Sunday, January 2, 2022 - The Second Sunday after Christmas - Most people breathe a sigh of relief once Christmas is over: no more present wrapping, no more cooking huge meals, no more running around. But what if after Christmas is when the work actually begins? What if the Word can become flesh in us? Maybe that happens every time we offer compassion or mercy, in every moment when we do " the work of Christmas."  Enjoy these selections from this morning's worship service!For more information, visit our website at www.MLUMC.org .Music permission obtained from ONELICENSE: A-700887.

The world sometimes makes us anxious, but the message of Advent is that Christ is coming. He comes to offer us perfect peace and counsels us not to worry. Instead of feeling the stress of work and productivity in the coming week, shift your focus to God’s kingdom and God’s righteousness, and the Sunday scaries will fade away.Scripture reading: Psalm 25:1-10, emphasis on  verse 1: "In you, Lord my God, I put my trust."Pastor Thomas Strandburg, preacher.Music permission obtained from ONELICENSE: A-700887.

Human anatomy makes it clear that we were not made to sit. We were made for movement, for work, and for play. We will hope to encourage the church to "get up and get moving" as active followers of Christ. The Great Commission compels us!Scripture reading: Matthew 28:1-10Pastor Thomas Strandburg, preacher.Music permission obtained from ONELICENSE: A-700887. All rights reserved.   Support the show

Persecution of Christians is not just an ancient pastime of bloodthirsty Romans.  Persecution of our fellow Christians is alive and well in the 21st century.  But this is something we in the West are almost entirely unfamiliar with.  This persecution of our Christian family in far away lands sometimes seems hopeless - after all, what can we do?  We'll discuss this on the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church.Scripture reading: Matthew 16:20-27Pastor Scott Miller, preacher.Music permission obtained from ONELICENSE: A-700887.

In the midst of a heavy theological debate with the Pharisees, Jesus gets to the heart of the matter - the greatest commandment is to love God and your neighbor. Join us as we explore the notion of love as the prime motivator in our lives.Scripture reading: Mark 12:28-34Pastor Thomas Strandburg, preacher.Music permission obtained from ONELICENSE: A-700887.

When Bartimaeus asked to be cured of his blindness, Jesus obliged.  But what if it was more than physical blindness that needed curing?  Jesus offers a clear vision of what true life looks like. To the extent we don’t share the vision Jesus describes, we’re blind.  Sin and guilt blind us to what our life could be. At other times, we live in the darkness of fear, or anger, or resentment. Doubt and despair can distort and impair our vision, leaving us blind. We'll discuss that in today's sermon.Scripture reading: Mark 10:46-52Pastor Scott Miller, preacher.Music permission obtained from ONELICENSE: A-700887. All rights reserved.Support the show

Discipleship is servant leadership, which finds greatness in service to others. Jesus — an expert in the field — invites us into a workshop on servant leadership, not through a high-tech video stream, but through words and actions. If you’re curious about discipleship, this is the master class you’ve been looking for.Scripture reading: Mark 10:35-45Pastor Thomas Strandburg, preacher.Music permission obtained from ONELICENSE: A-700887.
