Added a new (old) sermon recording

Carey and I were out of town unexpectedly for Sunday, February 20, so I recorded a video of myself preaching my sermon titled "Commandos, Spies, and Secret Missions" and used that video for the sermon during the worship service on that Sunday. The manuscript for that sermon has been posted since I first preached it in August of 2008, but I've now added a link in that post so you can download the recording.

Remember the Mission

Reading: 1 Corinthians 11:17-26

We celebrated communion together last Sunday, so our sermon was centered on that. The Lord's Supper is incredibly multi-faceted, but this time we focused on how it involves our act of commitment.

No More Normal: Pray

Reading: Psalm 51

We ended our "No More Normal" series with a focus on prayer culminating in a week of prayer. To put it succinctly, prayer is powerful, and we're not likely to get out of the rut without making that connection to God through prayer.

No More Normal: Connect

Reading: Acts 2:1-4, 42-47; 1 Timothy 6:11-21

Sorry for the late posting of this sermon; it's been a busy week. Our focus for last Sunday was on the need for building genuinely loving connections within the body of Christ.

No More Normal: Serve

Reading: John 13:31-35; Luke 10:1-24

Here we go with more meddling. Our focus this week was on the need not only for service, but also for service done with a servant's heart. In other words, do we really love our neighbors?
