Psalms 22:1-8 (NIV)
My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
Why are you so far from saving me,
so far from my cries of anguish?
My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer,
by night, but I find no rest.
Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One;
you are the one Israel praises.
In you our ancestors put their trust;
they trusted and you delivered them.
To you they cried out and were...
This week, Will Dyer offers an epilogue to our Beatitudes study looking at the Sermon on the Mount as a whole. Being people of the Beatitudes is about more than listening to Jesus's words but about putting them into action.

Isaiah 53:3-6 (NLT)
He was despised and rejected—
a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief.
We turned our backs on him and looked the other way.
He was despised, and we did not care.
Yet it was our weaknesses he carried;
it was our sorrows that weighed him down.
And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God,
a punishment for his own sins!
But he was pierced for our rebe...
Today, Dave Blow wraps up our teachings on the beatitudes after an interview with Rachel and Michelle, our KidsPoints Coordinators. Jesus tells us that we are blessed when we are persecuted for his sake, not because we are difficult or annoying, but because the world will ultimately reject his way.

Psalms 24 (NIV)
The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it,
the world, and all who live in it;
for he founded it on the seas
and established it on the waters.
Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord?
Who may stand in his holy place?
The one who has clean hands and a pure heart,
who does not trust in an idol
or swear by a false god.
They will receive blessing from the Lord

This morning, Dave Blow offers a reflection on what it means to be a part of the body of Christ, building on the reflection about unity that was offered last month on the Community Sunday. To be party of the body of Christ is not a matter of attendance or belief, but an existential state of being.

Malachi 3:1-5 (NIV)
“I will send my messenger, who will prepare the way before me. Then suddenly the Lord you are seeking will come to his temple; the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire, will come,” says the Lord Almighty.
But who can endure the day of his coming? Who can stand when he appears? For he will be like a refiner’s fire or a launderer’s soap. He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; he will purify the Levit...
This week, we welcome a special guest speaker from Mennonite Central Committee (MCC), Stephen Roy. Stephen shared a teaching with us about how making peace shows that we are children of God as God is a God of peace and not a God of violence.

Hebrews 13:1-6 (NLT)
Keep on loving each other as brothers and sisters. Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it! Remember those in prison, as if you were there yourself. Remember also those being mistreated, as if you felt their pain in your own bodies.
Give honor to marriage, and remain faithful to one another in marriage. God will surely judge people wh...
Today, Dave Blow shares on the sixth Beatitude: "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God." What does it meant to have a "pure" heart, exactly? Does our ordinary understanding of that term line up with Jesus's overall emphasis here in the Sermon on the Mount?

Philippians 2:1-5 (NIV)
Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own intere...
This morning, Dave Blow continues in our study of the Sermon on the Mount with a message on mercy. We often like the idea of mercy until things get too real. What would it mean to not only be a merciful person, but a merciful community?

John 8:31-36 (NLT)
Jesus said to the people who believed in him, “You are truly my disciples if you remain faithful to my teachings. And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
“But we are descendants of Abraham,” they said. “We have never been slaves to anyone. What do you mean, ‘You will be set free’?”
Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, everyone who sins is a slave of sin. A slave is not a permanent member of t...
This week, we pause our study of the Sermon on the Mount for our Community Sunday gathering. Each first Sunday of the month we gather for worship, communion, a time of fellowship over refreshments, and a short reflection. Today, Dave offers a reflection about the value of participating in a church community and we hear from Cheryl Stam about her experience joining the Welcome team.
Psalms 41:1-3 (NIV)
Blessed are those who have regard for the weak;
the Lord delivers them in times of trouble.
The Lord protects and preserves them—
they are counted among the blessed in the land—
he does not give them over to the desire of their foes.
The Lord sustains them on their sickbed
and restores them from their bed of illness.

Hebrews 4:14-16 (NLT)
So then, since we have a great High Priest who has entered heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to what we believe. This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same testings we do, yet he did not sin. So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most.
This morning, Dave Blow shared a teaching on the next two Beatitudes: "Blessed are those who mourn..." and "Blessed are the meek...". Jesus is telling us that those who mourn deeply understand the cost of violence and those who grieve the world's pain are less eager to add to it.

John 1:1-5, 14, 16-18 (NIV)
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, t...
