February 27, 2026


In the quiet of the garden, Jesus faced overwhelming sorrow and anguish. Wrestling with the weight of what lay ahead, He poured out His heart to the Father and chose obedience over escape. This week reminds us that real faith is not the absence of pain, but the decision to trust God in the middle of it. We will learn how to surrender our will and cling to God when the path is difficult.


Rachel Carosiello, Adult Discipleship Pastor, will be preaching in the Auditorium for the Contemporary Worship services; Bill Bouknight, Retired GMC Guest Pastor, will be preaching in the Sanctuary for the Traditional Worship services.


For those worshiping remotely, you're invited to watch our services online, on Facebook and YouTube.

Pastor's Study - The Power and Promise of Easter

Led by Pastoral Team

Easter isn’t just a date on the calendar; it’s the most significant event in human history. It’s the celebration of Jesus’ resurrection from the dead, and His victory over everything that holds us back in our earthly lives. It’s the day we focus on the promise and power of Jesus and draw closer to Him.


Join Christine Caine and Lisa Harper in a transformative study that goes beyond tradition. Walk with them through the Lenten season, taking in the details of Jesus’ life, the agony of His death and the overwhelming joy of His resurrection. Relive His steps with a heart full of hope. See it all with eyes of faith. You’ll be ready to celebrate Easter in more ways than you ever have and be inspired to share the joy only Jesus could make possible.


Living Nephesh: Becoming Whole in Breath and Body

Led by Dr. Payton Foust

What if healing isn’t about fixing parts of yourself but becoming whole? In Living Nephesh, family physician, Mt. Horeb member and writer Payton Foust explores the biblical vision of the nephesh, the living soul, and what it means to live an integrated life of body, mind and spirit. Drawing from Scripture, medical insight and personal stories, this study invites participants to move from fragmented living to embodied faith. If you’re feeling burned out, spiritually dry or divided within, this study offers a gentle and grace-filled path toward wholeness. Please purchase the book here.


The Foundation of Christian Financial Stewardship

Led by Charles Moore

This study provides a clear, biblical foundation for understanding money through the lens of faith. Participants will explore how generosity, stewardship and trust in God shape the way we handle our finances. Rather than viewing generosity as a burden, this study reframes it as a spiritual rhythm—one that aligns our hearts with God’s purposes and leads to freedom and joy. Discover how living with open hands invites God’s abundance into every area of life.

Blood Drive



Join us for our blood drive on March 16 from 1-6 PM in the Student Room. The American Red Cross is facing a severe blood shortage as requests from hospitals exceed the available supply, drawing down the blood supply by about 35% over the past month. The shortage is especially serious for platelets and type O, A negative and B negative blood. Without immediate action, patients face serious risk. Your help is needed right now.
