honor to serve you this morning. You are among friends: relax and enjoy

our beautiful western setting. We trust that the music, the message, and

old-fashioned cowboy hospitality will encourage you today.

We are called to faith, gathered in love

ecclesia, ecclesia, Church at the Chip!

   Called to Faith, Gathered in Love

   Sent with Hope – ecclesia!

Psalm 17: 1-7, 15

1    Hear a just cause, O Lord; attend to my cry!
                Give ear to my prayer from lips free of deceit!
2    From your presence let my vindication come!
                Let your eyes behold the right!

3    You have tried my heart, you have visited me by night,
                you have tested me, and you will find nothing;
                I have purposed that my mouth will not transgress.
4    With regard to the works of man, by the word of your lips
                I have avoided the ways of the violent.
5    My steps have held fast to your paths;
                my feet have not slipped.

6    I call upon you, for you will answer me, O God;
                incline your ear to me; hear my words.
7    Wondrously show your steadfast love,
                O Savior of those who seek refuge
                from their adversaries at your right hand.

15   As for me, I shall behold your face in righteousness;
                when I awake, I shall be satisfied with your likeness.

Resurrection Reflections 

The Kingdom of Jesus: A Study in Luke’s Gospel (#75)

Luke 20:27-40   

Pastor Steve Gilbertson

What will life be like when Jesus returns and we receive our resurrection bodies? In one sense, it is clearly beyond imagination. But Jesus offers some tantalizing clues when he responds to the last question he faced from his religious opponents.
