- Oct 16, 2016“Eat them! Eat them! Here they are!”
“Eat them! Eat them! Here they are!”Corinthians 5:14-20“How do you know that you don’t like it if you haven’t tried it?” We’ve all heard that question from our parents, and maybe others, and perhaps we’ve evenasked the question. Give it a try...you may like it! After all, what is now our favorite at one time was brand new! This Sunday were using Seuss’ Green Eggs and Hamto get excited about inviting others to give Jesus a try. Nervous about sharing about your faith? Come see how you can become more like Sam-I-Am!
- Oct 9, 2016“Can You Hear?”
“Can You Hear?”Luke 4:14-21Can you hear them? The quiet whispers all around us of those crying out for help. Oh, you may not be able to hear them with your ears. You may need to listen with your spiritual senses. But it is so important that you hear! ThisSunday we’ll listen with Horton Hears a Who and try to hear the voices of those we are called to help. When we do, we find that we hear the very voice of God!
- Oct 2, 2016 “Buttering an Upside Down World”
“Buttering an Upside Down World”Corinthians 13:4-7 Matthew 5:38-39
We’re getting worse at getting along! Violent acts of racism, religious expression, and different philosophical perspectives are rampant. Most of the time we shake our heads and wring our hands. What to do? This Sunday we’re using Dr. Seuss’ The Butter Battle Book to reveal how acts of aggression towards one another leave everyone a loser. God’s way is very different. It requires embracing the radical practice of authentic love! - Sep 25, 2016“You Are Enough, Plain and Simple!”
“You Are Enough, Plain and Simple!”
Matthew 6:28-34Isaiah 43:1Mark Twain said, “Comparison is the death of joy.” Yet we all do it...all the time! And we suffer the loss of our joy because of it. It’s an epidemic in our culture! This Sunday, we’ll look at Dr. Seuss’ 'Gertrude McFuzz' to see the foolish ways we compare ourselves to others. But that’s not the end of it: we’ll then hear God’s loud declaration that you are enough! Don’t miss this Sunday when we discover our true worth. - Sep 18, 2016Hanging Out in the Mud

The Cat In the Hat
Isaiah 1:15-20Revelation 21:1-5This Sunday we start our fall series, “It’s a Seusical Life: Discovering Creative Ways to Live as God’s Kids!” Dr. Seuss’s Cat in the Hat makes a good first impression: all he wants to do is have fun, but that fun leads to all kinds of messes and trouble. We’re kind of like this, wanting to pursue what seems right and fun to us, but discovering that when we live this way, our lives end up in a mess! Come this Sunday to see how God cleans up our messes and gives us a new start. It’s time for acleanstart!
