We continue a Lenten series exploring what faith and following Jesus looks like in a city experiencing economic downturn – facing fear, identifying with Christ, trusting his love…
We continue our series on, ‘The Parable of the Tanking Economy’. This message will focus on the theme of worry.
We begin a new series called, The Parable of the Tanking Economy. In this message Pastor John will focus on the topic of uncertainty.
In this message Pastor Rich takes a "kid friendly" look at the wild prophetic vision of Ezekiel in "The Valley of Dry Bones." We’ll consider how every good thing has God behind it, and how God doesn’t wait for us to give grace. Rattle Dem Bones!
Pastor Rich is looking at the connection between what we do "in here" (songs, sermons, fellowship, baptism) and our lives the other six days. Are our lives songs? Sermons? Mirrors of the fellowship and community of God? Lives "immersed" and baptized in God’s life? Parables to participate in!
Pastor John looks for God’s cloaked heart through the phenomenon of mystery.
Jesus taught the people in parables. Parables weren't merely illustrations, but they also weren't merely words on a page. Sometimes they’re lived realities that we "stumble" into.
In this message we’re going to explore God’s all-seeing, vision-diagnosing, image-correcting heart through the vocation of an optometrist.
In this message Pastor Rich looks at Acted Parables – deliberate symbolic public actions that radically call attention to spiritual truth. We’ll look at the Acted Parables of Jesus, the great prophets and wonder… What place do Acted Parables have today? What place might they have?
In this message we’re going to search for God’s emotional truth in the film Inside Out. We are made in the image of a God who feels both joy AND suffering.
Get me to the hospital! Continuing on the ADVENT theme of pregnancy, in this message we’ll be looking at the urgency of labor, the fullness of time, and the longing and groaning of creation to see all things new!
In this message we’re going to look at God’s creation birthing heart through the miraculous phenomenon of gestation.
In this message Pastor Rich begins Advent reflecting on our lack and places of suffering where we long to see Christ come – Christ who identifies with our suffering and gives us hope in the midst of hurt.
We wrap up our sermon series on the University by looking at the vocation of a professor. How do they uniquely image God’s teaching heart? How can you experience God more in the teaching moments that fill your life?
We continue to look at The University. We’ll look through labs and research departments into our own lives and practice to recover our calling as researchers - equipped with the God-given and God-imaging gifts of curiosity and discovery.
