The Feast of Trumpets is Sunday-Monday

Celebrate the Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah)

As we learned a few weeks ago, the Feast of Trumpets is this Sunday and Monday. If you aren't sure about what/why this festival matters, you can review the sermon here.



Don't forget to make a plan to celebrate with others and to remember and recount together the story God has been writing for all history. Along with that, take time to remember your own story, to recount how God has been with you, and to consider what new things He is calling you to in the coming year.


Here are some other ideas for you to use in celebration of this appointed time of God.

  • Play Hebrew music throughout the day (Paul Wilbur, Laeli, Joshua Aaron)
  • Enjoy a favorite meal including apple dessert as is a modern Jewish tradition 
  • Make a list of as many ways as you can recall that God has provided for or blessed you this past year.
  • Pray together for the ways you look for God to reveal himself to you this coming “new” year
  • Spend time in individual personal reflection asking God what new things he has to show you.

It has also been a primary purpose for them, leaving the Christian faith in general. And here it is, The unhealthy, emotional, and spiritual immaturity of life-long church attenders and believers. These have been people whom they wanted to trust and look up to, but who have lived with an offense, trivial criticalness, judgmental attitudes, hypocrisy, inability to relate to current culture, church hurt, etc. These have been some of the most significant factors influencing young people to walk away from the chur...

Keep Silent

Let All the Earth Keep Silent Sunday's message focused on learning to be silent. Silence is perhaps one of the most counter-cultural disciplines we can enter into as Christians. We were challenged to spend 2 minutes of silence twice a day in order to begin shifting our busy and noisy lives. How has your silence been? Have you been able to make time to be silent? If so, what has it been like? We would love to hear. Click here to let us know. If you missed the service, you can watch it by clicking below.
