45 MPH - 45 minutes of Music, Prayer, and Hope
Our prayer is that the worship experience will be more than just a one night stand. We hope it will invoke new insights, questions, thoughts, reflections, ideas, etc., and open your heart and mind to God throughout the week.
This page was designed to give you a flavor of our evening worship service. Initially, we thought we would be able to update it every week, but alas, we weren't able to do this on a regular basis. So, please consider these entries as samples of what happens on a Sunday night!
You are welcome to add your reflections and thoughts in a blog format.
And remember, you are always welcome to share your thoughts, struggles, experiences, reflections, etc., during the next worship experience.

| Greetings! Below is a sample of some of our Sunday night worship experiences. Although we had hoped to blog an entry each week, we found that we just weren't getting it done in a timely fashion, but still thought that it might be helpful to keep on the website for those who might want a taste of what goes on!
You can use this blog to share your reflections or questions, to share something that happened to you during the week, or just to check out what you missed. You can also use the blog to share your prayer requests. You are welcome to join us any Sunday evening! |

10/24/2008 - "Going Through the Motions" - Well, due to technical difficulties, we didn't have a chance to delve into the topic so we'll save it for another time. Instead, it seemed a good time to discuss the future of the Friday Fishwrap. For a variety of reasons, we will be switching to an early Sunday evening service March 22, 2009. We'll continue to meet for a little while in November, but feel that a different time and day may meet the needs of more people. Let us know if you might be one of them! More to come later....

10/17/2008 - "Manna" God heard their complaints and brought them out of Egypt - out of slavery and bondage. Then they rose their voices again, bemoaning that they were taken from the land of plenty into the empty wilderness. God heard their complaints and responded with the promise of manna and quail. Later they would complain of the monotony of manna and quail...

10/10/2008 "Sat-7" What in the world is Sat-7? It is a way in which the word of God is being introduced to many countries where censorship abounds and freedom of religion is restrictive. Unlike the USA, satellite reception is free in the Middle East and North Africa - all you need is a satellite dish and a TV and hundreds of channels are yours to view!

10/3/2008 - "Anger!!" What makes you angry? What does your anger lead you to do? Have you ever gotten so angry that you broke something? Scared yourself? Caused you to do something that you never believed you would do? What does God have to say about anger?

9/19/2008 - Is God for Real? Is God real or a figment of our imagination??? There literally are hundreds of arguments that speak for and against the existence of God. What do you think? If you were at the service or are reading this, you probably believe that God exists - which then begs the question, "But why??"

9/12/2008 - Reality 24/7 - Reality Shows...we all watch them (probably more than we'd like to admit. There are literally hundreds of shows on television each week. So what's the attraction? Why do we find them so fascinating? And are they really depicting reality? What about Christian Reality Shows?

9/5/08 - "Remember Me?" A time to reflect on the significance of communion which is more than just bread and wine (well, grape juice in our case!). We all need, like, and want to be remembered. Nothing is more tragic than a family member who can no longer remember his or her family members. Jesus shared the Passover meal with his disciples and asked them to "Remember me." So when we share communion, we gather to remember him...

8/29/08 - "More than Bread!" It was an evening of asking God to lead us in song, scriptures, and sharing - and responding. Life is more than living and working hard in order to feed ourselves bread (or meat, or beer, or vegetables, etc.)

8/22/08 "Living Up to Our Names" The story of Simon Peter is a perfect example of someone who received a name that was initially bigger than he was! When Jesus met Simon, he did an unusual thing of immediately giving Simon the "nickname" of Peter - A Rock. Now Simon, who was a big fisherman, probably felt the name was appropriate because of his size and strength, but he was also known as being impulsive and a bit of a hot-head - not quite the steady rock need for the foundation of God's church.
