Upcoming Worship Themes
Does Your Jesus Get Angry?
February 5-Susan Boyer

In the Church of the Brethren we tend to have a Jesus who doesn't get mad. He invites the children to come to him. He calms the storms. He feeds the multitude. We like the Jesus who keeps his emotions in check. What do we do with the angry Jesus? Mark 1:40-45, John 2:13-16.


The New Lord’s Prayer

February 12-Susan Boyer

Jesus taught his disciples to pray by teaching them what we call the Lord’s Prayer. Because of it’s masculine language we don’t use it very often. What are the elements of this prayer of Jesus? How can we hear it anew? Matthew 6:9-13

 

 

Esau

February 19-Tom Hostetler

What is the story of Jacob and Esau about? What do we learn about God from a family in conflict?

Genesis 27:21-24

 

 

First Sunday of Lent

Bethel: The House that Holds Our Dreams

February 26-Susan Boyer

Jacob is on the run when he curls up on a piece of dirt to rest, a stone for a pillow.  We expect a fitful night filled with dreams of his wrongdoing.  But instead he finds the ladder to God. 

Genesis 28:10-19

 

 


"You have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.' But I tell you, Do not resist an evil person... Give to the one who asks of you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you." Matthew 5:38-42

How has this scripture shaped Church of the Brethren?
