This week, join us as we explore the theme of God’s miraculous intervention throughout the Old Testament and its profound connection to Pentecost. Together, we’ll ponder the intriguing question: Why does goodness often seems chaotic in this world?

Understanding our own belovedness transforms us, and in doing so transforms our understanding of others. When we see others through the eyes of Jesus’ love we realize that even our enemies are beloved. But belovedness does not mean we lack boundaries, but instead belovedness calls us into transformed living. 

This week, Brian will be rounding off the current series with his topic on how Belovedness Transforms Enemies.  He will be looking at the story of Paul and Ananias, with scripture taken from Acts 9:9-19 and Galatians 1:15-20.

As we continue our series on Belovedness, Cathleen will guide us through “Breaking the Binary of Belovedness.” We’ll explore how everyone, from the prodigal to the powerful, from the marginalized to the magnified, is deeply cherished. Join us as we embark on a journey beyond the constraints of binary thinking to recognizing, celebrating and embracing the belovedness of all, paving the way for individual and communal healing.

This Sunday we will begin a sermon series on Belovedness. Mark Dettweiler will speak about the positive changes that arise as we embrace God’s love for us and live each day as His beloved.  

In the accounts of the Resurrection recorded in the varied Gospels a strange theme occurs: when Jesus shows up after the his resurrection even the people who knew Him most intimately fail to recognize Him! Join us this Easter morning as we look at these puzzling stories and unpack the ways that we too can fail to recognize Jesus and the work of Resurrection in own lives. 

Join us on Palm Sunday as we explore repentance as a radical reimagining of a better world beyond our current constructs. Discover how the crowds lining the streets on Palm Sunday struggled to envision a better way, and how Jesus’ entrance was inviting both them and us to imagine and partner with Him in ushering in the new KINdom.
