Even though we’re still in winter, spring is on the way, and Lent is just around the corner. This week, Karen and Anne offer a run down of the many opportunities coming up in our faith community in the coming months
and invite you to spring forward in faith with us. There’s something for everyone and so much to look forward to!

James 5:7

Song of Songs 2:11-13

It's February 16th and today Karen and Anne welcome their spouses, Jeremy and Brian, to the podcast. Looking back on their decades of marriage, they discuss how they've learned to make it all work, and celebrate loving each other through the seasons of life.

Genesis 2:24
Proverbs 31:10

On Superbowl Sunday, our hosts Karen and Anne acknowledge the team that is our church and how we all work together to create this beautiful worship experience in our community. We explore: How is the church like a team? What is our mission? How do we show "team" spirit? What does it mean to belong? What does it look like to win? It's gametime!

Scripture Connections:
1 Corinthians 12 (whole chapter)
12:4-7: “There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there are different forms of service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone. To each individual the manifestation of the spirit is given for some benefit.”
12: 12 –13: “As a body is one though it has many parts, and all the parts of the body, though many, are one body, so also Christ. For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, slaves or free persons, and we were all given to drink of one Spirit.”

Hebrews 10:24-25: “We must consider how to rouse one another to love and good works. We should not stay away from our assembly, as is the custom of some, but encourage one another, and this all the more as you see the day drawing near.”

1 Corinthians 3:5-9: “What is Apollos, after all, and what is Paul? Ministers through whom you became believers, just as the Lord assigned each one. I planted, Apollos watered, but God caused the growth. Therefore, neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who causes the growth. The one who plants and the one who waters are equal, and each will receive wages in proportion to his labor. For we are God’s co-workers; you are God’s field, God’s building.”
