DisciplesNet Worship #677: Easter 3 – (Shaw 4.23.2023)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

Encountering the empty tomb leads to a lot of questions. We can handle those questions in a sort of minimal way, keeping our distance, not letting them really affect us. Or, like Peter, we can enter the empty tomb and face the questions directly. Pastor Bob speaks to us from John 20:1-9 recommending than instead of simply stooping to look in, we should boldly enter into thinking over the resurrection and come to a deep understanding of what it means for us.
Our worship service is 28 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.

DisciplesNet Worship #675: Easter Sunday – (Smith 4.9.2023)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

One of the most common images of Easter is the tomb with the stone rolled away. While this points toward the questions that Easter raises, it does not really provide the answer to what changed for the disciples to propel them out of their hiding to become bold witnesses. Witnesses to what? Not just the empty tomb, but the experiences of the risen, living Lord.
Pastor Russ speaks to us from John 20:1-18 about how the real miracle of Easter, for those disciples and for us, is the encounter with our risen, living Lord.
Our worship service just over 30 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.
