Being the Church
​Aug. 9-30, 2020

It has been five months since we have joined together in worship. We miss singing together, praying together, and greeting one another with smiles, handshakes and hugs. Yet in this time of all times, we are reminded that the church is not bound by our buildings. In the Apostle Paul’s second letter to the believers in Corinth, he describes three images for the church. None of these images are dependent upon a building. As the summer draws to a close, it is good for us to remember that we will never change the world by just going to church. We will only change the world by being the church. ​

What the Church Has Been
Youth Sunday, Aug. 30, 2020 - Jake Fay, Jilli Foley and Katie Hull
Village Church youth reflect on a time when church has been present in their lives in a way that was meaningful. How might that be something the church needs to be for others in these days? And how can we actively make that happen? The scripture reading is Matthew 16:13-19.

New Creations
Aug. 23, 2020 - Rev. Dr. Rodger Nishioka
As Rev. Dr. Rodger Nishioka concludes the “Being the Church” preaching series, the Apostle Paul offers up one more image for being followers of Jesus: new creations. It is so important that we understand that because of God’s love for us, we are made new. And not only are we made new, those around us are also new creations. Our scripture reading is 2 Corinthians 5:16-17.

Jars of Clay
Aug. 16, 2020 - Rev. Dr. Rodger Nishioka
The Apostle Paul says we have this “treasure in clay jars,” plain ordinary clay jars. In part two of the sermon series "Being the Church," the Rev. Dr. Rodger Nishioka preaches do not be fooled by our outward appearance. We may look like ordinary folk, but the truth is, we have the treasure of Jesus Christ inside us! Our scripture reading is 2 Corinthians 4:7-12.
