DisciplesNet

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

DisciplesNet Worship #564: Lent 3 (Cobb 03.07.2021)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

Since our earliest childhood, we've had rules. But how do we choose which rules to follow? Pastor Anita teaches from Exodus 20:1-17 (the Ten Commandments) to exhort us to follow those rules that help us to see others as God sees them; that help us to build up and to love each other.
Join us for 28 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.

Martha doesn't get the credit her sister Mary gets. It's true that Mary chose the better path as Jesus said, but does that mean we reject Martha's "getting the work done for hospitality's sake" entirely. Rev. Dean Phelps takes us through the account in Luke 10:38-42 and shows us why we might respect Martha's way quite a bit more.
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."

to watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

Who is it that deserves our respect and care? Rev. Ann Munsterman teaches from Luke 10:30-35 and shows us that this is the wrong question to ask. We do better to ask, "Who is a child of God?" or "Who does God love?". In asking those questions we encounter God's radical love for all people and hear the call to love completely as God does.
Join us for 31 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.
