Although he was fully God, Jesus was also fully human, and that is why he is able to be the atonement for our sin and help us in our weakness.

God is Creator of Heaven and Earth. Simple, right? But it does raise a few questions. What are the things we can all agree on?

The first phrase in the Apostle’s Creed is “I Believe in God, the Father Almighty”. What does this tell us about God, and what implications does it have for us?

In winter 2026, Pastor Ryan explored the claims of the Apostles’ Creed. His focus was the basic statements of faith that all Christians should be able to agree on. Here is the creed:

I believe in God,
the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ,
his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and he will come again to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting.

Amen.

Fishing for people? What does that mean, exactly? It can’t mean tricking them into salvation the way a lure tricks a fish onto the hook. Pastor Ryan answers this question in this sermon.

God doesn’t ever force himself on us. He gives us signs of his presence and waits for us to notice Him, just like He gave Moses the sign of the burning bush. Paying attention and noticing these signs open us up to hear from Him directly.

Sometimes we sense that God wants us to do something, but we don’t think we are capable of whatever it is. In this story about Elijah, we see that all things are possible if God is with us.
