DisciplesNet Worship #652: Proper 27C (Phelps 11.06.2022)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

In the book of Genesis, we hear God giving humanity dominion over all creation. What does that mean? Should we force creation to do our will? Pastor Deb looks at Proverbs 2 and shows us how real dominion is done with gentleness and wisdom following God's example.
This worship service is just under 28 minutes of worship, prayer, scripture, a few 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 #541: Proper 22 (Smith 10.04.2020)

to watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

The parables that Jesus used to teach can mislead us if we read too much or too little into them. Pastor Russ uses the parable of the wicked vineyard workers from Matthew 21:33-46 to help us hear a word of warning from Jesus for ourselves. However, as always, there is also a word of grace.
Join us for 29 minutes of prayer, scripture, and a number of favorite hymns, preaching 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.

He stood there heartbroken. He’d followed the law his whole life, but Jesus had just told him he was coming up short, and he didn’t think he could fix it. We invite you to join us for just over 25 minutes today of worship in song, prayer, scripture, and studying God’s word. Today we look at Mark 10:17-31; the story the one often referred to as “the rich young ruler.” As you reflect on your life, are you “rich enough”? Continue reading →

Our worship today looks at one of the toughest scriptures in the Bible--Jesus' words to the man with many possessions who came to Jesus seeking eternal life. Rev.

Did you know that when Christians gather at the table, breaking bread together as Jesus did with his disciples so many years ago, that we are participating in a type of stewardship, of God's amazing plan for our work in the world? How can this be? We hope that you will join us today and find out.

Today we are honored to have as guest preacher Dr. Ronald J. Allen, distinguished New Testament and preaching professor, scholar, and author.
