DisciplesNet Worship #750 Proper 19 – (Borschel 9.15.2024)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

One of the ways we sense Christ's presence in the world most clearly is through Christ's presence at the table of communion. Pastor Audrey speaks to us from Mark 8:24-38 about that presence and how we can experience it more fully.
For this service also, we had visitors from the Congolese Disciples of Christ who joined us in song and in communion.
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.

DisciplesNet Worship #518: Third Sunday of Easter (Phelps 04.26.2020)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

We often find Christ in the broken times in our lives. Christ is present always, but when we need God most, those are the times when Christ appears to us in special ways. Pastor Deb uses the story of the two disciples who encountered Jesus on the road to Emmaus from Luke 24:13-35 to help us understand how we can receive Christ in our own brokenness.
Join us for 30 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." 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 #516: Easter Sunday (Hord Owens 04.12.2020)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

How do we live out the reality of the presence of Jesus in our lives in this world? General Minister and President of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) Teresa Hord Owens brings us the message from John 20:1-18 showing how the first disciples received this news and how we can live in the surety of the Risen Christ's presence with us always and live into the reality of the Realm of God that, even now, is coming into being.
Join us for 30 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." 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.
