DisciplesNet Worship #403, Lent 4: (Borschel 03.11.2018)
To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.
What do the Old Testament story of Moses lifting up the bronze serpent, the cross, and Nicodemus all have in common? Pastor Audrey Borschel skillfully knits together these three stories to help us understand who Jesus really is.
Our 30-minute worship today includes a time of prayer, scripture, singing, 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. (Scroll down for an Order of Worship)
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.

"The cross is foolishness and scandal," the people of Paul's time said, reacting to his preaching. Pastor Russ Smith takes us through Pauls rebuttal in 1 Corinthians 1:18-25 to show us how the cross can be the wisdom and power of God for us now.

“Whoever should follow me must hate his mother and father, his brother.... Hand raises. "Uh Jesus? Did I hear you correctly? Just what does this mean? And… will it be worth it?" Our worship today looks at following Christ through the lens of one of the most misunderstood passages of scripture, Luke 14:22-33, where Jesus gives to his disciples words that have been translated into some of the most confusing lessons in scripture.

DisciplesNet Worship #238, “Which Hill?” (Db Phelps, 03.01.2015)
Click here to watch this worship service on YouTube
In one minute disciple Peter is feeling good at having answered Jesus correctly, that he was the Messiah. In the next, Jesus is rebuking Peter, telling him to "get behind him, Satan."
It all had to do with Jesus teaching his disciples about choices--between life and death, saving and losing our lives. We hope you will worship with us as we explore this message, this second Sunday in Lent. Rev. Deb Phelps brings the message, "Which Hill," with insights on which hill we are called to die upon.
