Stubborn in Prayer: When God Invites Persistent Prayer Pastor Nathan Moldenhauer So brothers and sisters, pray. Pray again. Pray tomorrow. Pray when you’re discouraged. Pray when you’re waiting. Pray when you don’t understand. Your God isn’t an unjust judge. He is your Father. He has chosen you. He loves you. He hears you.   The world might call it stubbornness. Jesus calls it faith. Faith keeps c...

Giants Must Fall Sermon Series: The Giant of Anxiety Reverend Ross Henzi Look back.  How many times has God carried you before?  How many prayers has he answered?  How many difficult times has he brought you through?  The God who was faithful then is faithful now. Ultimately, the answer to anxiety is not found within us.  David defeated Goliath because the Lord fought for him.  And we overcome anx...

Giants Must Fall: The Giant of Fear (Pastor Nathan Moldenhauer) Whatever you’re afraid of – whatever form the giant of fear standing down in the valley takes – it can be paralyzing. And it almost seems to grow bigger day by day. Fear does this, because we so often think we’re fighting this giant alone. I believe the lie that I’m alone, so maybe like King Saul I try to use tools and weapons, the th...

Giants Must Fall: The Giant of Anger (Genesis 4:1-16) Pastor Nathan Moldenhauer God forgives you. Christ loved you and gave himself up on the cross for you. Even for the sins we committed in anger. This is how the giant of anger falls – the forgiving, pursuing, gracious work of our God. In the end, this reading from Genesis 4 isn’t ultimately about Cain’s anger. It’s about the Lord’s pursuit of si...

Back to the Basics: Back to Grace (Reverend Ross Henzi) God looked inside of you and me and saw that there was nothing we could do to save ourselves. There was absolutely no way we were ever going to be able to meet his demand for perfection. As a result, our eternal future didn’t look very good. So, God did something about it. He took it upon himself. He sent his son. He had Jesus live the perfec...

Back to the Basics: Back to Worship Pastor Nathan Moldenhauer “Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord!” God bless us as we continue to go back to the basics. God bless us as we both go back ourselves and invite others too to go back to worship. God grant it. Amen.

As we continue with our sermon series, Back to the Basics, we hear about an amazing gift we’ve all been given, but unfortunately it doesn’t always get used, at least not the way it was intended. We don’t mean that to be the case. We recognize its importance. We understand how amazing it is. But for some reason, it gets neglected more than we care to admit. The gift we’ve been given is prayer. It’s...

BACK TO THE BASICS: BACK TO THE WORD (Reverend Ross Henzi) You and I are sinful human beings. There is nothing, absolutely nothing that we can do to contribute to or to earn our salvation. The only thing we deserve is death and damnation. Ah, but God the Father could not bear that thought. That’s why he sent his Son. Jesus came to do what we could not. He lived the perfect life God demands. He the...

Bold for the Only Name that Saves ~Pastor Nathan Moldenhauer What Jesus promised his disciples, he promises you. Whether it’s a trial before Jewish rulers and elders, or you feel like you’re on trial, God the Holy Spirit speaks through you – using the very Word and name that saved you. So, let’s try this again. You’re at that birthday party. You’re in the break room. You get coffee with your siste...

"The Making of a Bold and Confident Confession" Reverend Ross Henzi To you who are beginning your spiritual journey - as well as to those of you who have been on it for some time - keep holding onto your faith...keep living your faith...and keep sharing your faith. And when that journey proves to be tiresome or difficult (because it will), be that little engine that could.  I think I can...

Time in God's Word with Pastor Moldenhauer!

Friends, this is still how it works. Our living Jesus hides in plain sight and takes us from yearning to burning. From disappointment and despair to joy and peace. He doesn’t do it with a grand gesture. He doesn’t show up and perform a great miracle. He opens the Scriptures to us. Jesus leads us to see all he has won and accomplished at the cross and the empty tomb. He has redeemed us from sin and...

Jesus Lives to Give You Proof and Peace -  Pastor Nathan Moldenhauer Will even Christians, will even believers struggle and wrestle? Sure, sometimes. Yet because our living Jesus still shows up –still speaking peace, still providing proof – you are always blessed. Amen. “These are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his na...
