This Weekend in Worship Preaching: Pastor Craig Brown Sermon: "Is Christ Your King or Not?" On this final Sunday of the church year our gospel is Jesus' great story of judgment. In the end, the faithful are those who served Christ by ministering to those who are poor, hungry, naked, sick, or estranged. In the first reading God is the shepherd who seeks the lost, weak, and injured and feeds them with justice. We gather this day to celebrate the reign of Christ and his victory over death, yet awaiting the consummation of all things yet to come. Acknowledging Christ as our merciful ruler, we go forth that his reign may be known in our loving words and deeds. Scripture: Ephesians 1:15-23; Matthew 25:31-46 NRSV Special Music: 9a- Adult Choir 10:15 a.m. Sunday Morning Learning There are no classes for children, teens or adults this weekend.
