2020 Theme:  Sermon on the Mount
This series for Lent takes us through some of the most familiar teachings of Jesus from
his Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5-7 and relates them to the events surrounding Christ’s life,
death and resurrection. In the process, the services will powerfully reveal that the cross itself is
the ultimate sermon on the mount for our journey of faith in this sacred season.

Ash Wed.:  Blessed Are You
In this service we remember that we who are poor in spirit, who mourn, and who hunger and thirst for righteousness are called blessed by our Savior. Ash Wednesday reminds us that though we have been brought
low by sin, our Lord will bless us with new life in him through the cross.


Salt and Light
In this service we remember that Christ calls us to be salt and light in this world of sin. We who have tasted and seen
his great love for us on the cross can spend our Lent savoring his salvation and shining with his glory and grace in the places where he has put us.


Prayer and Fasting
In this service we remember that Lent is a season of prayer and fasting. We grow in our relationship with Christ by
communicating with him, and we learn more about him and ourselves by giving up those things that can distract us from our connection to him.


Do Not Worry
In this service we recognize that so much of our lives, even in Lent, is spent worrying about what might happen or
what has happened. Christ teaches us to stop being anxious, but simply to trust that he knows what is best and will take care of us to the very end.


Judge Not
In this service we recognize that we live in a very judgmental world, so Jesus’ advice not to judge sounds radical to
our modern ears. When we leave all judgment up to God, we free ourselves to look at one another through fresh and forgiving eyes.


Build On Rock
In this service we recognize that we build our lives on very shaky foundations, and then we are surprised when things start collapsing. Jesus reminds us in his teachings that the only solid foundation is himself, the Rock of our salvation. On him alone we build.
