Rev. Mike Gatliff (John 1:19-28)

Russell Jung (Psalm 138)

Rev. Matt Miller (Acts 20:17-38) Paul's journeys certainly led to many “sea stories”, tales of challenge and adventure. After fourteen years of ministry at Woodland, I have a lot of “sea stories” too. Thanks for listening!

Russell Jung (Luke 15:11-32)

Rev. Matt Miller (1 Corinthians 16) In the last chapter of 1 Corinthians, Paul challenges them to be watchful, to be alert. In the chapter, he provides some final guidance for them to live re-calibrated lives.

Russell Jung (1 Corinthians 15:1-58) This scripture emphasizes the primary importance of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. In this message Russell focuses on the primary importance of the Resurrection, how God is reversing The Fall through the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, and the glorious mystery that is Resurrection applied to all believers. The implications for our lives include an emphasis on evangelism, hope in times of deep loss, and sanctification of our most entrenched sins.

Rev. Matt Miller (1 Corinthians 14) A lot of our time can be spent building things: reputations, retirement accounts, businesses, and even families. All these things have value and are worthy endeavors. But in this chapter, Paul invites us to consider how each person is to use their gift to build up the church.

Stephen Copeland (Mark 11:20-25) A faith that receives… trusts God, prays boldly and forgives others.

Rev. Matt Miller (1 Corinthians 13)

Rev. Matt Miller (1 Corinthians 12) What is the best gift you've ever been given? Understanding the answer to that question means having a sense of the giver and the purpose of the gift. Paul shares with the Corinthians the importance of having and using their gifts to build up the body of Christ.

Rev. Joshua Smith (2 Samuel 9:1-13)

Rev. Matt Miller (1 Corinthians 11:17-34) Paul challenges us to set aside our differences for a greater good which ends up blessing us as well.

Rev. Matt Miller (1 Corinthians 10) The end of the school year is full of exams. The journey of the Christian faith has many tests as well. Paul reminds the Corinthians not only that temptation is part of life but that God is with us as we face it.

Rev. Matt Miller (Matthew 28:1-10) Fear is a normal response to unexpected situations but many of us live with a constant sense of fear. What can we learn from the witnesses of the Resurrection about fear?

Rev. Matt Miller (1 Corinthians 9:1-27) We often think of freedom as the rights I can have. In this chapter, Paul, in the context of discussing how those who preach the gospel should earn their living from the gospel, talks about true freedom meaning how we are able to give up our rights.

Rev. Sirgregory Thornton (John 19:17-27)

Rev. Matt Miller (1 Corinthians 8:1-13)

Russell Jung (1 Corinthians 7:1-16)

Rev. Matt Miller (1 Corinthians 6:9-20) Paul invites the Corinthians to remember who they are instead of falling back into the way they were when it comes to their sexual identity.

Rev. Matt Miller (1 Corinthians 6:1-8) A concerning symptom reveals a deeper problem.

Rev. Matt Miller (1 Corinthians 5) Helping members of a family live into the values of the family is important. Sometimes, people wander and need to be restored. Paul challenges the Corinthians to live faithfully and offers guidance on how to do so.

A Service Presented by the Woodland Choirs

Rev. Matt Miller (Luke 2:8-14)

Rev. Matt Miller (Luke 2:21-35) We all suffer from accidie, a spiritual condition known from the medieval era, from time to time. What is the cure? Living with a sense of expectation of the coming of the Savior.

Rev. Matt Miller (Matthew 6:25-34) True wealth is found in the Kingdom of God, his eternal reign and rule in the world. Jesus invitation to seek the Kingdom reveals his love for us.

Luke 16:1-15 (Rev. Matt Miller) Jesus, the greatest economist and financial planner who existed, gives guidance on how we should best invest the resources that we have.

Rev. Matt Miller (Matthew 19: 16-24)                

Russell Jung (John 21:1-14) Some people doubt the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Some may call this story a fish tale. This sermon is written to help you see the risen Lord Jesus Christ and increase your confidence in the truth of the resurrection. As we look closely at the reactions of Mary Magdalene, The Disciples, Thomas, and Peter when they encounter the resurrected Lord Jesus we see genuine, heartfelt responses that are consistent with a face to face meeting between Jesus and his closest followers. Increase your faith and join in the excitement as Mary and The Disciples react to seeing Jesus and say, “I have seen the Lord!”.

Rev. Matt Miller (Jonah 4:5-11)

Rev. Matt Miller (Jonah 4:1-4) Often, what makes us mad reveals where our hearts are with God. Jonah's response to an entire city turning from sin is more surprising than the turning itself. Paying attention to where our anger is focused helps know how we are out of alignment with God.

Rev. Hannah Attaway (Mark 5:21-44)

Rev. Matt Miller (Jonah 3:1-10) Life is full of twists and turns, some of them happen to us, others are our responsibility/fault. What are our options when we take a wrong turn?

Rev. Matt Miller (Jonah 1:17-2:10) Jonah finally repents. It seems he's beginning to understand the significance of Grace. Have you?

Rev. Matt Miller (Jonah 1:1-3)

Dr. Zac Hicks (Job 2:7-13)

Rev. Matt Miller (Mark 11:12-25) Jesus seems like a pretty gentle guy until he isn't. In this passage, he becomes enraged, which catches us off-guard. One reason is because a place for prayer has become a place for taking advantage of poor worshippers. As we close our Shameless Audacity series, Jesus gives us a final call for prayer.

Rev. Matt Miller (Colossians 4:2-6)

Rev. Matt Miller (Luke 18:1-8) Sometimes it feels like we are powerless to change our world. Thankfully, Jesus gives us an example of a woman in need who was able to change an unlikely person through persistence. Her example teaches us to pray and not lose heart.
