Woodland Friends Church

Woodland Friends Church 'In the late 1890s, land on the hill above Kamiah, Idaho, opened up for homesteading. They called this place Woodland.

The Quaker Meetinghouse in homesteaded Woodland, standing and operating since 1939; the church hopes to be Jesus Christ to the community in serving them through whatever their needs might be, as well as spiritual guidance and encouragement. Quaker wheat farmers from North Branch, Kansas, jumped at the chance for a new start in a new land. Those flatlanders could not have imagined the challenge of

hauling their wagons up the mountain on a rugged trail. Covered in timber, it was a far ry from Kansas. These early Quakers held meetings in their homes for many years, eventually building a meetinghouse (in 1939) from lumber milled in Woodland. Seventy-three years later, the Friends church is the remaining vestige of a community that once was home to a store, post office, mills and a school. The school building still stands, and is owned and maintained by the church as a meeting place for community events. Thanksgiving and 4th of July potlucks are highlights. Those tenacious farmers managed to turn this hilly paradise into wheat fields, and a few second and third generation ranchers and farmers continue to produce grain and raise beef. One hundred years later, in the late 1990s, another migration impacted life in Woodland. Several hundred people pulled up roots from all over the country to begin life anew in this somewhat remote part of north central Idaho. Seeking freedom and independence, they built homes alongside ranchers and farmers. A number of them made Woodland Friends their church home which has resulted in a unique mix of theologically diverse backgrounds. The common thread is shared love for Jesus Christ and a commitment to serve and follow Him...'

When we read the Bible there are many themes, recurring symbols we can come back to. Things we see throughout the Scripture that threads it all together.... so where does this small obscure book of Philemon fit in? View the sermon here!

Finally I felt like the Lord okayed me to do this: I’m calling this sermon four snippets, and really, they’re just four passages lifted from these four letters of Paul to four churches. I had no intention to seek to connect them per-say, they just interested me and perhaps therefore might interest you this Sunday.

In a world where people try to justify assassinations and assassination attempts, God, thankfully, has a much purer morality-expectation and righteousness. And the Perfect Judge judges perfectly, which means we're all in trouble.. unless He has a way of escape...

"I had my eye on a particular angle. I wanted to see the sinful, resistant, doubter. I wanted to see the, "humans like the rest of us," sort of reaction. Maybe the person who didn’t do Lent. The sinner who was less than perfect. It’s easy to find them earlier in the Passion week, a few days before, as not only Judas betrayed Jesus, but emphatically, as Jesus is apprehended in the Garden, and He tells His disciples to not fight back, we’re told, “All of them,” the disciples, “deserted him and fled,” (Mark 14:50). Feeling crummy, I guess I wanted to see that attitude even in the Resurrection — did that persist? You bet it did."
