Trinity Sunday: Reflecting God
Texts: Psalm 8; Genesis 1; John 1; Matthew 28:16-20
On Trinity Sunday, Pastor Jon looks at the practical implications of the doctrine of the Trinity for us as individuals and as a congregation. What does a church look like when it reflects the very nature of the Triune-God? It is a holy community of love, pouring itself out for each other--and also for the world around it.

God's Burning Bush
Texts: Psalm 104:24-30; John 20:19-23; Acts 2:1-21; Numbers 11:24-30; I Corinthians 12:4-13
Pastor Jon looks at Pentecost through the lens of the life of Moses, and his desire the the Spirit of the LORD would come upon all people, and that they would prophesy. This desire is fulfilled on the day of Pentecost, when the believers became "God's Burning Bushes" speaking forth His words to those who came to watch.
