Messy Love
Love is Messy. So how do we remain or become a loving human being? The Bible has a lot to say about love. It’s my heart’s desire (get it?), that we utilize the tools and knowledge we have been given to become the best loving version of ourselves that God created us to be. Won’t you join me in exploring how we can love God, others and ourselves better? Scripture: Deuteronomy 6:5; Mat. 22:37-38; Psalm 27:4-1; John 5:2-3; Psalm 23:6;…
2020 – What’s Your Vision?
As the New Year begins, we begin to notice our friends and colleagues talking about New Years Resolutions, focus words and phrases; health goals; professional aspirations and more. As Christians, how do we reconcile planning for the future and yet letting God lead us daily? Get ready to let go of resolutions that fade into the past as the year continues and join me while we explore how we go about discerning God’s plan for our lives. Scripture: Lamentations 3:22-23;…
SuperMe? Or SuperThankful?
Do you know a SuperMommy? SuperMan? A SuperChristian? Those are the type of people we tend to only see their amazing outcomes and from that can grow an unhealthy desire to be someone or something we were not created to be. As we focus on gratitude this season, may I suggest that in order to truly experience gratitude, we need to unpack how these desires can hinder our attitude of gratitude? Scripture: James 1:13-15; Proverbs 31:10-31; Psalm 46:10; Psalm 10:4;…
Good-Bye Pastor John and Denise McGhee!
We are saying good-bye to our pastor and his family as he retires.
Freedom Sabbath
Do you remember where you were when you learned about 9/11? It was much the same for me when I first learned about Human Trafficking back in November of 2013. My world stopped turning as I learned that there are more people enslaved today than the whole of slaves during the great abolition of slavery in the 1800s. How could I have not known this was happening, not just in foreign countries, but RIGHT HERE, in AMERICA?!? Join me as…
How I Became A Christian
Everyone has their story and a different path to Christ. Three ladies share their totally different journeys to their savior, Jesus Christ. Scripture: John 3:16; Joshua 1:5; Jeremiah 29:11; Matthew 11:28-29; Isiah 43:2; Romans 10:17; II Timothy 2:15; Malachi 3:6; Ephesians 6:11-12 “How I Became A Christian” preached by Joy Curtis, Ann Struther, and Melissa Baskett on March 16th, 2019 at the Mount Vernon Seventh-day Adventist Church in Mount Vernon, Washington
About Face
Calling all people struggling to change bad behaviors, as well as those who have “been there, done that”. What will it take and how do we do it? Join Melissa as we wrestle with the affects of sin and bad behavior and listen to God’s sweet message, calling us out of the depravity of this world and into the rest and beauty of His grace. Scripture: Romans 7:18; 1 Kings 21; Proverbs 25:28; 2nd Samuel 11; Matthew 5:21-24; 2 Kings…
Life Song
Living an integrated life is something we can learn about from Daniel. Like Daniel, our lives are a reflection of our convictions and commitments. Spend a little time with us as we study Daniel and his journey of faith and living up to his convictions. Scripture: Daniel 1:3-6; Daniel 1:17-20; Proverbs 16:3; Matthew 25; Col. 2:7; 2 Cor. 3:18; “Life Song” preached by Melissa Baskett on September 1st, 2018 at the Mount Vernon Seventh-day Adventist Church in Mount Vernon, Washington
Reach, Rescue and Restore
What do Nutella Spread and Human Trafficking have in common? It might seem absurd, but join us in exploring slaves of the Bible times and modern day. Human trafficking is modern day slavery, it is violence to some of the most vulnerable. No place is immune to the atrocities of human trafficking and we must therefore understand how we can reach, rescue and restore those who have been enslaved. Proverbs 31:8-9 tells us to speak up for those unable to speak…
Reconciliation – Are You Brave Enough?
At the start of a New Year, we all tend to start purging unhealthy things from our lives: unhealthy foods; bad habits; clutter; sometimes even toxic people or relationships. But have you ever wondered how reconciliation comes into play in our relationships? When should we reconcile? How do we reconcile? What is God’s plan for reconciliation in our earthly relationships? Join us as we unpack these questions and search the Bible for guidance. Scripture: Matthew 5:23-24; Genesis 33:4; Genesis 45:4-8;…
