| 11/25/2012 | Proclaim Christ As King We celebrate Christ as King on this Sunday, and note how he’s a king who loves us when we fail. |
The Rev. Bill Haley | ||
| 6/10/2012 | Grace for the Journey - Rules for the Road What are the Ten Commandments for? Just to obey a demanding God? No, they show us how to live in grace - the grace God gave the Israelites by bringing them to Himself out of Egypt on eagles' wings. The Law is a mirror that shows us our hearts and a path for us to walk on. |

| 11/13/2011 | A Day in the Life of Jesus: Praying Jesus, the Messiah, is the most amazing man ever to walk the earth. If we want to be like Jesus, we’ll do what he did. One thing he did every day was pray, and he shows us what prayer is. |

| 1/29/2011 | Proclaiming Jesus to the World When Jesus looked at the crowd he had compassion on them because they were harassed and helpless like sheep without a shepherd. Jesus tells us that the way to address these needs is to ask the Lord of the harvest to send out workers for the harvest. May we follow Jesus’ example and (1) be people who see and people who care, (2) be people who asks God to send out workers for the harvest, and (3) be the people who uses us to answer our prayer and make us disciples who make disciples! |
Shine the Light: Proclaiming Jesus! | The Rev. Wright Wall | |
| 1/22/2011 | Proclaiming Jesus as You Go We live in an age where God is expanding His kingdom one person at a time. Jesus chooses to use us to expand His kingdom by our actions and with our words. Three things to do to effectively tell others about the gospel of heaven: (1) Make time in your life to hang around with people that don’t know Jesus. (2) Think through your testimony and what your life was like before you met Christ, how you met Christ and what’s your life like since you met Christ. (3) Learn a simple illustration to explain the good news of the gospel of the kingdom of heaven. |

| 12/26/2010 | Jesus: Full of Grace and Truth The Rev. Robert Watkin speaks to The Falls Church from John 1:1-18. Jesus, as the Word made flesh, is the most supreme revelation of God, who became vulnerable for us and ever tabernacles among us as our ever-present God. |

| 12/4/2010 | The God who Wants to be Found The Rev. Wright Wall speaks to The Falls Church from John 14:8-11. When Jesus says “I am in the Father and the Father is in me,” he is saying, "I am God".
