How inspiring worship wins over anxiety

Exodus 6:6-27 is confusing at first read.  What does a family tree have to do with anything?  Why is the passage bookended by the same statement by Moses about his anxiety over his inadequacy to lead the people of Israel.  At first glance, the text itself can make one anxious!

This Sunday, we will see how Moses’ anxiety is resolved in Aaron’s leadership over the worship of God in Isreal.  In the same way, God has created and commanded worship to assure us, to remind us of His good grace and sovergn power.

Learn this Sunday how regular inspiring worship wins over life’s anxieties.

Service times are 8:30, 10 & 11:30 AM.  Childcare is provided at the 8:30 & 10.  The 11:30 service is a family worship service.  Children of all ages are invited to worship with their parents.

3 Questions about you and the kingdom of God

Matthew 16:13-19

13 Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?” 14 And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. 18 And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”

Is it possible to love Jesus and not love his church?  Can one love God and not his neighbor?  Can one fear God and not do what he says?  These are the choices some, maybe many, make.  Jesus ask in this passage – Who do you believe I am? – Some peole believe Jesus is one thing and they follow their own idea of Jesus.  This week we learn to be like Peter and follow the Jesus who is the Promised One.

Setbacks can get you to the goal

Everyday we live with certain kinds of setbacks.  As God creates the journey for us we often feel like its two steps back and one more step back.  Progress is slow and not often enough.

This week we will explore how God, the master designer of our journey, uses setbacks to get us to the goal in Exodus 4:18-31
