Christ in the Wilderness - Week One

This week, Adam begins our new series, "Christ in the Wilderness," in Exodus 15. 

Lenten Audio Reflection - Un-distracting Ourselves from Our Need for God

Un-distracting Ourselves from Our Need for God
Lent is a season of preparation for Good Friday, and ultimately Easter Sunday. It is a journey where we take time to face the reality of our need for God. This Lent, as we journey toward the cross, we welcome you to engage the Church at the Well Lenten devotional reader.
In addition, we will be offering three audio reflections between Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, starting with this one, in which we consider the wisdom of Isaiah for our journey and the invitation to un-distract ourselves through a Lenten practice that will bear fruit not only in our lives, but in the lives of others as well.
We hope these resources will enrich your journey as together we ready ourselves to remember the suffering and death of Jesus, and to celebrate his resurrection.
 
Follow along with the Lenten Devotional Reader here.

Our Relationship with Worry
Worry is a natural part of life; even Jesus worried. But worry can easily malfunction in our lives, leading to chronic anxiety. How do we cultivate a healthy relationship with worry? In this sermon, Adam explores Jesus’ teaching on worry using the Jesus Storybook Bible, and offers four strategies for keeping our worry right-sized. 

Let the Children Come - Week Three

Learning to Pray Like a Child (Again)
When Jesus taught the disciples to pray in Matthew 6, he addressed God as “Abba,” or “Daddy.” Every time we pray, we can be reminded that we come to God as children. In this sermon, Abby explores three common characteristics of children’s approaches to prayer and what we can learn from them.
