A message from the series “Christ the King.” This Sunday we spend celebrating the sovereignty and glory of Jesus Christ — the one who has inaugurated the kingdom of God. To him God the Father has given all authority and righteousness, as the Lord of all. Jesus is both fully human and fully divine, and we hold this truth in understanding his identity. The scriptures are full of imagery which show us God’s unique glory, including the famous text of Revelation in which Jesus is the King of kings and Lord of lords. Let us celebrate the eternal reign of King Jesus!

A message from the series “Thankfulness.” There are people in our lives that are truly gifts. They bless us in many ways and we know that they are special. We often are taught to express our gratitude to that person directly (which is great), but how frequently do we remember to thank God for these people? How might our relationship (both with the person and) with God change, when we go to him in prayer of thanksgiving for the people in our lives? God has given us every good thing, including the people we have grown to love. We are thankful for you, our congregation. It is a blessing to serve with and for you in this Church that God has called us all to. Thanks be to God for this amazing place, community, congregation, staff, and support who all pour into God’s vision for this Church to worship him.

A message from the series “All Saints.” All Saints Sunday is a tradition observed annually in the Church. It is on this first Sunday of November that we celebrate the lives of persons in our lives who have died this year and are now with Christ in eternity. An important part of understanding for us regarding our identity as God’s beloved people includes learning about our place within “the communion of saints”. We, the Church, believe there is a spiritual connection that unites those who have gone before us, ourselves, and those who will come after us. How mysterious and amazing our God is, that he bonds us together in his love in such a community. Today, we pause to honor and reflect on those saints among us whose lives have pointed us to Jesus. As the Apostle Paul writes in-depth about the resurrection in 1 Corinthians 15, may we be reminded that we belong to Christ and in him we share in the resurrection of glory that is to come.
