It’s the last week of the church year! We will celebrate the conclusion of another year by rejoicing together in the majesty and reign of our Lord Jesus Christ. Come fellowship with us this Sunday as we worship God and study Colossians 1:11-20, a passage dedicated to honoring Jesus Christ as our only Lord.

In the days preceding Jesus’s crucifixion, our Lord gave his disciples one final word of instruction. This teaching, though, was unlike others because it foretold future events and encouraged the disciples to be faithful through persecution. Read all about it in Luke 21:5-19, and then come worship with us on Sunday as we study the passage together!

In Luke 18:9-14, Jesus tells another parable, this time about a Pharisee and a tax collector who each went to church and prayed to God. But the two men went home with very different results. Come worship with us on Sunday morning as we explore this passage together!
Sounds like a good idea, doesn’t it? We should always remember to pray – especially when the parable contained in Luke 18:1-8 begins with that very instruction and explanation. Is Jesus telling us to nag God until we get what we want? What’s prayer all about? Come worship with us on Sunday morning, and we’ll explore this passage together.

Every church wants to grow, right? In fact, spreading the gospel is something Jesus commanded us to do. But growth for the sake of numbers isn’t always healthy – especially when it comes to “sheep-stealing.” What does this have to do with Luke 17:11-19, the story in which Jesus heals ten lepers and only one returns to thank him? Come worship with us on Sunday and we’ll explore together!

This Sunday, I’ll be preaching from Luke 17:5-10, a passage of scripture that may sound familiar but probably sounds strange in a couple of places. At least, that’s how I feel about it! Did Jesus really want us to go around replanting trees in lakes?
As you might know, this Sunday we’ll also hold an installation service to install Mt. Haley’s new pastor. It’s only somewhat tongue-in-cheek that the morning sermon’s title is “It’s Not About Me.” Come worship with us and find out what all this is about!
–Pastor David
The prophet Jeremiah lived during the time when Judah was being conquered by Babylon. Jeremiah constantly warned the people of God’s judgment because of their sins. Yet when it came down to the end – with Jerusalem surrounded and under siege – God told Jeremiah to buy a field. Why would God do such a thing? Come worship with us this Sunday, and we’ll see what we can learn from this passage.

One of the famous sayings of Jesus is this: “You cannot serve both God and money.” On Sunday, September 19, I will preach on Luke 16:1-15, which records these words of Jesus. This passage also includes a rather confusing parable about a dishonest manager. What can this all mean? And how does it apply to today’s society? Come worship with us and let’s discover together!
Also, this Sunday, we will be singing a song which might be unfamiliar to you. It’s called “You are Holy.” If you’d like to brush up on this song before Sunday morning, here’s a good music video to show you how it goes. See you then!

This coming Sunday, September 12, I will be preaching from 1 Timothy 1:12-17. This passage includes a dramatic statement of the gospel of Jesus Christ, preceded by the words “Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance.” Sounds important, doesn’t it?
See you Sunday morning!
