    The True Meaning of Ash Wednesday

    Speaker: The Rev. Mark Galloway

    Topic: Amazing Grace , Ash Wednesday , Joy , Lent , Truth

    Book: 2 Corinthians

    Jesus said, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free” (John 8:31). This is what Ash Wednesday is all about: telling the Truth to the LORD – having the courage to tell the LORD what he knows we really are. In doing so, we put down our masks, and come to the realization that Christ really and truly loves us.

    Embrace the Incarnate Life (2022 Annual Report)

    Speaker: The Rev. Nathan Stomberg

    Topic: Annual Reports , Epiphany , Incarnation , Pope Benedict , Transfiguration

    Book: Exodus

    Beloved, the Church is the only place where people can find true healing and refuge from the failings of a fallen world. We have an obligation to stand as outposts of truth and sanity amid a culture that is losing its collective grip on reality. This requires the Church to no longer abandon her simple duty to point out what is right and wrong, even when it is “controversial.” Our call to embrace the incarnate life, then, is to accept our duty as the Church – to be the hands and feet of Christ in our communities.

    Religion and Morality are Indispensable

    Speaker: The Rev. Mark Galloway

    Topic: Annual Reports , Declaration of Independence , Epiphany , George Washington , Lively Faith

    Book: 1 Corinthians

    We have become a country untethered from the immutable Truth that a loving Father created us to know, love, and serve Him in this life, which alone is the assured path to our happiness in eternal life. We indeed have perpetual amnesia about this fact (including a majority of those in “the land of the free and the home of the brave” who claim to be Christians).

    How to Respond to Suffering

    Speaker: The Rev. Nathan Stomberg

    Topic: Epiphany , Horatio Spafford , Joy , Peace , Suffering

    Book: 1 Corinthians

    When we focus on Christ instead of complaining about the many hardships in our lives, we become a witness to the Gospel. Our lives become saturated with the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding. This doesn’t make any sense if you don’t know Christ! This is how Spafford could write a hymn praising the Lord mere days after all his children died in a shipwreck.

    How to Trust and Obey God

    Speaker: The Rev. Mark Galloway

    Topic: Epiphany , Humility , Obedience , Pride , Trust

    Book: 1 Corinthians

    Obedience to God is the only way to true happiness. But in order to trust and obey God, we must first abandon our pride and admit that we are no longer going to do things “our way.” Only when we begin boast in the Lord and not in ourselves will we know the joy of salvation and help others to find their way to God.

    Don’t Kick the Can Down the Road

    Speaker: The Rev. Nathan Stomberg

    Topic: Debt , Epiphany , Procrastination , Responsibility , Salvation

    Book: 1 Corinthians

    What can the US debt ceiling teach us about the Christian life? It demonstrates the attitude of our wider culture, even among Christians. We have no desire to do the hard work of self-examination and repentance. We don’t want to embrace the struggle of a life of holiness, following Christ. We just want more stuff! We want to be comfortable, and we don’t want to be reminded that we must be holy, just as God is holy.

    I Did Not Restrain My Lips

    Speaker: The Rev. Mark Galloway

    Topic: Courage , Epiphany , Evangelism , Saint Francis

    Book: 1 Corinthians

    Secular culture espouses many useless sayings which may make us feel good but are devoid of meaning because they deny the power and reality of the Triune God. The expectation of Christians is not to merely be nice or say nice things – it is to be kind, persist in prayer, and to boldly speak about our faith. What good is our faith if we don’t tell anyone about it?

    Series: Lessons 2022-2023

    How to Follow the Light

    Speaker: The Rev. Mark Galloway , The Rev. Nathan Stomberg

    Topic: Epiphany , Lessons , Light , Truth , Wise Men

    The Rev. Stomberg and the Rev. Galloway discuss the meaning and historical context of the Epiphany narrative; what it means to “follow the light”; what the Light actually is; where we can find the Light; what distance we must travel to find it; and what gifts we are asked to offer the King when we find Him.

    Arise and Shine

    Speaker: The Rev. Nathan Stomberg

    Topic: Christmas , Epiphany , Incarnation , Pope Benedict , Virgin Mary

    Book: Ephesians

    The Epiphany has not ended; it shines forth to this day, radiating out from the day of Christ’s Incarnation; it is the very reason we as Gentiles can share in the riches of Christ’s inheritance. This means that we who have received this light have the responsibility to both continually seek its source and reflect it so that others may do the same.
