35 And one of them, an expert in the law, asked a question to test him: 36 “Teacher, which command in the law is the greatest?” 37 He said to him, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. 38 This is the greatest and most important command. 39 The second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself. 40 All the Law and the Prophets depend on these two commands.” Matthew 22:35-40 (CSB)
Praying Together – securing our hearts to God
This week we continue learning about prayer. Pastor Peter asks the question, if prayer is personal do we need to pray in groups?

Truly I tell you, they have their reward. 6 But when you pray, go into your private room, shut your…
The Lord’s Supper
Remembering & Proclaiming Christ Pastor Peter started a new series this week about The Lord’s Supper. Since Jesus gave His body, shed His blood, and rose from the grave to save us from our sins, we should worship by remembering and proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ both in sharing communion and throughout our lives. 26 As they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take and eat it; this is my body.” 27 Then he took…
Secular Foundation: Inspecting the Structure – Finding God – week 3
Sex, Marriage and Gender This Sunday, Pastor Peter unpacks the question: How do we understand marriage, sex, sexual preference and gender identity inside a culture that bristles at our biblical understanding of those topics? 26 Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness. They will rule the fish of the sea, the birds of the sky, the livestock, the whole earth, and the creatures that crawl on the earth.”27 So God created man in his own image; he created…
