E100 #17: "Running on Fumes"
Text: Acts 9:1-19
The story of Paul is exhausting! We struggle to keep up with the passion and determination of this Apostle. And yet, we recognize that Paul did not accomplish all of that by his own strength and ability, but because of a constant reliance upon the power and presence of the Holy Spirit.

On this Homecoming Sunday and 45th Anniversary Celebration, Pastor Jon helps us to consider how the local church should be shaped in the Image of the Triune God.

E100 #15: "You Are What You Eat"
Text: Luke 22:7-34
Our text today highlights the dichotomy between the Kingdom Narrative and the narratives of this world. While the disciples are attracted to money, power and greatness; Jesus demonstrates a Kingdom built on poverty, brokenness and servanthood. As we gather around the Table, we are formed and shaped by the grace that we find there.

E100 #13: Who Is My Neighbor? - September 2, 2012
E100 #13: "Who Is My Neighbor?"
Text: Luke 10:25-37
The Good Samaritan gives us a concrete example of how we ought to reflect the character and nature of God. After looking at a couple of lessons from the parable itself, Pastor Jon takes a closer look at the context of the parable, suggesting that the Bible often calls us to specific behaviors, regardless of the behavior of others.
