Parables - Week Three/May 19, 2024/Glenn Barteau
Parables are stories that paint a picture that becomes a mirror that becomes a window through which we can look and have a deeper understanding of who God is. This week we looked at a parable from Luke 18:9-14 with a tax collector and a Pharisee. In learning more about this story, we were challenged to be honest to who we are, where we are, as we are, and have an open and vulnerable heart with God that is anchored in His love, power, and grace.

Parables Week Two / May 12, 2024 / Ryan Kramer
In this second week of our Parables series, we dove into the story of the Good Samaritan from Luke 10. We learned that in parables we’re supposed to see ourselves in the story and through that then see the heart of God. Sometimes religion gets to a space where it protects its own sense of righteousness rather than loving people. Understanding parables can bring us back to what really matters to God and what should matter to each of us.

Parables - Week One/May 5, 2024/Glenn Barteau
Is the story you’re telling with your life bigger than just you? We began our Parables series looking at Luke 12:16 - 21 and how it captures the idea that we should be less self-focused and more outwardly focused. We can connect to the larger picture if we change our mindset and begin from a place of gratefulness. We were challenged to think about what we invest in as a community and how we can further connect to the bigger story God is writing with us and through us, leading to a deeper, more meaningful life with Jesus.

Follow Jesus - Week Three/April 21, 2024/Glenn Barteau
In scripture, Jesus says, "Come follow me." What does that look like for each of us as we walk through life following Jesus? This series will look at some common steps we take in our Christian walk and what they mean within the context of following Jesus. In this third week, Glenn went over passages in Luke 22 and the story of the Passover from the Old Testament to help clearly explain the importance of communion. Because Jesus is enough - you're enough and this is the beauty of communion.
