Call to Worship (Psalm 146) Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord, O my soul! I will praise the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praises to my God all my life long. Do not put your trust in princes, in mortals, in whom there is no help. When their breath departs, they return to the earth; on that very day their plans perish. Happy are those whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord their God, who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them; who keeps faith forever; who executes justice for the oppressed; who gives food to the hungry. The Lord will reign forever, your God, O Zion, for all generations. Praise the Lord!

Scripture Reading Luke 16:19-31 N.T. page 75 Call to Confession Unison Prayer of Confession God of every good gift, we need to confess, how often we are not content with the simple gifts and lives you offer. Tempted by everything, we can become insensitive to those who have nothing. Encouraged by the world to accumulate more, we may miss the chance to gather your goodness and godliness. Chasing after all which has no value, we may not have the energy to pursue the faith, the love, the righteousness you have for us. Forgive us. You have sent Jesus, who speaks the words we need to listen to in order to have life. Help us to remember how you have redeemed us, and in remembering, may we make that good confession that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior, now and forever. (a time of silent confession) Kyrie No. 576 Lord, Have Mercy congregation sings twice Declaration of Forgiveness Our God is a God of grace and mercy and love. Know that our sins have been forgiven. May we be strengthened in all goodness. Since we have been raised with Christ, let us seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Thanks be to God! In Jesus Christ we are forgiven.

Scripture Reading 1 Timothy 6:6-19 N.T. page 198 Sermon “Walk the Line” Dr. Dan DeBevoise The Affirmation of Faith pg. 35 The Apostles Creed Presentation of Tithes and Offerings Offertory On Eagle’s Wings (based on Psalm 91) Chancel Choir Words and music by Michael Joncas, 1979 Arranged by Lloyd Larson, 2009

You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord, who abide in his shadow for life, say to the Lord, My refuge, my Rock in whom I trust!

(Refrain) And he will raise you up on eagle’s wings, bear you on the breath of dawn, make you to shine like the sun, and hold you in the palm of his hand.

The snare of the fowler will never capture you, and famine will bring you no fear; under his wings your refuge, his faithfulness your shield. (Refrain)

You need not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day; though thousands fall about you, near you it shall not come. (Refrain)
