand how being uprooted can be a way that we can be "blessed to be a blessing as well."
Our worship service is just over 29 minutes of prayer, some favorite hymns, teaching, 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.

We hope that as you join us for worship you will feel a blessing from being part. Please tell friends, family, and others you know about our online church that is here with doors that are always open, walls as wide as the world, and always room at the table.

God doesn't need protection from our real thoughts and feelings. God even encourages us to speak plainly in prayer. Pastor Russ speaks from the story of Abraham arguing with God in Genesis 18:20-32 to help us understand this important lesson.
Join us for 29 minutes of prayer, scripture, a number of favorite hymns, preaching as well as communion. You may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me."

DisciplesNet Worship #343, “Seeing the Stranger” (Grogan 02.12.2017)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

The story of Hagar and Sarah is full of drama, sorrow, heartache, and surprise. But where does God show up in all of this? The question is important, because it also relates to our everyday lives. We hope that you will join us for this time of worship with time to reflect on God's word, and the peoples' response. Worship today is just over 30 minutes long, with scripture, prayer, singing along, an inspiring message by Pastor Amy. Whether you are worshipping as one, or in a group, as we come together we are the people of God together--and so glad that you are part.

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." We believe that Christ extends the invitation to all, and that we come not because we are wholly righteous, but that we are redeemed.
If you would like to share with us at the table we ask that you prepare a piece of a type of bread for you, 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. (Scroll down for an Order of Worship)

to watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

As many as the stars in the sky...God told Abraham about his descendants--but how could this be when he and his wife Sarah had no children? God's word would become a family story that would connect, teach, and draw the people of the world together. We hope you will join us for a short time of worship as Rev. Amy Grogan brings us our message from Genesis 15. Worship today is about 32 minutes, including song, prayers, scripture, and considering God's word together. Continue reading →
