Fulton FCC

Rev. Dr. Mandy Tarpening, Chaplain at Culver-Stockton College, filled in the pulpit offering a stirring sermon on Luke 17:11-19!

This one is about the nature of faith and when we feel like we don’t have enough. In the end, it’s more about who our faith is in than how much we have. The text of the day was Luke 17:5-10. 

This one wraps up our stewardship series, A Chorus of Generosity. In it, Rev. Will talks about two different ways of living: glory or cross. The main text was Luke 16:19-31. 

This one is about how Jesus seeks out and saves the lost whenever we may wander. The text of the day was Luke 15:1-10. 

This one kicks off our stewardship series. It introduces our theme, A Chorus of Generosity, while also talking about Jesus’ challenging words about the cost of discipleship. 

This one is about Jesus being a bit of a party pooper, at least according to the World’s standards. Rev. Will talks about how Jesus keeps company with those in low places. The text of the day was Luke 14:1, 7-14. 

This one is about Jesus’ refusal to let rules and propriety get in the way of bringing the Kingdom of God to people who need it. The text was Luke 13:10-17. 

This one deals with some sayings of Jesus that could be potentially misinterpreted. In it, Rev. Will talks about Jesus’ want to give the Holy Spirit so would experience grace, mercy, and freedom. The text was Luke 12:49-56. 

This one is about how Jesus offers good news amid anxiety and worry, that God’s attitude toward us is one of delight and grace. The text is Luke 12:32-40. 

This one is about The Lord’s Prayer and how it shows us what we get wrong with prayer. Because it was our Christmas in July, there’s a Christmas tinge to the sermon too. The text of the day was Luke 11:1-13.

This one is how we want to justify ourselves. In it Rev. Will talks about how Martha used her service and care of Jesus to do so. The text of the day was Luke 10:38-42. 

In this devotion, Rev. Will talks the time Jesus gave his disciples a “do not bring list” for their trip.

In this devotion, Rev. Will talks about Jesus’ stubbornness and why it’s good for us. 

This one continues our little series in Galatians. In it, Rev. Will talks about the freedom Christ gives and how the Holy Spirit guides us to use it for others. The main text was Galatians 5:1, 13-26.  

This one begins a little three week series in Galatians. In it, Rev. Will talks about how the gospel levels all things, and I’m not talking about construction. 

This devotion talks about ‘s shalom and what it means for us. 

This one is about how the Holy Spirit is given to us so we can see God's grace and action in our lives after we go through the valley of the death. The text was John 16:12-15.

This devotion is about Jesus’ prayer for you in the upper room. 

This one wraps up our series in Revelation. In it, Rev. Will talks about how God’s movement toward us provides hope and meaning for our lives. 

This one continues our series in Revelation. In it, Rev. Will talks about both our need to control things and how we are all a little bit afraid of the dark. 

This one continues our series through Revelation. In it, Rev. Will goes a little rogue because his sermon didn't fit with worship as our kids and youth led it. Inspired by the Spirit, he talked about God's care and love for us as a parent for a child and how we practice heaven together at Church.

This one is a meditation on Psalm 23, talking about how a chance encounter with a Grandmother's gift brought the Psalm home. 

Continuing our series through Revelation, here we catch a glimpse of Jesus shepherding his people through a great ordeal. Rev. Sally Robinson of Columbia Older Adult Ministries pinch hits on this one.
