Pastor Ryan Emmons’ February-March 2022 sermon series, “Encountering Missions”, looks at the “big story of God’s mission: redeeming the whole of creation so that everyone and everything can worship. He uses an idea from Christopher Wright that God does not have a mission for the church; instead, he has a church for his Mission. Part 4 looks at caring for creation as a valid part of mission, as well as supporting those on the front lines of ministering to people across the world. Part 5 looks at viewing our everyday lives as mission wherever God has placed us and in whatever we do right here and now.

February 6: Encountering Missions – Part 1
February 13: God’s Mission (Part 2)
February 20: The Mission to Worship (Part 3)
February 27: World Mission (Part 4)
March 6: Where We Live, Work and Play (Part 5)

Pastor Ryan Emmons’ January 2022 sermon series, “But Because He Said So”, looks at some of the times that Jesus asked people to do something that seemed crazy, and what happened when they took him at his word and did it anyway “because he said so”. The series is based on the story of the miraculous catch of fish in Luke 5. What can we learn from what, how and who Jesus asks, and the responses of people to his requests? How might this affect our responses to what Jesus asks us to do?

January 9: Part 1 – The Miraculous Catch of Fish
January 16: Part 2 – “Look, All I Know is This” (the man blind from birth)
January 23: Part 3 – “As I Have Loved” (the woman caught in adultery)
January 30: Sorry — due to a technical glitch this one didn’t get recorded.
