For everything God made that is good, there is a counterfeit. In Proverbs 9, we see wisdom calling out, inviting people to live as God intended. But we also hear the loud voice of Folly, making a similar plea but with a much different result. How we hear and respond to these two calls makes all the difference.

The Journey of Wisdom - Proverbs 4:1-27
Wisdom is a personal journey. God invites us to walk with him as we discover the life he has for us. He calls on us to listen to those who have walked before us, and to invite others to join us on this same path. The fourth chapter of Proverbs is an invitation to seek and to find the life God created us to live in community with others.

Life Goals (Proverbs 1:1-7)
To begin this year, we are taking the challenge together to read the "daily proverb" each day from the beginning of the year through March 31, while we study the book of Proverbs on Sunday morning. This week, we looked at the opening of the book of Proverbs, looking at the kind of life it promises and where to begin to attain this life.

What Does God Want for Christmas? Your Heart
On Christmas Eve, we finished our series about what God wants from us this Christmas. We can give him all that he asks, but if we give it grudgingly, we are holding back from him what he wants the most: our hearts.

What Does God Want for Christmas? All of You! (Romans 12:1-2)
In our final week of combined services, Rev. Daryl Hope of St. Stephens brought the message. After all God as done--"In view of his mercy," as the text says--what is a reasonable gift to bring to God. It's all of us: our bodies and our minds, to be changed and transformed and to know him.
It was a wonderful four weeks of services with our brothers and sisters from St. Stephens. We really experience the presence of God as he met with us as we united together for worship. We are so grateful to Rev. Hope and St. Stephens for hosting us and being our guests these four weeks. It has been an honor and a blessing to worship with you.
