Current Opportunities

In both our church life and our personal lives, we are busy, over-committed, and scattered (or scatter-brained). We keep hearing the Spirit chastise us with words like simplify … scale back … focus.  With that in mind, our Ministry Year theme will be Centering. In other words, the goal is to make sure we are centered in Christ. We want to refocus our personal lives and our church life so that we’re focused on what is most important.  In each one of our worship services, we are helping participants recenter their lives. And in our larger church life, we want to emphasize simplicity and a basic focus on Jesus.

For the sake of simplicity, our sermon series will walk slowly through the Gospel of John. Although this gospel can be deep and mysterious, the sermon series itself will be entirely uncomplicated. Providentially, the good news in John is expressed with simple-yet-profound images such as water, bread, light, etc. These images will help us focus on what’s most important. Moreover, the Gospel of John has seven great “I AM” statements that will be the focus of our decorations and the inspiration for an art project. These seven statements can help us stay centered in Christ.

“I AM the bread of life.” — John 6:35
“I AM the light of the world.” — John 8:12; 9:5
“I AM the gate for the sheep.” — John 10:7
“I AM the good shepherd.” — John 10:11
“I AM the resurrection and the life.” — John 11:25
“I AM the way and the truth and the life.” — John 14:6
“I AM the true vine.” — John 15:1

If you’re feeling busy, over-committed, or scattered, we hope you’ll join us this ministry year.
