    Explore God: Part 7 - Can I know God personally?

    In the final message of our Explore God series, Pastor Angelo explores one last deeply personal question: Can I know God personally? Grounded in John 15:9–17, this sermon examines Jesus’ invitation to “remain” in his love and challenges common misconceptions about faith, spirituality, and relationship with God. Together, we consider what it means to be fully known and fully loved by God—and how abiding in the love of Christ can transform the way we live, love, and see ourselves.

    Companions Season 3: Episode 22 - Emma and Ezekiel

    This week on Companions, Pastor Angelo is joined by Wesley Memorial’s summer pastoral intern, Emma Strickland, for a special episode. Before diving into the strange and powerful world of Ezekiel 1–24, Emma shares about her life, faith journey, calling to ministry, and passion for social work. Together, they reflect on what it feels like to read prophetic literature honestly for the first time—the confusion, the beauty, the discomfort, and the surprising relevance of Ezekiel’s visions and warnings. Whether you’ve loved the prophets or struggled through them, this episode is an honest and thoughtful reminder that scripture often forms us not just through clarity, but through wrestling, curiosity, and conversation.

    Explore God: Part 5 - Is Jesus really God?

    What does it really mean to say that Jesus is God? This week, Pastor Becca explores Colossians 1:15–20 and the church’s historic claim that Jesus is both fully divine and fully human. Together, we wrestle with Scripture, tradition, reason, and experience as we consider who Jesus truly is—and why that still matters today.
