2023 Sermons
Whether you have been gone five days or five minutes, the tail is wagging as he eagerly greets you. When you've had a really rotten day, she is ready to love and comfort you. And, no matter how badly you behave, you are forgiven. Love, joy, loyalty, obedience - dogs have a lot to teach us about God and one another.

2021 Sermons
December 26, 2021
You know the story of the Three Wise Men of the East, and how they travelled from far away to offer their gifts at the manger-cradle in Bethlehem. But have you ever heard the story of the Other Wise Man, who also saw the star in its rising, and set out to follow it, yet did not arrive with his brethren in the presence of the young child Jesus? Of the great desire of this fourth pilgrim, and how it was denied, yet accomplished in the denial; of his many wanderings and the probations of his soul; of the long way of his seeking, and the strange way of his finding, the One whom he sought. Pastor Dawn speaks on how we all can be the “Other Wise Man/Woman”.
