Three Dimensions: Living by Them

Over the course of many generations in our western Christian context, the understanding of faith has largely been reduced to believing in the existence of God. Over the past 3 weeks, Pastor Kessia Reyne has taught us that faith is so much more than that! Faith is belief that may or may not have evidence, but doesn’t wait for proof. Faith is trusting action, and in the proper royal context of the Gospel, it is allegiance to Jesus as King. This week, we are going to look closely at what it looks like to live by faith in all its dimensions.

Preparing Our Hearts for Worship 

Hey, hey, my beautiful PVC family,

I’m looking forward to getting up front and leading our sweet congregation in worship again this weekend. I missed you guys while I was away! It’s always such a joy and honor to stand with you and lift our voices together in praise.

Let’s get right into it—here’s what we’ll be singing this Sabbath: Holy, Holy, Holy, Bless God, What a Beautiful Name, Agnus Dei, and All Hail King Jesus.

There’s a lyric in Bless God that says, “Bless God with a praise that costs me… Every chance I get I bless Your name.”

This is the heartbeat of real faith—not just believing in God when it’s easy, but choosing to trust Him in every season. Faith is active; it’s what we live, how we praise, and who we choose to follow, even when no one is watching. That’s what faith looks like—it’s not just belief, but movement. It’s trust in action. It’s choosing to sing, to serve, to stay rooted—even when we can’t see the full picture yet.

I hope by now you’ve cultivated a rhythm of listening ahead to the songs we’ll be singing—not just to help you participate fully, but to gently recenter the eyes of your heart on Jesus as we prepare to Sabbath together.

Can’t wait to worship with you!
With love,
Hannah, Your Minister of Music ::

GIVING EMPHASIS:  Oregon Conference Evangelism

Sabbath, January 24

This weekend's giving emphasis is for Oregon Conference Evangelism—supporting the work of spreading the gospel across our state through church planting, public evangelism, community outreach, and equipping believers to share Jesus with boldness and love.

When we give, we’re investing in changed lives—opening doors for people to hear the good news, respond to Christ, and become part of His kingdom.

And as you give beyond the offering emphasis, please remember our PVC Church Ministries Budget—because strong local ministry is part of strong evangelism too.

Thank you, PVC, for giving generously to move the gospel forward across Oregon and here at home!
