Good morning brothers and sisters! Thank you for joining us on this beautiful Sunday morning to learn about God!

God loves sinners—and he wants us to say it out loud.
Christians are sinners whom God has mercifully called. Only mercy can explain why Jesus brings people to faith and promises them salvation. Only grace can explain how he calls them to serve as they are able, even in the ministry of the gospel.

Good morning brothers and sisters! Thank you for joining us on this beautiful Sunday morning to learn about God!

We believe in the triune God. He is the only true God. The festival of the Holy Trinity is a time to celebrate God revealing
himself to us as one God in three persons. The triune God wants his people to teach this mystery in its biblical truth and
purity. This festival of the Holy Trinity begins the second half of the Church Year with a proclamation of people being
baptized and blessed in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, the only true God.

Good morning brothers and sisters! Thank you for joining us on this beautiful Sunday morning to learn about God!

He lives to pour out his spirit.
The Spirit provides faith and purpose for life. Pentecost, the celebration of the special arrival of the Holy Spirit, is the third great festival of the Church, along with the Nativity and the Resurrection. Pentecost closes the fifty-day period after Easter and ends the festival half of the church year.

Good morning brothers and sisters! Thank you for joining us on this beautiful Sunday morning to learn about God!

He lives to rule all things for the church.
Jesus is head over everything for the Church. At the time of Ascension, he takes his proper place. The Festival of the Ascension is one of the oldest and most joyful celebrations in the Christian Church. It will be observed by Christians until Christ returns to take us to be with him.

Life is full of either/or moments. Some of them are of little long-term consequence. I will have either the chicken or the fish. Some of them matter more. I will accept the new job offer or keep my current job. One either/or moment is life-changing for every human being. Either Jesus is still dead, or Jesus rose from the dead. Jesus claimed he would rise from the dead. “The Son of Man must suffer many things. . . be killed and after three days rise again” (Mark 8:31). So if Jesus remains dead, he is both a failure and a fraud. If Christ has not been raised, we are still in our sin. But Christ is risen! He is risen indeed! It makes all the difference! He lives! The season of Easter is a 50- day celebration of that fact.

Here’s our Holy Week Schedule:
Holy Thursday (4/2)- 6:30pm
Good Friday (4/3)- 6:30pm
Easter Sunday (4/5)- 10:30am
Easter breakfast 9:15am

Good evening brothers and sisters! Thank you for joining us on this beautiful Sunday morning to learn about God!
Included in his promises of what the Savior will do, the Lord promises to pour out his Spirit of grace. It is by the work of
the Holy Spirit alone that we are brought to faith in the one who was pierced for us.

I recognize my sinfulness. I am aware of my guilt, and the more I look at my situation, the more I realize what deep trouble I am in. I realize that what I really need is forgiveness, but I don’t deserve it. Fully aware of these facts, God worked salvation for me, provided me a Savior, called me to repentance, and promises me forgiveness.

Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent, reminding us of our mortality and calling us to repent. The ancient practice of imposing ashes on the foreheads of the faithful is what gives Ash Wednesday its name. The church father Tertullian (c. A.D. 160-215) writes of the practice as a public expression of repentance and of our human frailty that stands in need of Christ. Ashes can remind us forcefully of our need for redeeming grace as they recall words from the rite of Christian burial, “earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust.”

Join us as we begin our Lenten journey with our Savior tonight at 6:30pm.

“I didn't know I needed that” is a common expression of surprise and realization. It suggests that something, whether it’s a piece of information, a lesson learned, or a newfound understanding, has
come to light and is now recognized as being essential or valuable, even if it wasn’t previously apparent. Lent is the season of the Church Year when I recognize my greatest needs. During Lent, I realize that in Christ all my greatest needs are met. God knows what I need even when I don’t have any idea. The Holy Spirit makes it clear, week after week, that if I lack Christ, I have nothing. But if I have Christ, I have exactly what I need.
