St Andrew Cape

This week we continue in the book of Luke, looking at chapter 6 looking noting how the teachings of Jesus cause radical shifts to our worldview, perceptions, and behaviors.

This week we dive into Luke 5 as we compare Jesus to a modern day social media influencer... but, is He more?

This week's discussion takes us to Luke 4, as we note the genealogy of Jesus, as well as the significance and the "why" of His baptism.

We kick off this brand new year of our sermon series on Luke and Acts by diving into Luke 2 and asking questions like, "How do we respond to the Gospel?" and "How should we respond to the Gospel in light of submission."

Join us for our last episode of 2022, as we conclude our thoughts on Downtime, the significance of the incarnation of Jesus, and God's incredible love and forgiveness.

As we continue our series called Downtime, we talk this week about grief, and how the account of Jesus grieving the death of His cousin John the Baptist can remind us of the hope we have.

Tis the Season for some downtime... but, how in the world do we really find rest and respite in God's will and word, when our lives are so busy and chaotic? We start that conversation this week!

When it comes to God's word, there is SO much to meditate on and to be nourished by, so this week, we suggest some resources to help you do just that!

This week we continue our series called People of the Word looking at Psalm 119, and how God's word not only comforts us and gives us hope, but is truly life-giving.

Is it possible to love the law of God? Psalm 119 certainly stitches a picture of that, and this week, we take that concept on.

Does the weight of failure feel ever feel crushing? This week we look at the failure of disciples Peter and Judas, and what we can learn from both of their auto responses to that failure, and how scripture can help shape our auto response.

We continue our Auto Response series talking this week about anxiety, worry and fear, and how we can trust God is in control of all circumstances.

After looking at Ephesians 4 this past week, we talk about how being clothed in Christ can help us to better manage and shape our anger responses.

This week we kick off our new sermon series called "Auto Response", and discuss how God's word can help us navigate and adjust our automatic responses when we face conflict, anger, anxiety, fear, and failure.

Join us this week for a lively conversation about Jesus, and the constant that He is in the midst of chaos and change, as we wrap up our Journey of Faith series examining the book of Hebrews

What is the difference between viewing the journey of faith as a series of sprints, versus a marathon that requires endurance and perseverance? That's only part of our conversation this week!

This week we discuss the challenge to the church in the book of Hebrews to move beyond the more basic things or 'milk' of the faith to the 'meat' or more maturity in the faith.

This week we talk a bit about Melchizedek and the why the author of Hebrews mentioned him in conjunction with Jesus being a high priest.

This week, we talk super heroes... but from a different angle.

Our new series on called Journey of Faith (where we dig into the book of Hebrews) started off with some great conversation on the ever dialog-providing topic of how God spoke, speaks... or doesn't and the Holy Spirit's 'voice' and role.

This week we wrap up our series on the book of James and reflect on how God uses people to accomplish His purposes, and the value of being and participating in the Church.

How do we stay grounded and rooted in truth in a day and age where messaging everywhere is that it is only subjective? We continue our James series and talk about that a bit more.

Continuing our series on the book of James, this week's discussion tackles Jame's call to the church to "show no partiality as you hold the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory."

It seems that the church of today could gleam quite a bit from the book of James about the 'already, not yet' tension we live in as Christ followers seeking to be doers of the Word, and not just passive hearers. '

Join us this week as we begin digging into the book of James.

Since we just celebrated Father's Day, we talk this week about the important role and impact of Dads on the formation of faith in their kids.

This week we conclude our discussion on the sermon series "Tested" and talk about why our identity in Christ is such a crucial part of experiencing and enduring times of testing.

Continuing our series, Tested, this week we talk about some pretty amazing things that Jesus said to His disciples about suffering, sorrow, and joy, and... seeing Him again.

This week we discuss Deuteronomy 13, where God's people are told they will be tested, but cautioned not to be swayed when unexpected people and sources try to divert their hearts and worship away from Him.

Join us this week as we share about and unpack ways that God allows for or tests us in our lives of faith, and... why.

We're back this week as we start our new sermon series called Tested! What does scripture mean when it tells us to rejoice in suffering or that trials produce steadfastness?

This week we talk the church's role in community... and how there is still much to learn from the early church that we can apply today.

How God works through His people is a theme in scripture. How we can apply that and know God's abundance to us and through us is what we tackle this week.

Continuing our Spiritually Vibrant Home series, this week we look at how messy prayers (being intentional with our time in scripture and prayer) and loud tables (conversations often within your household) can lead to open doors (lives extending towards and loving those outside of the kingdom of God).

Join us this week as we discuss important role of meaningful conversations on keeping Jesus at the center of our relationships, households, meals... everything.

As the terrain of life and culture continues to shift away from the influence and acceptance of Christianity, how do we continue to stay rooted in Christ and committed to navigating the mess of it all?

Thermostats are clean, sanitary, and efficient, but fireplaces are messy, a lot or work, and yet a beautiful place to gather. This week we talk about how our messy prayers can be a part of a more engaged life of faith. Faith, vulnerable and honest prayers, working through tensions and brokenness can all be messy, but like the work involved to build, stoke, and maintain a fire in a fireplace, it is beautiful and worth it.

This week we launched our new sermon series, The Spiritually Vibrant Household, and on the podcast, we dive further into what our foundation is built upon. Whether our household is two parents with 2.5 kids, empty nesters, or singles, our cornerstone, what we are building on is crucial, and it does make an impact. Plus... this week instead of food, we talk SOCKS! Don't miss out!

As we wrap up our Everyday Disciple sermon series, we look at the words of Jesus in Luke 14 about the cost of discipleship. How can we more effectively 'be' the church, instead of it just being this nice, pleasant, social spot that we visit once or twice a week that meets all of our preferences.

Here at St. Andrew, we talk a lot about loving God and loving others. This week, we look at how our presence and interactions on social media impact and affect our vocation as everyday disciples. The world is watching... so, are we using that technology and those platforms to love others as ourselves, or just make disciples of ourselves?

This week we challenge a popular Christian phrase by looking at Matthew 5. We talk about being 'salt and light', everyday disciples, discuss some pitfalls of viewing our faith as a checklist, and how our best life is our life in Christ.

We've all heard and probably been influenced by different sayings about hard work. This week, we candidly talk about some of those hangups we may have about work and serving the Lord… are we seeking first the kingdom of God, or the kingdom of ourselves? Are we paying attention to where our focus is the way that we live and work and in the midst of our relationships?

This past Sunday we started our new sermon series Everyday Disciple. Join us this week as we look at some of the barriers we face in sharing faith with those unchurched whether they are family members, friends, coworkers, neighbors, and beyond. Maybe we are overcomplicating it...

This week we talk sin, our love or hatred of bologna sandwiches, and what it means to be hidden in Christ as described in Colossians 3.

We kick off this year looking at Psalm 19:9-11 as we discuss the tendency to mischaracterize and misconstrue our view of God's law so much that we miss its goodness and right purpose in our lives.

Join us this week in the book of Revelation as we discuss this sometimes challenging book, and root ourselves in its culmination - Jesus, the Lion and the Lamb.

This week we look at 2 Timothy and discuss the basis for spiritual correction and reproof, and why that is sometimes challenging for us to work though.

Join us in Hebrews 12 this week as we look at running the race surrounded by the cloud of witnesses who have come before us in the faith.

This week we look at Ephesians 4, and discuss how we are to operate, function, and thrive in unity as the body of Christ, and where we sometimes go wrong...

Tune in for a quick announcement from us about this week!
