The second week in our message series, "Cornerstones," which is looking at some of the foundations of our Faith and our parish. Last week we looked at love. This week we look at Grace.
First week in our message series, "Cornerstones," which is looking at the foundations of our faith. The theme this week is love. What do we want them to know? Love for God and others has allowed us to grow as a church. This must continue to be a cornerstone for us. What do we want them to do? Celebrate our parish and commit to love and invest in it.
Final week of our short message series, "Life of St. Paul." This week, in his Letter to the Romans, St. Paul shifts from a theological theme to a pastoral theme. St. Paul talks about he characteristics of Christian living.
The second in our three-part message series, "The Life of St. Paul." Continuing to look at his Letter to the Romans, we look at St. Paul's question, "Who has known the mind of the Lord?" and how the discernment of spirits can help us know God's will for us.
Starting a new message series, "Life of St. Paul." Really it is going to be more St. Paul and the Romans, since for the next 3 weeks we will be looking at his Letter to the Romans. This week's theme: “...that he might have mercy upon all.”
The last week in our summer message series, "Moses: Lifelong Journey of Faith." This week we look at Moses' last will and testament, and what allowed him to persevere for 40 years in the desert.
Week 7, the next to last week, of our summer message series, "Moses: Lifelong Journey of Faith." This week we find the Israelites nearing the end of their 40 years in the desert. The whole first generation has pretty much died off, but their children and grandchildren are not all that different; they are complaining about not having water, and even saying they should go back to Egypt. After 40 years of dealing with them, Moses lets all his frustration come out because what goes into our heart must eventually come out. So, what's in your heart?
Week 6 in our summer message series, "Moses: Lifelong Journey of Faith." This week we learn that we need to stop telling God how big our problems are, and start telling our problems how big our God is.
The fifth week in our summer message series, "Moses: Lifelong Journey of Faith." This week we look at the lowest point of the Exodus -- the Golden Calf. What we want you to know this week: First, God is looking for people who will be like Moses, who are willing to sacrifice themselves for others. Second, this is a reminder of what Jesus did for us. What we want you to do this week: Identify who is it that you lead, even if it is just yourself. How are you taking extreme ownership with who you lead, and are you willing to sacrifice for them?
Fourth week in our summer message series, "Moses: Lifelong Journey of Faith." From the excitement and drama of last week, we turn to something a bit more mundane. The humble Moses learns a valuable lesson from his father-in-law about leadership, the the importance of delegation. What we want you to know this week: Leadership is more about being a delegator than being a doer. What we want you to do this week: Identify one task or responsibility which you could delegate to someone else. Then ask God for the grace to know to whom you should delegate the task to.
Third week in our summer message series, "Moses: Lifelong Journey of Faith." This week we look at an iconic episode of Moses' life -- the plagues and the crossing of the Red Sea. What we want you to know this week: God rewards people who move forward who take the next step and trust in him to act. What we want you to do this week: What is your vision for your life? What do you want? Then make an act of trust in God to act for your best.
Second week in our message series, "Moses: Lifelong Journey of Faith." This week we look at hour God's "liberating truths" can overcome our "limiting beliefs" to allow greatness in our lives.
We begin our summer message series, "Moses: Lifelong Journey of Faith." This weekend we will look at Moses' beginnings and how they teach us that gratitude is the foundation of greatness.
