MIDWEEK OF LENT 2

God’s character, His nature, is self-giving love. Everything Jesus does, He does “for us.” This phrase will be introduced this week in the series hymn. Pro nobis, or “for us,” appears again and again in the series hymn. Jesus is baptized, fasts, is tempted, overcomes temptation, and, in doing so, begins His work of undoing the power of the devil (Mark 1:9–13). It is especially worth noting that because Jesus suffered when tempted, He can “help those who are being tempted” (Hebrews 2:18). He not only helps us in our weakness, but His love for us extends all the way into the grave.

MIDWEEK OF LENT 3

Jesus talks all about seeking us in our texts this week. He does not wait passively until we get up the gumption to ask Him for help. Nor does He act out of selfish gain, like our health-care system seems to do so often today. Praying, teaching, working. In all these things, Jesus seeks us out and looks for ways to help us. This work is often overlooked because it is so ordinary. Water, bread and wine, the folly of preaching. In all these ordinary works, Jesus continues His ministry among us. This ministry of forgiveness means that Jesus continues to strengthen and help us.

MIDWEEK OF LENT 4

We talked about angels during Midweek of Lent 1. Tonight, we will talk about the darker side of the story—that is, demons. Demons are fallen angels who rebelled against God and His giving of Himself to us. Demons, with Satan chief among them, seek to undermine everything God is and does, even today. In our sermon tonight, we will hear how Jesus heals a man with a demon (Mark 5:1–13) and how that work of healing continues today.

MIDWEEK OF LENT 5

Jesus foretells His own betrayal, death, and resurrection in today’s text (Mark 8:31–9:1). This shows us that the way of salvation only comes through the path of suffering (Hebrews 2:10). Jesus’ suffering, His Passion, does not simply mean that He sympathizes with us. Rather, it means that He participates in our suffering, and we in His. His betrayal, the crown of thorns, the shameful cross—all of these lead to how Jesus “gave His dying breath,” as we sing in the series hymn. In the Passion reading, we will also hear how He dies (Mark 15:33–47) and what that means for us today.

Dove Award Winning Singer-Songwriter, Mitch McVicker, in Concert

McVicker’s vocational musical journey began by working with the late, great Rich Mullins. They performed concerts and wrote songs together. The two were roommates.

Shortly after a car wreck killed Mullins and badly injured McVicker, a song the two penned together, “My Deliverer,” was given the GMA Dove Award for song of the year...all while Mitch was going through a lengthy and difficult process of recovering from a comacausing brain injury, collapsed lungs, broken bones, and nerve damage.

After his recovery, Mitch continued his musical career, influenced by Rich Mullins in music and thought yet with his own distinct voice and style.

McVicker’s solo career has spanned nearly 2800 concerts in 49 states and 13 countries. Along with recording 13 full-length albums, he has made 2 EPs, released 9 official music videos and 2 live concert DVDs. McVicker seems determined to make sure his musical journey continues to grow. In creating Where the Earth Makes No Sound, he returned to a recording situation he had previously thrived in and loves.

“A number of years ago, I recorded several albums at Greenjeans Studios,” says McVicker. “Over the last few years, I decided to look into other recording situations and see what else was out there. And, while I learned and grew a lot from those experiences, I discovered that there is no better place for me to record than Greenjeans.”

So McVicker went back. He says, “I wanted to apply my growth to the rock-solidness and high- levelness of Greenjeans. I’m doing something completely new AND something I’ve

done before.”

We begin Holy Week with a celebration to welcome our King Jesus. You’re invited to be part of this unique service where we give honor to God.

Maundy Thursday - “Guided to Service: Romans 7:6”

In this service for Maundy Thursday, Jesus washes the disciples’ feet in service to them on his way to Calvary. In word and song, we contemplate how to live lives of service to others, guided by Christ and the cross.

Join us for a very moving service that will focus on the benefit of what Christ did for us on the Cross. He “poured out” his love for us on the cross and we receive that real promise today.
