It is possible to be right and still miss what matters most. Paul brings us back to love. Not just a feeling, but a way of living that seeks the good of others. In everyday life, we are given opportunities to choose love in conversations, in disagreements, in unseen moments. As we remain in Christ, his love reshapes us from within. Over time, love becomes less about effort and more about who we are becoming. His love expressed through us becomes a witness to others. How might we intentionally choose love this week?

scripture for this Sunday in Ordinary Time, September 13th.

Peter thought he was being generous. Jesus expanded forgiveness beyond limits. This kind of forgiveness reflects God’s heart toward us. We know how often we have been forgiven. We have experienced his patience again and again. That grace begins to reshape us. Forgiveness does not erase pain, but it prevents it from taking root. It frees our hearts from being held captive. In God’s kingdom, forgiveness becomes a way of life, not a one-time act. It flows from remembering how deeply we are loved. Who might God be inviting us to forgive again today?

New audio Sermon by Pastor Steve Schantz
“God Comes Down”

Scripture Exodus 3:1-15 NIV

Dear Church Family,

This week in worship we will consider a life changing event in Moses calling as God came down to meet him in the burning bush. Even in those times when God seems absent or silent, he is actively at work bringing about the rescue of his people. Though they cannot see it yet, Israel’s longed for deliverance has already begun. While we’re not the Israelites, and God deals with his people in ways that are unique to their circumstance in the course of human history, he is still the same yesterday, today, and forever. There are times when we feel God is absent, or when we aren’t sure of where he is working. Like the Israelites in Egypt, there are times when we feel trapped by our circumstances. And yet, as Moses discovered, God is not a distant observer of human suffering. The God who seems absent is often closer than we realize.

Sermon Title – God Comes Down

Scripture – Exodus 3:1-15 NIV

Your Pastor and brother,
Steve Schantz

When life gets busy, it is easy to keep going without slowing down. Yet something changes when we pause to hear God’s voice. As we listen, the Spirit grows our faith. Through Scripture, through stillness, through simple awareness, God’s presence becomes clearer. Over time, the Father’s voice becomes familiar. We begin to trust his Son not because everything is explained, but because we recognize his Spirit’s work. Faith is not built in a moment. It grows in relationship. It deepens as we remain attentive. The more we listen, the more the Holy Spirit teaches us to trust. What space can we create this week to listen more closely to Jesus?
