In today's gospel reading, Luke 13:10-17, Jesus heals a woman in the synagogue. Everyone witnessing this healing is surprised, not to mention the woman herself.

He does the same with the religious leaders who opposed him for healing someone on the Sabbath.

In today’s Gospel reading from Luke, Jesus sends out 70 workers to share the good news of the Kingdom of God, and to be laborers for God’s harvest. In this sermon, Pastor Paige asks listeners to imagine what it was like for the 70 to be guests as they traveled to the surrounding towns.

The Book of Revelation pulls back the curtain on the heavenly realm. It gives us a vision of the heaven that God promises for us and for all who trust in our crucified and risen Lord. In today’s sermon on Revelation 21:10, 22-22:5, Pastor Paige explores how this heavenly vision relates to a joyful occasion in the life of our congregation: receiving 26 new members! This passage gives us a good idea of how to live and serve others in our present time, as followers of the risen Jesus. It also gives us hope for the future, when the holy city will descend from heaven and we will worship God up close. Taking time to imagine this glorious vision renews our faith, fills us with hope, and helps us celebrate the growth of our congregation with great joy.

During the Easter season, our first reading follows the Book of Acts and teaches us how the early Christians came to faith and formed a community. In today’s reading from Acts 11:1-18, Peter undergoes a change of heart about who is allowed to follow Jesus, thanks to a vision from God. Peter’s experience, and his new conviction that God’s mercy and love is for everyone, creates a wave of change in the early church. In this sermon, Pastor Paige asks listeners to think about aspects of their life and faith where unlearning could lead to more joy, and to a deeper understanding of God’s purpose for their lives.

This Sunday is also known as “Good Shepherd Sunday.” We hear Psalm 23 and the gospel reading from John 10:22-30 about the ways that Jesus is our good shepherd.

The name for this day, Maundy Thursday, comes from the Latin word "mandatum," or "command." We remember Jesus' command to love one another as he first loves us. On this holy night, we engage in several special acts of worship: individual absolution (forgiveness) through the laying on of hands, ceremonial foot washing, and a remembrance of Jesus' institution of Holy Communion. In all these acts, we are drawn more deeply into the love of Christ. His love makes us whole, and sends us out to bring wholeness to the world around us.
