Making Room
“For Restoration” (10:30 AM Blended)
Text: Revelation 21:1-5 Our lives sometimes take us to places that feel like dead ends but God is a God who is always bringing us good news and new beginnings: “See how I am making all things new.” God isn’t finished with creation yet and his mercies are new for us each day.

“For the Unexpected” (10:30 Blended)
Text: Exodus 3:1-5 The story of Moses and the burning bush is one that teaches us that God’s presence at any given place and time transforms ordinary moments into holy moments. Are we prepared to find that God may be at work in us and in others in the most unlikely and unexpected of circumstances?

“For Self” (10:30 AM Blended)
Text: Luke 2:4-7 The story begins with Mary and Joseph getting ready for the birth of Jesus and not finding room at the inn. In the crowded busyness of our lives, do we turn away the Savior as well or can we learn to make room for the Prince of Peace in our lives- even when his presence makes demands of us?
“For Self” (9:00 AM Traditional)
Text: Luke 5:12-16 Our Lord sets an example for us even as we go about the business of caring for others: to go off to a lonely place to pray. Do we allow room in our lives for the quiet and self-care we need in order to be our best for those around us?
