If you’ve been paying attention, Pastor Doug’s messages have drawn from Brian McLaren’s book “Everything must change.”

Here’s the link to the website: everythingmustchange.org Lots of good stuff there along the lines of the practical ministry we’ve been hearing about.

Enjoy!

Here’s a video of the Sermon from the Salem UMC Contemporary (Praise) Service (”The River”).  Enjoy!

You may have noticed the big structure in front of Salem UMC.  Well, that is to draw attention to the upcoming sermon and study series on The Shack by William P. Young.   This book has been called controversial and even blasphemous.  It has also been called one of the most powerfully moving books people have read.  We understand there are strong feelings on this, but this book has also opened many hearts to the understand and received the deep healing and comforting that only God can provide.

• Worship service messages. These will use elements and themes from The Shack to illustrate key principles.  This coincides with our ongoing Lenten observance.
• Evening studies.  On Tuesdays at 7:00pm starting March 3rd, join us in the Worship Center for a weekly book study.  This will be a wonderful complement to the Sunday worship messages.
