  1. 9 DE DEZ.

    December 2024 - Advent

    "What an opportunity we have during this season to sit in wonder and delight at what God has done and is still doing. The coming of Jesus is a fulfillment of a promise that the hungry will be fed, the hurting and suffering will find comfort and compassion, and justice will reign. The mighty reversal of the world has just begun, and during Advent, we are reminded to look for these promises being fulfilled, even if we only catch a glimpse." - Kate Bowler At our Celebration this month we pause our journey through the Sermon on the Mount to observe Advent and talk about the promise of God's compassion.

  2. 7 DE OUT.

    October 2024 - Kingdom Manifesto (Matthew 5:27-32)

    "I learned this in my research. Ancient Israel didn't have a big problem with adultery, the physical act. And one of the things they loved about that is they hung that in pride saying, 'Look at us in comparison to our Roman counterparts. We are staying faithful.' Yet, that wasn't enough for Jesus...this is a heart problem." - Adam Oliver We continued our three-year trek through the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) in a series we’re calling “Kingdom Manifesto.” This month, we are looking at the heart of Matthew 5 (Matthew 5:27-32), and are wrestling with lust, the way we treat other people, and forgiveness.

  3. 3 DE SET.

    September 2024 - Kingdom Manifesto (Matthew 5:21-26)

    “Reconciling might look like laying down the need to be right or proven right. It might mean being the first to apologize for something, even if the other person has done greater harm in your eyes. It might mean apologizing and not getting an apology in return. It might mean, if you’re unable to reconnect with this person, finding forgiveness in your heart in order to let go of that anger and contempt. Our obedience to Jesus’ command doesn’t guarantee that the brother, sister, or adversary on the other side of the equation is going to follow suit. The question is can we lay down our pride to be reconciled and peacemakers without a return on our personal investment?” - Victoria Roberts We continued our three-year trek through the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) in a series we’re calling “Kingdom Manifesto.” This month, we are looking at the heart of Matthew 5 (Matthew 5:21-26), and are wrestling with anger, contempt, and reconciliation.

  4. 5 DE AGO.

    August 2024 - Kingdom Manifesto (Matthew 5:17-20)

    “In this, Jesus wants to subvert their whole idea of the law and righteousness in the first place. He wants to point them to a higher understanding of God’s intent for humanity...his intent for the law was never to create shame spiral communities where everyone can try to be better than each other. The intent of the law was never to create legalism, but to point to something greater, to point to flourishing human community with God.” - Jeremy Smith & Johanna Beachy Last evening, we continued our three-year trek through the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) in a series we’re calling “Kingdom Manifesto.” This month, we are looking at the heart of Matthew 5 (Matthew 5:17-20), and are framing out what these verses mean and why they matter today.

  5. 7 DE MAI.

    May 2024 - Kingdom Manifesto (Matthew 5:6-8)

    “We are a people in the process of being shaped and being formed by God in the Kingdom and for the Kingdom.” - Damaris Taylor This month, we continued our three-year trek through the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) in a series we’re calling “Kingdom Manifesto.” At this Celebration, we looked at the second part of the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:6-8), and framed out what these verses mean and why they matter today.

  6. 8 DE ABR.

    April 2024 - Kingdom Manifesto (Matthew 5:3-5)

    "...we might say that why you do what you do, is more important than what you do. Jesus 'kingdom values' (or, 'beatitudes') turned the cultural values of his day (and ours) on their head. Jesus calls us to radically reorient our lives." We continue our three-year trek through the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) in a series we're calling "Kingdom Manifesto." This month, we looked at the beginning of the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:3-5), and framed out what these verses mean and why they matter today.

  7. 4 DE MAR.

    March 2024 - Kingdom Manifesto (Introduction)

    “As a network, we’ve been saying a lot that we want to become beautiful kingdom people...people rooted in Jesus’ claim on reality. I don’t know about you, but that feels hard. It’s so easy to say you want that until you’re confronted with some random hard thing on a regular Tuesday. Suddenly it doesn’t feel very good. But we want to build every aspect of our lives on what Jesus says is good, true, beautiful, and satisfying. We want to be a community that is embodying what is flourishing and whole.” - Christine Lee We kicked off a three-year trek through the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) in a series we're calling "Kingdom Manifesto." This month, we introduced the journey, and framed out what these chapters are and why they matter today.

  8. 19/12/2023

    December 2023 - Advent

    "God can only love perfectly. God can only love purely."  At our final Celebration gathering of 2023, Renaissance stopped to worship and remember the season of advent. We heard from four members of our network as they shared on the four themes of advent - hope, peace, joy, and love.
