Today we hear a second version of the Baptism of Jesus. Last week, we heard the version where Jesus goes into the water with John as his baptizer. As Jesus rises out of the water, God's voice claims him as his Beloved Son. This week, the gospel of John tells a version where Jesus has already been baptized. Pastor Paige's sermon examines how John the Baptist testifies that Jesus is the long-awaited Son of God. Jesus also begins calling his followers. His invitation to trust in him, follow him as a disciple, and testify to his love extends to us today.

After the joy and surprise of God coming to dwell among us in his Son, as a baby born on Christmas Day, we are now moving into the season of hearing about Jesus' ministry as the Savior of the world. On this festival day of The Baptism of Our Lord, Pastor Paige's sermon focuses on what it means that the first time we see Jesus as an adult, he is being baptized by John at the Jordon River. At Jesus' baptism, God speaks! His words are wonderful for us to hear and to keep in our hearts as inspiration, comfort, and guidance for all of our days.

“Immanuel: God Is With Us” (Christmas Eve 2025 Worship Video)

Clicking the picture will take you to our YouTube channel for a recording of our 4:00 worship service.

Merry Christmas! Welcome to Reformation’s online Christmas Eve worship as we celebrate the birth of God made flesh, Jesus Christ. We hope that this time of music, Scripture, prayer, preaching, candlelight, and praise will open your heart to the wonder of the Christ Child.

In the Christmas Gospel of Luke 2:1-20, Joseph, Mary, and the infant Jesus are, at first, alone in the stable. After a while, they are surrounded by noise and clamor when the shepherds come rushing in to report the good news from the angels, that the Messiah has come. In this Christmas Eve sermon, Pastor Paige explores how, in our age of loneliness and isolation, God comes to each one of us through the birth of his Son. God doesn’t let anything come between him and the people who he created and loves. Through the wondrous birth of Jesus, who is Immanuel, God-with-us, we see that God will stop at nothing to forgive us, give us his grace, and fill us with his never-ending love.

We thank our young musicians for offering their talents in the worship of the newborn King tonight.

Let's be honest: do you ever wonder why Christmas often doesn't seem to change anything? We have a stretch of time that might feel magical, but pretty soon we go back to the "same old same old?" Where is the lasting difference? In today's sermon, Pastor Eric lifts up a vision of the true joy that the Savior's coming can bring, and challenges us to follow a path of preparation that will get us ready to experience true transformation.

The gospel reading for Thanksgiving Eve this year is from John 6:25-35, a story from right after Jesus fed over 5,000 people with a little bit of fish and bread. The recipients of this gift were focused on the traditions God established with their ancestors, instead of on Jesus who gave them the gifts of God in the present moment. Pastor Paige explores how Jesus is present with us today and how he invites us to look to him to satisfy the hungers of our bodies, minds, and souls.

Christ the King Sunday is the last Sunday in the Church calendar year. It's a good day to go back to the fundamental question, "Who am I?" in light of our faith in Jesus. Our lessons, especially from Colossians 1:11-20, help us ground our identity in Jesus' sacrifice on the cross for us. In this sermon, Pastor Paige helps us remember that Jesus bears the scars of the cross in his resurrected body, even as he reigns as our heavenly king. We don't have to wonder who we are or if we're doing enough for God to love us. All we have to do is look to Christ our King and to his wounds, and know that thanks to Jesus, we are healed and saved, forever.

“The day is coming, burning like an oven” (Malachi 4:1). As we approach the end of the Church calendar year, our readings focus on “the end times.” Talk about “the last days” often sounds like an ominous threat, and the words of the Old Testament prophet Malachi come across that way at first. But in this sermon, Pastor Eric centers us in the promise that God never changes, and God is love. The coming of Christ is not a warning about our destruction in the future, but a gift of healing that begins now by faith, and will come to fullness when Christ comes again. We hope you are encouraged and challenged!

All Saints' Sunday allows us to anchor our faith and our lives in Jesus' promise of the resurrection to eternal life. As we hear the names of those who have joined the church victorious in the past year, we give thanks for their lives and all the ways they blessed us. In this sermon, Pastor Paige highlights Jesus' and Paul's teachings from Luke 6:17-31 and Ephesians 1:11-23.

We are celebrating Reformation Sunday as well. We give thanks for the essentials of our faith that Martin Luther highlighted for the church and the world: God's Word Alone, Faith Alone, Grace Alone, and Christ Alone. In this sermon, Pastor Paige explores these gifts of Confirmation and the Reformation, to help all of us live out our faith in Jesus more fully and freely, for the sake of our neighbors.

"When the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?" It is a haunting question. But it is also an invitation: will we trust Jesus and follow him in lives of divine purpose? On this Commitment Sunday, we make estimates of giving for next year, investing in the mission of Christ in this time and place. Our readings today are not about money. They are about faith and mission. This is what stewardship is about: our faith, the Holy Spirit's call to mission, and the concrete commitments that flow from them. Join us to be encouraged and challenged to take the next step of faith in your life!

In today’s reading from 2 Kings 5:1-15, we meet Namaan, a commander of a foreign army and a reluctant recipient of a miracle of healing. In this story, it’s not only Namaan’s health that improves, but also his attitude toward God. He goes from being insulted that God’s prophet tells him to do a simple thing in order to be healed to wanting to give that same prophet a gift when he is made whole. In this sermon, Pastor Paige asks listeners to reflect on the gift of salvation they’ve received from God. She invites them to “rekindle the gift” of faith in Jesus and all that he has done for them, during our current stewardship season, and always.

With today’s service, we begin our annual stewardship focus. In a season of contention and strife, we may be tempted, as individuals and as a congregation, to shrink back, be quiet, and keep our faith to ourselves. This was the situation both the Old Testament prophet Habakkuk and the New Testament leader Timothy faced. But in challenging times, they were encouraged to step out boldly in faith, not as “culture warriors,” but as courageous witnesses to the saving power of Jesus. In this sermon, Pastor Eric challenges us to rekindle that kind of faith in our lives, so that we can not only receive, but also share, all the saving love and power Jesus has given us.

The parable for today from Luke 16:19-31 is vivid and powerful. There are two men on opposite sides of a chasm. One is wrapped in the love and security of our ancestor in the faith, Abraham. The other is in torment. Their positions in the parable are the exact opposite of what they experienced in life. Pastor Paige connects this parable to another part of our worship service, Confession & Forgiveness. She asks listeners to consider what actions they are leaving “undone” and what chasms have started forming in their lives as a result. On the other hand, she asks what they could accomplish, for the sake of our neighbors, if they tapped into the love and grace that Jesus freely gives us.
