The Woodlands Methodist Church: Traditional Audio

Traditional Worship | Bishop Bob HayesThis summer, refresh your soul with the Psalms — an ancient songbook that captures the full range of human emotions. When you combine the timeless messages of life with the beauty of the songs, you end up with a seven-week sermon series, Summertime Psongs. It is a modern-day approach to rediscovering the beauty of how these songwriters penned expressions of wisdom, lament, hope, prayer, gratitude, anger, praise and enthronement. We are glad you have chosen to join us in the harmony of our worship as we rediscover the beauty of these songs and prayers.

Traditional Worship | Bishop Bob Hayes | Have you ever asked yourself, “Why does the church exist?” Other than the obvious answer of transforming lives and spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ, what is a vibrant church called to be or do? Our mission statement of “Reaching People for Jesus Christ, Discipling Them in Faith, and Helping Those in Need” gives us a great start, but is there something more beyond our horizon that God is calling us to see or be engaged in? These are the questions we want to answer in this current capital campaign sermon series, Beyond. This is our moment to boldly pursue God's greater purpose for us, and in doing so, we might also discover how God is leading us to step out in faith. Welcome to Traditional worship. We're glad you're here.

Traditional Worship | Rev. Mark Sorensen | For nearly 50 years, God's faithfulness has been the foundation of our church. Now, we believe He is calling us to something greater — to go further in faith, generosity and love. He is calling us to go beyond. Over the next four weeks, as we embark on the Beyond capital campaign, we invite you to prayerfully seek God's guidance and consider how He may be leading you to step out in faith. This is our moment to boldly pursue His greater purpose — together, let's go beyond.

Traditional Easter Worship | Bishop Bob Hayes | Welcome to Easter Sunday — the most important day of our Christian faith. We are delighted that you have joined us to celebrate our Lord's victory over sin and death. May you feel God's presence as you encounter the risen Savior through the music, prayers, Scriptures and spoken word. Everything we do is rooted in the Good News of Jesus Christ. Again, thank you for being with us — you are welcome here!

Traditional Worship | Rev. Dr. Jeff Olive | Throughout Jesus' ministry, prayer was the foundation on which He built His relationship with God. Before every miracle — from giving sight to the blind to feeding of the multitude, from raising Lazarus from the dead to facing that darkest moment in Gethsemane — He always prayed. Prayer was essential for Jesus, and when He gave His Sermon on the Mount, considered to be the greatest of all His teachings, He instructed us on how to pray by giving us the model prayer that has stood the test of time. In this sermon series, we will examine the power and depth of what has come to be known as the Lord's Prayer. As modern-day disciples, we can learn so much from these timeless words. We are delighted you have joined us for our traditional worship, and we welcome you as we explore what it means when we ask, “Teach us to pray.”

Traditional Worship | Bishop Bob Hayes |The foundation of the entire Biblical narrative can be found in the five covenants that have been made between God and humanity. They represent the sacred and binding promises of God, and they are often called the ‘backbone' of the Bible. Each covenant builds upon another, forming a complete redemptive storyline. God preserved the world through Noah, initiated redemption through Abraham, established the nation of Israel through Moses, promised an eternal shepherd-king through David, and then fulfilled all His covenants through Jesus. Covenants are essentially promises that have been given to us so that God can enter into a personal relationship with us, and as we will discover in this sermon series, God has always kept His promises.

Traditional Worship | Bishop Bob Hayes |  Giving is an expression of our faith and a way to reflect God's boundless STEWARDSHIP. In the month of January, we will embrace the theme of making room — creating space in our lives for God's work to flourish. By giving, we open doors for new ministries to grow, the gospel to reach more people, and lives to be transformed. It's not just about finances; it's about making room for hope, grace and love to take root in the world around us. Together, we have the opportunity to be part of something greater, making room for God to move powerfully in and through us.

Traditional Christmas Service | Bishop Bob Hayes |  Never was there a night such as this. God is the only one who could have conceived of a night where angels, stars, shepherds and wise men would all converge at a tiny stable behind an inn near Bethlehem. From the very beginning of creation itself, God already knew how this timeless drama would unfold, and from that very first Christmas until now, the story of the birth of Jesus Christ has captivated the hearts of believers throughout history. Each year it pulls us back into its awe and wonder. It is a story that will never grow old, and one that we will never outgrow. We welcome you tonight to our Christmas Eve service, a night when we proclaim that the light of Christ shines in the midst of our darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

Traditional Worship | Bishop Bob Hayes |The signs of Christmas are everywhere! Trees are trimmed, Christmas lights are shining, nativity scenes are on display, and Christmas carols fill the air. Each year, as we sing the carols of Christmas, we are retelling the story of Jesus' birth. These songs remind us of the hope, peace, joy and love that come with the arrival of the Messiah, and it is through these songs that we rediscover the wonder of Christmas. This year, as we sing, may we be reminded to “Repeat the sounding joy!” not just for the Christmas season, but always.

Traditional Worship | Dr. Ed Robb | When we use the phrase “heart of a lion,” it is nothing more than a figurative expression usually associated with bravery and courage. Quite often it is used to commend someone for their boldness or to inspire others to act with similar courage. The Bible is filled with stories of men and women who possessed the ability to tackle formidable forces and obstacles in order to achieve God's will. Their stories are both remarkable and unforgettable. Hopefully, this sermon series will inspire us to act with determination and fearlessness when we come up against our own challenges and trials. We welcome you to Traditional Worship, and we are glad you have joined us.

Missions Sunday | Rev. Karen Tyler |  Jesus is the river of life, flowing from the heart of God into the brokenness of the world. Like the waters seen by Ezekiel, this river brings healing, restoration and abundance wherever it flows. As followers of Christ, we are called to be channels of this life-giving water, offering hope, love and healing to those in need. Yet, many have yet to encounter the life Jesus offers. Today, we are reminded of our mission to share this river of life and well of grace until the whole world knows. Join us as we welcome Rev. Karen Tyler, Pastor of Worship and Evangelism, who will inspire us to embrace this calling and spread God's love to every corner of the earth.

Traditional Worship | Dr. Edmund W. Robb III  | What if I told you that every Christian has the power and the capacity to think, act and maintain the same focus and values that Jesus had — would you believe me? Well, the truth is, we do! This is the message that the Apostle Paul proclaimed when he boldly declared that once we accept the free gift of salvation given to us through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, we are given the “mind of Christ.” Even though we will never know all that our Savior knew, it is up to us to discover what it means to think like Jesus and have the same attitude and mindset our Lord possessed. In this five- week sermon series, we will explore how every Christian believer can model the life of the greatest mind that ever lived. Welcome to our Traditional worship service!

Traditional Worship | Dr. Edmund W. Robb III | Not surprisingly, the Bible has a lot to say about wisdom. But what is it and how do we obtain it? Attempting to define wisdom in one particular way would be impossible, and going in search of it will lead you in many different directions. In the Scriptures, wisdom isn't just about intelligence or knowledge, and the one true path the writers of both the Old and New Testaments agree on is this: Wisdom begins with God and ends with God. In fact, it is a gift of God. When we have a profound respect and reverence for our Creator, we understand that this is the foundation from which true wisdom springs. In this sermon series we will explore four key tenets of Godly wisdom: Priorities, Love, Humility and Learning. We are delighted you are here to share in this most revealing series on what the Bible has to say to us about Words of Wisdom, God's unique gift to us.

Traditional Worship | Bishop Bob Hayes | Water was essential throughout the parched and dusty plains of the Middle East, where the writings of the Old and New Testaments were born. The Red Sea and the Sea of Galilee were the two most important sources of water in the region, and they provided the setting for so many wonderful stories throughout the Bible. In Exodus, Moses “parted the Red Sea,” freeing his people and leaving behind their bondage in Egypt.   It was at the Sea of Galilee where Jesus called His first disciples and where most of His ministry took place. As we come into the heart of this summer season, this sermon series invites us to go back and rediscover how God used these two great bodies of water to liberate a nation and provide a setting where Jesus performed miracles as He taught us all about the Kingdom of God.

As we come into the heart of this summer season, this sermon series invites us to go back and rediscover how God used these two great bodies of water to liberate a nation and provide a setting where Jesus performed miracles as He taught us all about the Kingdom of God.   Join us this Sunday at 8:30 or 11:00 a.m. as we welcome “Summer by the Sea.”
