Pastoral Prayer & The Lord’s Prayer Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, And forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors, And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Offering Our Gifts
I’m Gonna Sing ’Til the Spirit Moves in My Heart Moses Hogan
Prayer of Confession Gracious and loving God, because of what you have done for us in Jesus Christ we have good news to share with the world. In Jesus we know your love and through him we find forgiveness. We confess that we have not lived as people who have good news. We have regarded those who are different from us as the enemy. At times we have shown the world an angry or anxious face. Forgive us for failing to live the good news we claim to believe. Equip us now with the gospel of peace and send us to share it boldly in the week ahead. Restore your peace to us now as we offer our silent prayers of confession…
I’m gonna sing ‘til the spirit moves in my heart. I’m gonna sing ‘til Jesus comes.

How fitting that the author of the phrase “be doers of the word” was James, Joseph’s biological son and Jesus’ half-brother. Both Jesus and James grew up in Joseph’s carpenter’s shop, and carpenters tend to be practical people. Like his father, James was about tools. Tools help us shape reality and impact the world. In his book, James helps us learn the craftsmanship of faith. What are the practices we can apply daily to create a life of true beauty and excellence? A new series starts February 22.
