Preaching: Mike Roth At the center of the sacred story we tell, week in and week out, is the mystery of Resurrection: life from death, light from darkness, creation from chaos. This story has occupied a central place in the Christian imagination because it points to a new way to live. In this series, we are exploring the way of life Jesus sets forth in his Sermon on the Mount. Resurrection speaks over every life, “You, whoever you are, whatever your circumstances, you are blessed because Divine Love is with you.” This vision of the resurrection life opens up new ways of being such as belonging, love and trust in community, and non-anxious relationship with one another and with the Divine. This series will suggest practices for living Christ’s wisdom within the texture of our ordinary lives. Pearl Church exists to express a sacred story and to extend a common table that animate life by love. A primary expression of our sacred story is the weekly sermon. If our sermons inspire you to ponder the sacred, to consider the mystery and love of God, and to live bountifully, would you consider supporting our work?

Preaching: Mike Roth Eastertide is a fifty day celebration between Resurrection Sunday and Pentecost. During this season, the altar is dressed in white to symbolize Christ’s triumph over darkness, sorrow, sin, and death. Golden communion vessels represent our joy as we celebrate, in the mystery of Jesus’ resurrection, the victory of life over death. The vibrant colors of the flowers remind us that the power that raised Christ from the dead is still at work redeeming and renewing this world and each of our lives.

Preaching: Jen Johnson At Pearl Church, we seek to express a sacred story and extend a common table that animate—move, motivate, inspire—our lives by Divine Love. Very often we find ourselves animated not by love, but by all-too familiar counterfeits like shame, fear, guilt, duty, and control. In this sermon series, we look to the life of Jesus, who turns a gentle and compassionate face toward people caught up in these animations, creating space for us to listen for the voice of love that beckons even in our deepest wounds and darkness. For love is strong enough to embrace and integrate all these animations, making us whole. Pearl Church exists to express a sacred story and to extend a common table that animate life by love.

Preaching: Mike Roth Today is Transfiguration Sunday. This special feast commemorates the miraculous change in Jesus’ appearance when he unveiled his glory on the Mount of Transfiguration. As the fulfillment of Epiphany’s longing, the transfiguration reveals not only the glory of Jesus’ way of life in the world, but it also casts vision for all that we can become, in the midst of what we are.  Pearl Church exists to express a sacred story and to extend a common table that animate life by love.

Preaching: Ben Conachan The tradition of wisdom is expansive. On the one hand, conventional wisdom provides insights into living when life goes as it’s expected to go. On the other hand, radical wisdom provides insights into living when life takes surprising turns. Then there’s stages of wisdom—pre-rational, rational, and post-rational—which offer unique insights into our many phases of development. And of course, in our Christian tradition, there’s Christ, who is called, “The wisdom of God.” This sermon series will plumb the depths of wisdom’s complexity, seeking light capable of holding us, grounding us, and inspiring us, no matter the circumstance or stage we find ourselves in.
