We get to what is perhaps the most famous section in the book of Esther. We learn that God works in the world in through all kinds of people, and he has perhaps placed you were you are "for such a time as this". 

Rand Habegger takes us through week 2 of our Esther series. This week we are introduced to Haman. Haman, because of his dislike of Mordecai, puts into motion a plan to eradicate all of the Jewish people. Where is God in such moments of pain? 

Today we start the book of Esther. An amazing story that introduces us to the idea that God moves even when it seems like he's not. We are introduced to some of our main characters today; King Xerxes, Mordecai, and Esther. In today's sermon we find out something about God, and we see something that God is doing with the book of Esther. 

This Easter Sunday we take some time to look at Jesus and Peter's relationship after the resurrection. We watch how shame interacts with Peter's story, and how Jesus interacts with Peter. 

We wrap up our Beloved Community Values series by looking at what it means to be led by the Spirit. We take time and look at four metaphors used in the New Testament to help us understand what our relationship as Christians should be with the Holy Spirit. 

We spend some time looking at what Jesus meant when he told the Pharisees that he thinks they had neglected "Justice" and "Mercy". Then we apply Jesus' words to our current context. The Beloved Community is a community that does justice and shows mercy.
