A six-part worship series called “A Jarring Christmas: Resisting Despair with Defiant Expectation” runs from November 30 to December 24, 2025 as we allow ourselves to be shaped by the upside down work of God in the world.

November 30 - The first message in the series, “New Hope,” is rooted in Matthew 24:37-44 and invites us into a posture of expectation.
December 7 - The second message in the series, “Enduring Peace,” is rooted in Matthew 3:1-12 and invites us to consider the harmony that comes through repentance.
December 14 - The third message in the series, “Genuine Joy,” is rooted in Matthew 11:2-11 and invites us to recognize the benefits of a life of service.
December 21 - The fourth message in the series, “Committed Love,” is rooted in Matthew 1:18-25 and invites us to explore the effect that the birth of Jesus was meant to have on us.
December 21 - A special fifth installment of our “A Jarring Christmas: Resisting Despair with Defiant Expectation” series will take place on Sunday, December 21, 2025 as we pause in the hustle and bustle of the season to acknowledge any grief that we might be feeling. Our annual observance of “Blue Christmas” will take place during Parables this year at 10:15 AM in the sanctuary.
December 24 - The final message in the series, “Keeping Watch,” is rooted in Luke 2:1-14 and will be offered as part of the Christmas Eve candlelight services of lessons and carols in the sanctuary and online at 4 PM and at 6 PM.


Contemporary worship takes place in-person and online at 9:15 AM and traditional worship takes place in person at 11:15 AM every Sunday.

All are welcome!
