This Sunday, we're continuing in our Everyday Ordi

This Sunday, we're continuing in our Everyday Ordinary series talking about what the Scriptures have to say about our everyday, ordinary work - so we want to know! What do you do for work? Doctor, restaurant server, parent, student, still looking - we want to hear! Comment below.

Before we gather, take some time to read through one of the passages we'll be unpacking: Genesis 2:1-15, or Exodus 31:1-5. Let the Holy Spirit begin to prep your heart for however God may want to move. We can't wait to see you Sunday — 11:30 AM, online and in person.

Today, may we reflect on the call to follow in Jes

Today, may we reflect on the call to follow in Jesus’ footsteps and become peacemakers — not just peacekeepers — pursuing the peace which MLK Jr. was known to say isn’t found in the absence of tension, but rather the presence of justice.

Here are a few scriptures we want to encourage you to reflect on today!

Psalm 34:14 // Isaiah 1:17 // Micah 6:8 // Deuteronomy 32:4

Dear church, I want to ask that you'd tear away f

Dear church,

I want to ask that you'd tear away from the noise of social media and news at some point today to come before Jesus, pray for our nation, and care for your heart. Here are a few things that might look like...

1) Lament: over the state of our country and the sinful state of the human heart that got us here. Weep with Jesus over the lack of peace in our nation (Luke 19:41). Listen to and grieve with racial minorities, many who are feeling especially frustrated and discouraged today. If that is you, know that we hurt with you.

2) Repent: of every allegiance that has superseded allegiance to the Jesus we know through Scripture.

3) Reanchor: your hope and humility. As Christians, we hope in a King and Kingdom beyond that of this world, let alone any one country - this hope is our anchor, and it's just as firm and secure today as it was yesterday (Heb. 6:19). Breathe that in. Reanchor your humility by remembering that each of us fall short daily of being the kind of people we hope and claim to be (Isaiah 53:6).

4) Remember: Jesus, the One whose humble leadership we can trust, who saved not by taking up arms but by laying down His life.

Don't have the words to pray any of this yet? Simply spend some time on your knees. Let your knees do the praying and let the Spirit intercede for you (Rom. 8:26).

Lamenting, repenting, reanchoring, and remembering with you today.

For the glory of God and the sake of the world,

— Pastor Taylor

Midweek reminder: keep your eyes open for ways God

Midweek reminder: keep your eyes open for ways God’s extraordinary presence can shape your ordinary responsibilities, conversations, and struggles today!

“‘...the place where you are standing is holy ground.’” Exodus 3:5

How ironic that our everyday ordinary lives can be

How ironic that our everyday ordinary lives can be a reflection of our extraordinary God. Yet God, in all his grandeur, delights to use the ordinary. He’s glorified in it. He even invites us to reimagine it.

Join us at 11:30 this morning, either online or in person, as we begin our new series for the month of January: Everyday Ordinary.

We’ll be celebrating communion, so if you’re joining us from home and you haven’t already, go ahead and grab some communion elements and get ready to gather!

As you walk into 2021 today, spend some time seeki

As you walk into 2021 today, spend some time seeking God for His vision over your life this next year:

Where might He be pushing you to grow? What convictions have been disrupting you? What dreams might He want you to cultivate? What promises might He want you to rest in? What’s a discipline or habit He might want you to adopt? Could there be a word, phrase, or Scripture that God wants to lay on your heart to cast vision over your 2021?

Happy New Year, Vessel family!

We can't wait to celebrate the birth of our King!

We can't wait to celebrate the birth of our King! If you feel more comfortable celebrating with us virtually for the 11 PM service, we'd love to make it a little extra special for you. We've put together some boxes with the communion elements, a candle (for the candlelight portion of the night), and a few other treats that we'd love to deliver to your doorstep. If you're in the Oviedo/Orlando area, text 407-494-4128 by Wednesday, December 23 at 3 PM with your name, address, and how many from your household will be attending with you.

When we give God access to our lives and our stori

When we give God access to our lives and our stories, there is never a moment that is wasted. All the moments of waiting, listening, struggling, and doubting become notes in a new song God is composing. In every season - even the crazy one you’re in right now - there is always a song He has written, and a new song He is writing (Psalm 40:1-3).
