| 10/21/2012 | In Jesus' Steps? Jesus calls us to “go” forth into Mission for him? What Mission? What is the Mission of God? And, what does the Mission of God have to do with you? |

| 9/23/2012 | Peter "Called" by Christ Peter shows us how to be faithful Christians in our times: 1st Century Discipleship in the 21st Century. And Jesus calls all of us “Follow Me”, even in times that make it hard to be Christian. |

Shine the Light: Proclaiming Jesus! | The Rev. Robert Watkin | |
| 1/29/2011 | Proclaiming Jesus to the World When Jesus looked at the crowd he had compassion on them because they were harassed and helpless like sheep without a shepherd. Jesus tells us that the way to address these needs is to ask the Lord of the harvest to send out workers for the harvest. May we follow Jesus’ example and (1) be people who see and people who care, (2) be people who asks God to send out workers for the harvest, and (3) be the people who uses us to answer our prayer and make us disciples who make disciples! |
Shine the Light: Proclaiming Jesus! | The Rev. Wright Wall | |
| 1/22/2011 | Proclaiming Jesus as You Go We live in an age where God is expanding His kingdom one person at a time. Jesus chooses to use us to expand His kingdom by our actions and with our words. Three things to do to effectively tell others about the gospel of heaven: (1) Make time in your life to hang around with people that don’t know Jesus. (2) Think through your testimony and what your life was like before you met Christ, how you met Christ and what’s your life like since you met Christ. (3) Learn a simple illustration to explain the good news of the gospel of the kingdom of heaven. |
