The Season of Lent

February 19, 2026 by Andy Croel

Lent is a season of forty days (excluding Sundays) which begins on Ash Wednesday and leads up to Easter Sunday.  Lent is a season of preparation for Easter and has traditionally been a time of prayer, fasting, and preparation for the Church. As we observe Lent and practice spiritual disciplines, the church has found that God meets us in powerful ways.

This Lenten season we will be looking at several of the “I Am” statements of Jesus in the Gospel of John.
February 22 – I Am the true vine (John 15:1-11)
March 1 – I Am the good shepherd (John 10:1-21)
March 8 – I Am the bread of life (John 6:22-71)
March 15 – I Am the light of the world (John 9:1-41)
March 22 – I Am the resurrection and the life (John 11:1-44)
March 29 – I Am the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:1-14)

If you want to learn more about fasting – there is information here.
Our church staff are reading the daily devotional “Jesus Asking” by JD Walt, you can listen to the daily podcast “The Wake up Call” that will cover the book, if you want to follow along.
If you do not listen to podcasts – you can sign up here and receive a daily email with the same reading.

Another book that has been helpful is called “UnOffendable” by Brant Hansen. It addresses anger, and we live in an anger saturated culture. Hansen’s argument is that by giving up the right to be offended, we are set free. The book is helpful in sorting out what we want to cultivate in our hearts. The link to the book is above, but you can also get it on audiobook.

Blue Christmas Worship

November 23, 2023 by Andy Croel

Our Blue Christmas Worship service will be held at 7:00 on Friday, December 15.

Sometimes the holiday season can be a difficult one if you are struggling or grieving. The Blue Christmas worship is a place where we can hear the good news of Christ’s birth in the midst of the real difficulties of life. This meaningful service has times of prayer as well as a message of hope for all of us during the Advent and Christmas season.

We hope you can join us!
