Love Poured Out | Sermon | Philippians 2 | Palm Sunday | 4.10.22
Jesus empties himself, pouring out divine love through humble service and using his power and privilege to raise up those who have been crushed and pushed down. We are raised to new life by this love Jesus pours out for us and for all creation. How can we show the same love and have the same mind…

Cultivating Compassion | Sermon | Luke 15 | Lent 4 | 3.27.22
The parable of the man with two sons (prodigal son) centers not so much on the “dissolute living” of the younger son as it does on the compassion of the father. How is God cultivating that same kind of compassion in us? Love that does not stand far off, hold onto vengeance for a past…
Letting Go in Order to Grow | Sermon | Luke 13 | Lent 3 | 3.20.22
Is this tree wasting soil or has it not been cultivated properly? What do we need to uproot and what do we need to tend?

Cultivate Compassion & Let Go of Judgment | Sermon | Lent 2 | Luke 13 | 3.13.22

Beautiful Dust | Sermon | Ash Wednesday | 3.2.22
Beautiful and Beloved. Spirit and Bone. Dust and Soul. That’s what you are. Constantly carrying in you the reality and truth of your mortality and the same atoms and particles that have been in the cosmos since creation. Held together by the love of God seen most clearly in the cross of…
Transfiguration: Outward Change Revealing Identiy | Sermon | Luke 9 | 2.27.22
We see the glory of God more clearly revealed in Jesus in the story of the Transfiguration. Jesus’ outer appearance changes in a way that enables others to more clearly see who Jesus is – the beloved Son of God. God is at work changing us so that others can more easily and clearly see…
Forgiveness & Freedom | Sermon | Luke 6 | 2.20.22
“Forgiveness is setting someone free and then realizing it’s you.” – Rob Bell
Hope On The Level | Sermon | Luke 6:17-26 | 2.13.2022
