"Thyatira: When Salt Loses Its Saltiness"
Texts: Revelation 2:18-29
Pastor Ken Wish helps the modern-day church negotiate the waters of tolerance and plurality that are so prevalent in our culture today. Jesus reminds the believers in Thyatira to hold fast to the truth, not compromising their faith in the face of teachings of tolerance and plurality. Join us as we continue our study of the Churches of Revelation.

Pergamum: Accept No Counterfeits - January 21, 2007
"Pergamum: Accept No Counterfeits"
Texts: Revelation 2:12-17, I Corinthians 13, Numbers 22-25:3 & 31:16, Hebrews 4:12-13
Pastor Jon Twitchell continues our journey through the Seven Churches of Revelation with a look at the cultural and religious practices in Pergamum. By looking at the cults of Demeter, Dionysus, and Aesculapius, we can better understand the cryptic imagery that Jesus uses in the letter He asks John to write. In the midst of all that is false and counterfeit, we must remain true to the living God!

Ephesus: Remember Your First Love - January 7, 2007
"Ephesus: Remember Your First Love"
Texts: Revelation 1; Revelation 2:1-7
Pastor Jon begins a seven week series on church health based on the letters to the seven churches of Revelation. During this first week of the series, he looks at the letter to the believers in Ephesus and explores what it may have meant that they had "forsaken their first love." As we consider those lessons, may we pursue God with all of our hearts, may we greatly love our neighbors, and may we do all we can to bring those two great loves together.
