It's Working Jan 01, 2019

Show notes

For over 250 years, Watch Night has been celebrated as a rich and diverse tradition of Christians anticipating the new year. But what is watch night? It's believed the first watch night services were held by Moravian Christians in Eastern Europe on December 31st 1733. Two decades later English Pastor John Wesley incorporated watch night services into the Methodist Church. Over the next 100 years, watch night services grew in popularity throughout the United States in both white and African-American congregations. On the eve of President Abraham Lincoln signing the Emancipation Proclamation, free and enslaved African-Americans held watch night services throughout the country on December 31st 1862. Today, Christians from around the world gather to watch for and welcome God's presence in the new year. As a diverse Community who follows Jesus, we at Vineyard Columbus also share in this rich tradition. This New Year's Eve, Pastor Charles Montgomery preached a message titled “It’s Working”... A message on identifying and recognizing your growth through God, whether you see it or not.

Show notes

Pastor Andy Saperstein preaches from Psalm 46 with his topic, “Be Still and Know that I Am God.” He shares his insights to living God-wardly… living toward God day by day, creating rhythms of rest and solitude in our daily lives, and cultivating attentiveness to those around us.

Jesus: The Revelation of God Dec 23, 2018

Show notes

Pastor Julia Pickerill continues with the “Four-Part Harmony” sermon series as she talks about Jesus: The Revelation of God. Jesus is our beginning. He is our light and life and our revelation. What does it mean for us to be in connection with Christ? What does it mean to “plug in” to God?

Jesus: The Minister of Welcome Dec 16, 2018

Show notes

As we get one step closer to celebrating Christmas, Pastor Rich Nathan continues with the “Four-Part Harmony” sermon series as he preaches from Luke and talking about the inclusivity of Luke’s gospel. Luke’s gospel shows us that Jesus is the Savior of the World. The sermon focuses in on four incidents in the book of Luke to see this picture – Jesus’ love for women, the poor and Gentiles.

Jesus: A Different Kind of Messiah Dec 09, 2018

Show notes

Pastor Rich Nathan teaches about Jesus: The Suffering Servant of God. He will focus on the kind of Messiah Jesus was. The Disciples didn’t understand him. They understood in part, but not in full – they understood he was Messiah, but not what kind of Messiah he was. Rich will be examining Christian leadership based on two stories of healing the blind in Mark 8 and 10.

Jesus: The Fulfiller of God's Promises Dec 02, 2018

Show notes

Pastor Rich Nathan starts our 2018 Advent series “Four-Part Harmony” by looking at the gospels. In this sermon, he uses text from Matthew 1-2. Matthew is the most Jewish of the gospels. Matthew insists that following Jesus is real Judaism. This is the fulfillment of the Old Testament. Rich also emphasizes the faithfulness of God as he always keeps his promises.

Engaging the Spirit Nov 25, 2018

Show notes

In this sermon, Pastor Eric Pickerill preaches on "Engaging the Spirit." In this text we see an invitation to do the work with the Holy Spirit. God uses regular people like Philip – the key aspect for Philip is to make himself available. What would it look like for our church to be available to the Holy Spirit? We want to be a boundary-crossing church.

Show notes
