Call the Midwives
Date: May 9, 2021
Speaker: Lynn Fleshman
Exodus 1:8-22
In Exodus 1, the people of God are miserable. They’ve been in hard labor for a long time, and they’re crying out for a deliverer. As the nation of Israel is about to be re-born, we’re introduced to two midwives, Shiprah and Puah, who fear God and defy the King of Egypt. In this talk, Lynn helps us think about what it means to fear God and how that fear affects both the outcome of this story and the way we relate to God today.

Just As He Said

Speaker: Jaron Scott
Exodus 1:1-7
As we look at the first chapter of Exodus, Jaron connects it to the story of God and his people so far. This book is a continuation of that story, and the opening verses highlight a few major themes. God is the primary influence in the life of his people, and we can trust him to make things happen, just as he said.

Speaker: Travis Aicklen
God leads Israel out of slavery and into the wilderness. It's a place of training and temptation, of miraculous provision and disorienting paradoxes. In this talk, Travis helps us think about what God might have wanted to teach his people during this season and what he might have for us in similar times.

Family on Mission, Part 2
Date: Apr 18, 2021
Speaker: Jaron Scott
Ephesians 4:7-16
In part two of this series, Jaron introduces a game plan for going forward. Jesus Christ laid the groundwork for our mission, and he has given each of us gifts for engaging this mission. As we use those gifts in submission to him and in cooperation with one another, we grow together. In this next season, we want to equip every member of Christ's Church to use their gifts and work together as we pursue five avenues of ministry: reaching, connecting, gathering, caring, and discipling.

Family on Mission, Part 1
Date: Apr 11, 2021
Speaker: Jaron Scott
Ephesians 2:17-19
Christ’s Church is a family on a mission. Because we’re God’s family and we’re living under God’s rule, we are a family living in peace. This peace is both vertical (peace with God) and horizontal (peace with each other). Jaron encourages those who are enjoying peace with God to take a few practical steps as we live in peace with one another.

John 11
Jesus hears that a close friend is on the verge of death, and instead of rushing to his aid, Jesus waits. The story that unfolds in this chapter shows us a glimpse into the future glory that awaits the resurrected Jesus and into the life he gives now to all his disciples who are facing death.
