  1. 1D AGO

    Palm Sunday

    Palm Sunday doesn’t just tell us what happened to Jesus. It tells us the truth about ourselves. And yet—thank God—it doesn’t stop there. The service doesn’t just reveal our complicity in the world’s brokenness. It shows how far God will go to meet us in it.

  6. MAR 9

    What Kind of Messiah

    Our faith will be tested. We’ll feel the pull to hoard, to control, to chase comfort at any cost. And if we’re honest, we won’t always resist.

    Transfiguration

    “We do not serve an aloof God—or one who merely knows our pain. We follow a compassionate Lord who stepped into our deepest grief—and can be trusted to undo it…”
