Pentecost Makes All the Difference
Pentecost is one of the three great festivals of the church year (Christmas and Easter are the other two). It marks the birthday of the New Testament Church and the great harvest of souls won by Christ. The Church is dressed in red to remind us of the tongues of fire atop the disciples’ heads, as well as the blood of the martyrs, which was the seed of the church. Join us, because Pentecost Makes All the Difference! See you…
Who is God?
Who is God? That’s actually a very tough question to answer. And depending on what you are going through at the current moment in your life, it could change. Not that He changes, but during a time of confusion, He listens; during a time of uncertainty, He guides; during a time of sorrow, He comforts; during a time of joy, He rejoices; during a time of weakness, He is powerful. Join us as Pastor Gaertner takes us on a journey-Saul’s…
The Good Shepherd Loves You Lots
The Good Shepherd is one of the most familiar pictures of the Lord in all of Scripture. The way he cares for his lambs and sheep (believers), and the flocks (Christian congregations) they are part of is so comforting and so reassuring. No wonder it is a favorite of the sheep, and the early shepherds (pastors) God has called to serve each flock of the Good Shepherd. This will be the final time St. Paul’s pastor preaches to the flock…
Waiting? Yes! Doing Nothing? No!
This weekend the NFL kicks off its 104th season. Each Sunday, Thursday or Monday, you follow your favorite NFL team. Each Spring, the NFL holds a draft. There can be one and only one number pick in the draft each year. But God operates by a different set of rules. He’s not limited to a single number one pick. He has chosen you to be his number one choice. In fact, you are so valuable to him that he would…
Easter Continues
The Easter decorations have been taken down. The Easter candy bowl is empty. But that doesn’t mean that the impact of the Easter message has been left behind. “Easter Makes a Difference” is the theme for this weekend’s worship at St. Paul’s. Join us and find out how Easter continues to make an impact on your life every day, not just the day the Christian church celebrates our Lord’s resurrection.
Confrontation
No one really likes confrontation. No one wants to be told they are doing something wrong. No one really likes to confront others who have done something wrong. We avoid confrontation. We’d much rather have peace. So we deal with situations by either hiding them or ignoring them. Join us and see why confrontation is absolutely necessary. Find out how confrontation saved the Apostle Paul, and how it can save you too.
My Baptism Still Matters
For many, their baptism took place before they were old enough to remember. Does something like a person’s baptism that happened 15, 40, even 80 years ago still matter? Many would say, “No.” This Sunday, as St. Paul’s celebrates Christian education for all ages, many may be surprised to find out that “Yes, My Baptism Still Matters.”
Easter 4 Worship
You can also watch on our Vimeo page. It’s not always obvious, but there are some heavily-armed men and women in suits who watch, guard and protect the President of the United States. Those protectors of presidents are the United States Secret Service. Wherever the president goes, the Secret Service goes. Would you like to be closely protected like that? God has his own Secret Service who watches you, guards you and protects you. But it’s not always obvious that…
