Cari’s Sermon: This week I am copying over for you the end of my sermon because I continue to think that it is important for us to focus our energies on these things:

You see Church, God has given to us God’s most precious property – God’s only Son.
What will we do with him?
Will we enter into God’s covenant of love and participate with God’s Holy Spirit in order to see transformation happen in our own lives? Continue reading “Wednesday Word 11/16/2011” »

Several weeks ago I prayed this prayer by Anselm right before my sermon. May it be for us the prayer from the innermost place of ourselves:

“Lord, because you have made me, I owe you the whole of my love; because you have redeemed me, I owe you the whole of myself; because you have promised so much, I owe you all my being.  Continue reading “Wednesday Word 11/9/2011” »

First I want to thank so many people for their help this past weekend for our beloved Lee’s funeral and our Testimony and Song Service. Matt Stutts personally printed and folded ALLLLLL of the bulletins for both for services. LaNella put together the bulletins even though she was in California! Billy Kluttz was the organist / pianist for Lee’s funeral where he had to quickly practice with two soloists.

Entering into relationship: As you heard me preach on Sunday as Christ entered into relationship with us by leaving everything heavenly to be with us, so Christ wants us to enter into relationship with one another. I pray that you have been praying for who is the person that the Holy Spirit wants you to meet with. Who is it that you are to get to know better in our congregation? Remember, find time preferably face to face (but it can also be over the phone) to just talk about your story. You don’t have to tell everything! But tell things that you feel safe telling.

This past Sunday I preached on God’s loving and unconditional covenant with us. God desires us to live in a loving covenantal community with each other within the church and with those who are our neighbors. And as we covenant together we should be able to say that love is the primary characteristic of our relationship together. As visitors come into Calvary the overriding feeling that they should feel is loved.  Continue reading “Wednesday Word 10/5/2011” »

Can I just say that I have MISSED all of you!! Being away two Sunday’s feels like forever to me!! I pray you all know that you have stayed in my heart and in my prayers! I also thank you for yours as I got a much needed retreat to the mountains with my son. God certainly met us there in the beauty of the mountains, in the raindrops that helped us to sleep, and in the church community that embraced us. Continue reading “Wednesday Word 9/28/2011” »

“Getting to Know You”

“Who is that good-looking young man who sits about half way back?”

“Who is that older woman who is so friendly to us?”
I have always thought that one of the great advantages of a small church is that everybody could know everybody else. Continue reading “Wednesday Word 9/21/2011” »

My challenge for this week is for us not to think not about the “what if” questions of our lives that we regret –but I would like for us to ask the “What if” questions that matter the most:
What if

  • what if I lived each moment fully?
  • what if I let each person I talk with know how valued they are? How beloved they are?
