This where we gather with each other to pray, hear God’s word, and accept Christ’s invitation to the Table.

DisciplesNet Worship #558: Epiphany 4 (Smith 01.31.2021)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

What does it mean that Jesus "spoke with authority?" You might think he spoke with surety or forcefulness, but Pastor Russ helps us understand that the authority that Jesus spoke with in Mark 1:21-28 was the authority of God's love for us that transforms the words of scripture into the word of God as we live them out.
Join us for 30 minutes of worship, prayer, scripture, a number of favorite hymns, and communion. You may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me." If you would like to share with us at the table that goes beyond earthly boundaries of time, place, and structure, we ask that you prepare a piece of bread of some type and a drink such as grape juice, wine, or water. As we pray, our prayers extend to where you are. If you are unable to eat or drink, you may want to use a symbolic gesture or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us.

DisciplesNet Worship #557: Epiphany 3 (Phelps 01.24.2021)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

When we think about nets, we often think about nets that ensnare, where those in the nets don't want to be there. That causes some issues when we read about Jesus calling his disciples to "fish for people." But what if we consider those kinds of nets that provide safety to those who might fall and protection from harm to those who are small and helpless?
Pastor Deb takes a different look at fishing for people from Mark 1:14-20 and helps us understand this important perspective.
Join us for 30 minutes of worship, prayer, scripture, a number of favorite hymns, and communion. You may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me." If you would like to share with us at the table that goes beyond earthly boundaries of time, place, and structure, we ask that you prepare a piece of bread of some type and a drink such as grape juice, wine, or water. As we pray, our prayers extend to where you are. If you are unable to eat or drink, you may want to use a symbolic gesture or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us.

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

When Jesus called his first disciples, they left the lives they knew and followed him to places and things they did not know. How can we as Jesus' disciples in our world have that same boldness of faith to follow Jesus? Pastor Anita speaks from John 1:43-51 to help us toward living out that kind of faith.
Join us for 30 minutes of worship, prayer, scripture, a number of favorite hymns, and communion. You may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me."

DisciplesNet Worship #555: Epiphany (Shaw 01.10.2021)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

This time of year it's hard to shift between the stories of Jesus as a baby that we all know from Christmas to a time when Jesus was grown and teaching and challenging people to live in ways that God wants. Pastor Bob looks at the one story of Jesus as a boy that we have in the gospels, Luke 2:41-52 to help us understand why we need to let Jesus grow up; why we need to "let the child grow."
Join us for 27 minutes of worship, prayer, scripture, a number of favorite hymns, and communion. You may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me." If you would like to share with us at the table that goes beyond earthly boundaries of time, place, and structure, we ask that you prepare a piece of bread of some type and a drink such as grape juice, wine, or water. As we pray, our prayers extend to where you are. If you are unable to eat or drink, you may want to use a symbolic gesture or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us.

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

The name of Ebenezer Scrooge has been associated with a bad attitude, especially toward Christmas since Charles Dickens wrote "A Christmas Carol." However, shouldn't he be associated with repentance from the last bit of that tale?
