DisciplesNet Worship #479: Proper 14 (Smith 08.11.2019)

to watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

What is it about faith that gives it power? Pastor Russ uses the scripture from Hebrews 11:1-3 & 8-16 to talk about what faith is and isn't and how faith has a place in our lives just as it did in our ancestors in the faith.
Join us for 28 minutes of prayer, scripture, a number of favorite hymns, preaching as well as 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 #310, “Faith Takes a Step” (Webb 07.03.2016)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

When things are going wrong, things are broken, where can we turn? Well, for one, to our faith in God—to our faith that God is always ready to help. And sometimes all it takes is one step. Our worship today looks at the woman who believed if she could just touch the hem of Jesus’ robe, then it would make her whole. What might such a step in faith look like in your life? Our message this week is brought by Rev. Charles Webb, from Mark 5:21-34. We hope that you will join us with this inspiring message, song, and prayer. Continue reading →

DisciplesNet Worship #290, “So Close” (Smith 02.14.2016)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here

It is oh, so tempting in our faith to operate with our own views and practices at the center of everything--the world.  Yet Jesus calls us far beyond this way of belief.  Our worship today looks at how difficult yet necessary it is to take the higher, better plan that Jesus has for being the church that may disagree on most everything else, but can be united in love.

Where is God when tragedy hits? How does one move forward when it seems that life is broken beyond repair? Whether you've experienced tragedy in life, know someone who has, or live in dread at the thought of this happening, we hope our message today will be of help. Today Pastor Deb Phelps brings our message, drawing from Paul's letter to the Romans (Chapter 8:28,31-39), the miracle stories, and her family's own personal tragedy. Continue reading →

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

When the storms of life come, how can we make it through? Will our faith be enough? That's the question we look at this week in worship, with a challenging message from Rev. Russ Smith of DisciplesNet Church, speaking from the Gospel of Mark 4:26-43.   Continue reading →

DisciplesNet Worship #249, “Sufficient” (DisciplesNet Phelps 05.10.2015)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

So what all does one have to do, to come to Christ? People and books will tell you many things that you have to believe and do, tests you have to pass. Yet in today’s message, guest preacher Dean Phelps invites us to look at something at the heart of the matter, looking at Matthew 16:13-16. What do you think? How might this look in your life?
Our worship is 26 minutes long, with singing, prayer, scripture, all designed for you to join in as suits you. We hope that you'll be blessed by worshiping with DisciplesNet, finding ways your own faith in God can grow in theses trying times.

As we do every week, our time together includes a time of communion (breaking of the bread) where you may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me." Continue reading →
