Dinner & a Movie Wrap-up

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

by Intern Justin Williams
 
Praise be to God for another God glorifying and successful Tuesday night in August! The numbers for this Tuesday’s California Dinner and a Movie event were outstanding!
The evening began as the body of Mars Hill West Seattle descended as a great cloud of witnesses onto the restaurants around the Admiral Theater. [...]



Party in the Park wrap-up

Saturday, August 16th, 2008

by alan andersen
It is hard to believe that we are already at the half way point in the month of August! In light of this fact, it’s pretty amazing what God has allowed us to accomplish as a church body on the Tuesday’s in August thus far. It might not seem like anything [...]

Each community group and ministry team will select a service project in their neighborhood, among their affinity group (i.e. high school, business, etc) or with an established service organization.

Everclear @ Downtown

Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008

One of my personal favorites, ever since I first heard the simple laid-back guitar of their single “Santa Monica”, is playing at the Downtown Campus of Mars Hill Church in just a week. Needless to say, I’m excited.
The show will be a benefit for New Horizons, a non-profit group that works with street youth [...]



Driving Ms. Amy

Thursday, March 13th, 2008

Sixteen days ago, I had surgery to repair a hernia in my esophagus.  In the weeks since, I’ve had to adjust to a different way of life, including letting people shuttle me around from place to place, since I can’t drive myself very well yet.
I’ve also come to realize that this mirrors my spiritual state.  [...]



As I consider a chain of events.

Wednesday, March 5th, 2008

My Grandmother on my mom’s side died on or around Valentine’s Day a few years ago. She was a sturdy, healthy woman, who simply grew too old for her body to carry her. She died peacefully in her own bed, with my step-father, Gordy, by her side.
My mom was getting her hair done at the [...]



Appreciating Good Wine and Good Scripture

Thursday, February 28th, 2008

My husband and I recently visited my favorite local winery:  Chateau Ste. Michelle in Woodinville.  I could spend all day walking around their grounds, chasing the peacocks, sipping a variety of wines, and poking through the gift shop.  We also took the free tour of the facility, followed by a wine tasting.
At our wine tasting, [...]



Does this clutter make my butt look fat?

Saturday, February 23rd, 2008

Recently when a girlfriend came over for lunch, I had to clear a path for her through the living room, then clear off the counter to make lunch, then clear off the dining table so we could eat.
We had a good laugh about it, mostly because in the humor of the moment I decided to [...]



Last Day of GiveLove

Saturday, February 16th, 2008

The Last Day of GiveLove is tomorrow and we still need more canned protein items (tuna, peanut butter), baby food, formula and diapers, fresh produce, fresh milk, cheese and yogurt, nutritional supplements, plastic and paper grocery bags, unused food-grade plastic bags, twist ties, pet food, and white copier paper. Bring your donations in and [...]




JONAH - August 27th, 2008

Jonah 3:1-10 | The Mission of God

We left Jonah, at the end of chapter two, vomit-drenched standing on the beach having spent the last three days inside a great fish. As he comes to his senses, and his eyes acclimate to the light, the word of the Lord comes to him a second time, saying “Arise, go to Nineveh, that [...]

Alki Beach Baptisms - Summer ‘08

By Justin Williams

Once again, our great cloud of witnesses descended on West Seattle to enjoy food, fellowship, and this time believer baptisms.
After enjoying some techno beats and delicious food, the roughly 270 attendees heard a quick word from Pastor Adam and savored the testimonies [...]
