Messages from Douglas UCC Douglas Congregational United Church of Christ

Remember the warmth you felt when someone was kind to you. What did they do? Jesus says that faith the size of a mustard seed is all we need to make a difference in the world. Rev. Jodi Betten talks about how kindness makes a difference.

In today’s Gospel, Jesus asks who his family is. What does your family of choice like? Does it fit the phrase ‘traditional family values’?

Rev. Jody explores today's all-important question for our church - and any church. Why do we have the Vision we have? Why do we do this church thing? Are we making choices that support our Why?

Rev. Jody helps us explore all of our connections on this Memorial Day weekend. How are we connected to each other, our church, our sibling churches, other denominations and faith traditions, and the world, and God? Quite a big think, don't you think?

Systems and Structures and Leadership! Rev. Jody, our interim pastor, shares a Pentecost message: the world was shaken, and a new world order emerged. How have we been shaken, and how will it make our foundation stronger for our future?

Michigan Conference minister, Rev. Lillian Daniel, author, homilist, and humorist offered this lovely interpretation of scripture and a hilarious-loving homily to illustrate the Body of Christ, with a Mother's Day message running in the current.
