We will walk chronologically through different Gospel narratives beginning with “Palm Sunday” and concluding with “Easter Sunday.” As we pause and reflect upon Jesus’ journey to the Cross, we hope that you walk away encouraged, informed, thankful, and more in the image of Christ.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

“It Came Upon a Midnight Clear” is one of the most beloved Christmas hymns ever composed. It was written by pastor Edmund Sears in 1849 who found himself deeply saddened by the sin and the strife that the world was facing. He felt as though people couldn’t even see the joy of Christmas and the fulfilment of the scriptures because they were so blinded by all of the ugliness of humanity. Sadly, as much as things change, they oftentimes seem very much the same. We still find ourselves looking at the world around us asking ourselves, “Does anyone get it? Do I even get it? Do I fully understand what is happening or what we are celebrating this Advent season?”<br />
<br />
This year we are using the theme “Midnight Clear” to guide us throughout our Advent preparation. There is a sense in which the world in silent stillness lays, waiting for the promised Messiah – and yet in the midst of that, the darkness seems to still cover the land. We are trapped somewhere between the darkness of humanity and the joy that comes in the morning. I hope you will join us as we venture through the long dark night into the joyous celebration of the birth of our Savior. As we journey throughout the Old Testament, the Prophets, and the Gospels we will hear the story of how Jesus saves us from the dark night of our soul. Midnight Clear is a perfect way to look at our Advent time together – that even in the midnight hour, when the light is all but faded, we can still see clearly the hope that we have in the birth of Jesus Christ. Join us each Sunday as we look at a different aspect of Midnight Clear. If you can’t please join us on our Facebook Live feed or catch up online. However you chose to be involved, we pray you have a blessed Christmas, filled with the hope and the joy of Christ.<br />
<br />
Blessings,<br />
Pastor Matt<br />

<div class="font_8" style="font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="font_8" style="font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: , sans-serif;">In our new sermon series we will be exploring the book of I Timothy and lo oking at it through the lens of “Discipleship.” The word “disciple” may conjure up many ideas in your mind: some good and some not so good. However, a disciple is simply someone who sits under another person for the sole purpose of learning and imitating his life. In I Timothy we learn about a young man named Timothy who sat under Paul’s teaching and as he learned to pastor the church in Ephesus. As we go through the text for the next six weeks we’ll look at how we might become more faithful followers of Christ as we sit under his teaching. My main goal throughout our time together is to encourage us to read scripture, learn to understand scripture and then begin to live that scripture out in our lives. As we involve ourselves in that process of DISCIPLESHIP, our thoughts, words, and actions will begin to more closely reflect the Savior that we follow. I hope you will join us in this exciting journey over the next six weeks.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="color: #303030; font-family: , , sans-serif;">Do people ever ask you, “Just what does your church believe as Presbyterians?” Let’s be honest, maybe you even ask yourself that same question. </span></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Few are the people
these days that come to a church because of a certain theology. Most times we
attend a church based on certain ministries they offer. Maybe the location or
service times attract us. Maybe you wind up at a church because someone invited
you and you loved it, but you are a little unsure what it is that this church
believes.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Presbyterians have a very long history, one that dates back
to the Reformation in the 16<sup>th</sup> century. Our particular church has a
long history as well, being chartered in 1890. And with such a long history
it’s important for us, at different times, to look back and make sure that we
understand who we are and why we believe what we believe. In this preaching
series we will be looking at many of the things that make us distinct. The
easiest way to describe us might be to say that we are a
Reformed…Evangelical…Presbyterian Church. Each of those is a distinct marker
for us. Our goal over the next few months will be to help us as a church
understand our heritage – who we are and what it is that we believe. We will
look at many of the great doctrines of the Reformed Faith as well as the
practices that make us distinctly Presbyterian. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

be encouraged in your faith even as you grow deeper in your understanding of
God’s great work in our church. If you miss a sermon you can find it on our

<div class="font_8" style="font-size: 21px;">
<span style="font-family: , , sans-serif;"> Our theme for Advent this year is, “Hope Is On The Way.” For thousands of years the people of God had waited for a Messiah. They anxiously waited for the promised one to come so that they could finally proclaim that their Savior was here. And then it happened, on a cold night some 2000 years ago, in a manger fit for only the livestock, Jesus was born. And the sad reality was that most people missed it. They had waited so long, and when the Messiah finally came they were too blind to see. This Advent season we will be reminded once again that Hope came in the person of Jesus Christ. We will look at the unexpected way in which he came and what we need to do to prepare for his coming. Ultimately we will proclaim with all the angels that Hope Has Arrived in the person of Jesus Christ! I hope you will join us for this journey and that your heart will “prepare Him room” as Heaven and nature sing, all proclaiming that “Hope Is On The Way!”</span></div>

<span style="font-family: , , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">We spend a lot of time in the church talking about what the church is meant to be or how we’re supposed to act as Christians. And we spend lots of time and money buying books answering those questions. But sometimes we fail to do the easiest thing in the world…go to the source! This year we are going to be going through the Gospel of Mark verse by verse looking at the source, Jesus. We’ll look at his life, his ministry, his friends, his death, his resurrection – all of it. Every week we will ask the question “So what?” What does this mean for me as a disciple of Jesus or as one who wants to follow him more. So I hope you’ll join us on this long journey through the Gospel of Mark as we seek learn more and more about who Christ by watching him first hand.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I remember as a child thinking that Christmas could never
get here fast enough. Thanksgiving was merely a place holder telling me that it
was time to start counting the days until Christmas. There was so much longing.
Each day I would tear off the paper loop on the countdown chain and I would
open the little doors on the Advent calendar with one thought… “How soon can
Christmas get here?” Sadly, as an adult those days have passed. Now it seems
that it’s coming so fast and I’m filled with thoughts like, “I can’t wait for
the madness of Christmas to be over.” Sad isn’t it? What once was a serious
longing has now become something to simply get through. This year I want us to
go back to our longing – to a time when we anxiously awaited Christmas Day. And
not just for the presents, but for what we actually celebrate – the day when
Christ stepped into humanity and fulfilled God’s promise to redeem his people.
Over the next 4 weeks we will spend time looking at this idea of “Longing” in
scripture and we’ll look at it through the eyes of the Old Testament prophets,
John the Baptist, Mary and Joseph and finally You and Me. We’ll look at our
Longing through the lens of the Advent themes of Hope, Peace, Joy and Love; and
when we’re done we will hopefully be reminded of that childlike faith that
waits with anticipation for the gift of Jesus’ birth on Christmas day. I hope
you’ll join us each week as we prepare our hearts for the Lord to do an amazing
work in all of us. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Have you ever been hurt? <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Do you ever feel lost? <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Are you ever confused? <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Have you felt helpless to change the circumstances in your

<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Are you ever anxious, worried or afraid? <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">If you answered, “YES!” to any of those questions then I
think the next several weeks will be of great benefit to your life. Over the
coming weeks we are going to be talking about a new ministry to our church
called <b>Celebrate Recovery</b>. CR is a nationwide Recovery Ministry that
helps people deal with their hurts, habits, and hang-ups. The problem that many
Christians face is that we’ve been taught that to admit that we have hurts,
habits or hang-ups is bad and means that we lack faith or that we don’t trust
God. In fact the exact opposite is true! Acting like nothing is wrong with us
while our own health and the relationships around us suffer is the <i>true</i>
sign in our lack of trust in God. You can’t fix it yourself – you need the
Lord, and you need others. You need the Lord to change your heart and to offer
forgiveness and you need others to help you heal. That’s what we will be
talking about throughout our “Finding Freedom” sermon series. We will tackle
issues such as, <i>Admitting Our Need For Help, Coming Clean, Making Changes,
and Repairing Relationships</i>. But I want you to know this – this series is
not just based on feel good, pop psychology. It will be grounded in the word of
God and his promises for you as a follower of Him. My hope is that you will
join us each week, whether it’s at church or online, and that you will <i>Find
the Freedom</i> that God so desperately desires you to have.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial";"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: , , sans-serif;">As summer comes to a close and the school year kicks off we will begin a new sermon series as well. This Fall we will dive into the book of I Timothy and look specifically at the place of the church in the world. I Timothy was a letter written by Paul to his friend Timothy who he mentored in the ministry. Timothy was placed over the church in Ephesus and charged with making sure that they held to the gospel message of Jesus Christ at all costs. I believe this message is as relevant now as it was 2000 years ago. At a time when the church is getting swept up into the mainstream culture and being forced to deal with such things as the prosperity gospel, secularism, relativism, and a constantly changing social climate we need, perhaps now more than ever, to hear a clear message of orthodoxy; and one of the best places to do that is the book of I Timothy. I hope you will join us each week as we look in depth at this wonderful letter to all church members and leaders. Please join us at 8:30 or 11:00 at the church or listen to the messages online if you’d like. </span></span></span><br />
