Maplewood Nazarene

Accountability is a BIG word. But what does it mean? And what does it look like in real life? Pastor Joe takes a shot at answering those questions as we check in on the unfolding story of Joseph in Genesis 42.

Maplewood worshipped on the lawn this week and continued its study of the story of Joseph. This week, as we focus on Genesis 41, we explore what it means to be trustworthy and trusted by God.

Most of us approach life with a “what’s in it for me?”-attitude. But Christ is calling us to something more. This week Maplewood continues to explore the Old Testament story of Joseph, in Genesis 40, seeking answers on what it takes to become people of character, integrity and holiness.

This week, Maplewood is continuing its “Second Nature” series. We all face tests in life. The question is “will we be ready to pass” those tests. Maplewood gathered online this week and Pastor Joe is focusing our attention on Genesis 39 as we continue to study the life of Joseph for clues on how we can become people of character, integrity and holiness.

Can you be trusted? In the book of Genesis could. He was became the “right hand man” to several leaders. How did that happen? And what are the implications of it for us as we aspire to follow Jesus? Join us for this week’s message from Maplewood as we continue our series entitled “Second Nature.”

Feel to far gone? Feel un-redeemable? Feel lost? This week’s message from Maplewood bring hope to each of us who feel like we aren’t good enough or won’t ever be good enough in God’s eyes. We’re focusing on Genesis 38–the story of Judah and Tamar–an important sidebar in the epic story of Joseph.

This week, Maplewood is gathering outdoors on our lawn…and we’re leaning into a new series entitled “Second Nature.” In this week’s installment, we’re studying the opening episode in the ancient story of Joseph, found in Genesis 37. Join us as we unpack this old, old story and discover how it can help us become more Christ-like in our journey with Jesus.

In our walk with Jesus, the prescription to help us deal with our sin problem is two-fold. We need a vaccine…but we also need a booster shot. Pastor Joe explains with deeper look at Colossians 1:21-24 in this week’s Maplewood Podcast…

We’ve all received an invitation, but Jesus offers us the ultimate invitation when He bids us to “Come, follow me.” Pastor Vicki delves into the implications behind this invitation and the life-changing power made available to those who choose to accept the offer.

We certainly live in uncertain times. This week, Maplewood’s Ed Klett explores the truth that God’s strength is perfect when our strength is shaken by uncertain times.
