 Message: Genesis 28:10-22 “The House of God” While Jacob is on a long journey, he makes a startling discovery. He has an encounter with God and believes himself to have found The House of God, the place where Heaven and Earth overlap. But the real revelation is much deeper than that. The House of God is never far from any one of us.  

 Message: Matthew 4:18-22  “Called” This Father’s Day we are also celebrating the completion and graduating Discipleship/Confirmation Class. In this message we will look at Jesus’ calling of his first disciples and how He calls each of us to leave behind something else and follow Him.  

Message: John 16:5-16 “Intertwined”  On this Trinity Sunday we’ll talk about how God exists in eternal relationship. God is not some distant, detached being, but is eternally personal and engaged. From the Love of the Trinity overflows the outpouring of humanity. Human beings are by nature relational beings. Our greatest wounds and greatest joys are experienced within the context of relationships. In this way, we are like the God who Created us.   

 Message: Isaiah 7:14, 9:6-7“Birthing and Co-Creation” In this message, we will talk about how each of us is called to birth the divine vision in and through our lives. In this way, we are ‘co-creators’ with God. This birthing includes our own spiritual formation and the personal ministry God does through us.

 Message: Duet 5:15, Luke 5:15 “Remembering Rightly” In this message, we take a look at what it means to Remember Rightly. There is a Redemptive way of Remembering, that looks not only at the hurt we’ve suffered, but at the Restoration God brought and brings about for us.  

 Message: Luke 1:39-56 “Birthing the Holy: Incubation” After the Annunciation came the Incubation period, where God’s Call on Mary’s life began to form within her. In the same way, so much of our life is actually the development of God’s Call on our lives maturing within and through us.

Message: “Birthing the Holy” (Part 1) Luke 1:26-38  This Mother’s Day we begin a two part series, learning from Mary’s relationship with God. In this first part, we’ll be looking at Mary’s acceptance of God’s call and the work God was doing inside of her. Her life is a pattern for the life we’re called to have with God.   

 Message: Mark 16:1-8 “Becoming Human Again” On this third Sunday of Easter we reflect on the significance of Christ becoming human and what Jesus’ fully human experience means for our fully human experience.  

Message: Luke 24:13-35 “Tombs to Talks” On this second Sunday of Easter, we look at the place of the Empty Tomb in Jerusalem’s Church of the Holy Sepulchre to the Talk on the Road to Emmaus. The tomb is found empty and soon after Jesus appears to two disciples on a road going toward the village of Emmaus. Jesus continues to appear to us on the many roads of our lives, speaking life and hope.   

Message: John 12: 12-19 “Palms” On this Palm Sunday, Jesus makes a grand entrance as he comes riding into Jerusalem. His entrance is filled with meaning and understood properly, it is at odds with what the crowd wanted and expected. Even the disciples didn't understand the implications until after Jesus' resurrection. In the same way, our understanding and image of God continues to grow and be redefined as we grow in our relationship with Him. What are the old images of God that weren't accurate and perhaps continue to hinder you? How is your understanding of who God really is continuing to develop as you continue to get to know Him more?
