Sometimes the journey to freedom can feel frustrating. Yet even when the uncertainty of the journey causes us to quarrel with others and test the presence of God, we can also choose to trust that God will provide. To “Let God Finish” is to trust that God can and believe that God will…finish. This Sunday morning, join Rev. Racquel Gill ...

How do we right-size our labor in the Kingdom of God to fit our capacities?

God, who sent His Son Jesus Christ as a child to save humankind, holds and protects the children of the world regardless of how society may or may not hold them as precious. This Sunday morning, Rev. Lisa ...

As we remain open to encounter God in new ways in new seasons, may this encounter compel us to reconsider the scripts we rehearse about who we are and where we are.

Nothing can separate us from the love of God. If our very breath can offer praise to God, then perhaps our sighs, our groans, and our moans can be a Divine sign that the Spirit is at work with us.

So much of how we understand rest in our culture is tied to what we earn and how we hustle, instead of seeing it as a gift that Christ invites us into.
