Worship Notes for 6/27/2010 (PDF) Greetings Redeemer family, When was the last time you took a look at the front of our bulletin? Do you know what’s written there?

Worship Notes for 6/20/10 (PDF) Greetings Redeemer family, This week we continue in our series on the Fruit of the Spirit, this time looking at the fruit of Peace. Peace is an odd thing in our world today. As a country, we’re 7 years into a “War on Terror,” yet it was quiet in my [...]

Worship Notes for 5/23/2010 (PDF) Greetings Redeemer family! Let’s start with a pop quiz. Grab a piece of paper, write your name at the top. Now, answer one question: “What is the Gospel?” This is the way my Evangelism professor would begin his class each semester. I became very familiar with this ritual, as one [...]

Worship Notes (PDF) Dear Redeemer family, I’m sad that I won’t be with you this Sunday. This weekend I’ll be out of town visiting with some friends from seminary – and I’m excited to catch up with them and hear how God has been at work in their lives and ministries. But I am disappointed [...]

Worship Notes for 5/9/2010 (PDF) Greetings Redeemer family, This week, we return to John’s description of the Last Supper celebrated by Jesus and His disciples. After Judas had left, Jesus turned to the remaining disciples and made this proclimation: “Now is the Son of Man glorified and God is glorified in him.” Isn’t that an [...]

Greetings Redeemer family, Blessed is he whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man whose sin the LORD does not count against him and in whose spirit is no deceit. Many are the woes of the wicked, but the LORD’s unfailing love surrounds the man who trusts in him. Rejoice in [...]

Greetings Redeemer family, This past Thursday we celebrated Earth Day. I commemorated the day by watching a little of the BBC mini-series Planet Earth. It’s an amazing nature documentary, with breathtaking scenes of exotic animals in the remotest parts of the world. Every time I’ve watched these episodes, I’m can’t help but ask, “How did [...]

Greetings Redeemer family! Earlier today, I was going through some old CDs that have sat in a box since my move from Florida. After the advent of MP3s, I rarely pull out these recordings anymore. Among the disks was an old favorite from high school – 10 Cent Wings by Jonatha Brooke. Jonatha’s folk songs feature [...]

Apologies for the delayed update to the web and twitter!! —- Greetings Redeemer family! What a wonderful time of the year to be in Central VA. Who would have thought – after all the cold and snow this Winter – we’d skip right through Spring and land in the middle of Summer weather? Now all [...]

Greetings Redeemer family, I’m writing the e-mail on Good Friday, the most sober of Christian holidays. It is a time to stop and reflect on the death of Christ; to remember His sufferings, His betrayal, His silence before the mockers, and His death. In all of this, Christ proves Himself to truly be Emmanuel – [...]

Greetings Redeemer family, This week is Palm Sunday, the traditional celebration of Christ’s entry into Jerusalem on the week before His crucifixion. It’s a holiday of strange contrasts. The week begins with the people of Jerusalem waving branches and cheering for their Messiah. Yet five short days later, these same people screamed for His death. [...]

Greetings Redeemer Family! I was talking with some friends last night about speed traps. We joked how it often seems that traffic cops get a kick out of finding the most obscure places to hide their car, a place that’s on the blind side of a hill, around a bend. They’ll turn off all lights [...]
Worship Notes for March 14, 2010 – Reset your clocks Saturday!
Posted in Worship Notes on Mar 12th, 2010 Comments Off
Greetings Redeemer family, First things first, I have a very important announcement: this Sunday is “spring forward” for Daylight Savings Time. That means you need to set your clock ahead an hour on Saturday night, otherwise you’ll show up an hour late to the service! It also means we’ll all probably be a little groggy [...]

Greetings Redeemer family, Before jumping into an introduction to this week’s service, I want to give you all a quick update on my vocal condition. As most of you know, I’ve been suffering from voice problems for the past couple of months, and have sought the counsel of various doctors and therapists. With their help, [...]

Greetings Redeemer Family, We begin our service this week by reading together the 23rd Psalm. This passage of scripture is very familiar to many of us – having heard it at weddings, funerals, Sunday School classes and written on any number of coffee mugs. With familiar passages like this, it is easy to zone out [...]
