Young love

Sometimes we call it puppy love - that over-the-top kind of love that is somewhat unique to young people. God talks about young love too; he says, "I remember the devotion of your youth" (Jeremiah 2:2). It is God's desire that we retain the enthusiasm and excitement of the devotion we experienced when we first came to know Jesus. Through the words of the prophet, God calls us back to the "devotion of our youth." Join us this Sunday, 10 a.m. as we welcome our special guests, the Bushell Family, to lead us in worship.

Don't miss this!

You've received the invitation -- now don't wait 'til the last minute to send back the reply card, pick out that gift, fill the car with gas... because you never know what might come up, and you don't want to miss the party. In Matthew 25 Jesus tells a parable about 10 bridesmaids who are getting ready for the celebration. Five of them, however, miss the party because they weren't ready. How foolish! How foolish of us not to be prepared for Jesus' return. Be ready, because you don't want to miss it. See you this Sunday, Apr 25, 10 a.m.

Not my problem

You're a guest at a wedding and the bar runs out of drinks. "Not your problem," right? That's Jesus' initial comment when they run out of wine at a wedding he attends (John 2:1-11). But then Jesus makes it his problem, and he sets things right. Jesus makes our problems his -- and he's not stingy about it. You can raise a glass to that! Join us this Sunday as we begin a series called, "Four weddings and a funeral."
