10:45 Traditional - Imagine Hope

The prophet Isaiah is trying to tell us that God has set a beautiful vision before us from the reading from Isaiah 2. “They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation,  nor will they train for war anymore.” The world in which Isaiah lived was a chaotic and unjust world. Israel was a storm-tossed nation, threatened by the powerful Assyrians to the north and east and intimidated by the Egyptians to the south and west. As we look at our situation and our circumstance, we also see and realize there are small and big pains and challenges that face us each day. Can you really believe the words of Isaiah proclaimed, when his people were in most desperate situation? We can confidently say that this same God is with us, as we are going through our best and worst times of our lives today too.

Our 10:45am worship service is a more traditional service.  We sing all the great old hymns (with our wonderful organ) and follow the familiar liturgy.  We worship in the small chapel at our church complex, but we also offer a recording of the previous week’s service in a special YouTube format (which you can access by going to our Sunday Worship Page)
