We Can’t Skip Ahead to the Ending

“We Can’t Skip Ahead to the Ending” – Rev. Emily Davis

You who fear the Lord, praise him!
The Lord does not hide his face from me;
the Lord heard me when I cried out to him.
All who sleep in the earth bow down to him,
and we shall live for him.
We will proclaim his deliverance even to those yet unborn.
All generations, past, present, and future honor you, O Lord! – from Psalm 22

Ash Wednesday Service, 2021

Ash Wednesday is the first day of Lent, the 40 days that precede Easter. In Scripture, the number 40 reminds us of the rainy days and nights that Noah spent on the ark, of the years that Israel spent in the wilderness after the Exodus, and of the time Jesus spent in the wilderness facing temptation after His baptism. For us, Lent is an invitation to spend 40 days of renewal, 40 days to prepare ourselves to hear and absorb the amazing Good News of Easter. It is a season during which many Christians devote themselves more deeply to study, prayer, service, and even fasting or sacrifice. May this season reminds us that we are sinners who depend on God’s love and grace to overcome sin and death and that the resurrection of Jesus means that our mortality will give way to resurrection and new life.

What’s Going Around

“What’s Going Around” – Dr. Bill Pyle

Praise the LORD.
How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and fitting to praise him!
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
The LORD sustains the humble but casts the wicked to the ground.
His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse, nor his delight in the legs of the warrior;
The LORD delights in those who fear him.
