    Lectionary: Matthew 10:34-42 - The Cost of Following Jesus - June 28, 2026

    This Sunday's sermon explored Matthew 10:34-42, where Jesus prepares his disciples for the real costs of following him—including strained relationships, sacrifice, and even laying down one's life. Pastor Mike reminded us that while saying yes to Jesus requires counting the cost, the life of faith isn't only about grand gestures; it's also built through small, everyday acts of grace like offering a cup of cold water, writing a note, or simply being present with others. The invitation for all of us is to live with open hands, freely giving and receiving, trusting that whatever we surrender to God, he promises to restore and multiply in ways beyond what we can imagine.

    Lectionary: Have No Fear - June 21, 2026

    This week's sermon explored Matthew 10, where Jesus honestly prepares His disciples for the challenges of following Him—from persecution to being called before authorities—while also commanding them three times to "fear not." Pastor Mary reminded us that we can live without fear because Jesus Himself sends us, promises His Spirit will speak through us, and values us more than we can imagine. As we face our own challenging situations at work, home, or in our neighborhoods, we're invited to trust that we're on Jesus' team, He has our backs, and the victory celebration at the end will be greater than anything we can imagine.

    Lectionary: The Harvest is Plentiful, the Laborers Few - June 14, 2026

    Pastor Mike explored Matthew 9:35-10:15 alongside Romans 5, reminding us that Jesus sees our deepest needs with compassion and calls ordinary people—not because of their gifts, but simply because He chooses them—to share in His work of bringing hope and healing to others. The good news is that we don't have to muster up our own strength or prove ourselves worthy; Jesus gives us His authority and sends us out with open hands to freely offer the same grace we've freely received. As we go into our neighborhoods, workplaces, and families this week, may we remember that it's all grace—and that God is shaping us into people who reflect His generous, compassionate heart to a world that desperately needs it.

    Lectionary: Matthew 9 - June 7, 2026

    In this sermon on Matthew 9, we are reminded that Jesus saw Matthew the tax collector—a man everyone else had written off—and offered him a simple, life-changing invitation: "Follow me." Just as Jesus lingered at Matthew's table without waiting for him to clean up his life first, He extends that same unhurried, personal invitation to each of us today, especially those who feel overlooked, overwhelmed, or too messy to matter. The call for us is to slow down, to truly see the people around us, and to invite both Jesus and others into the real, imperfect spaces of our lives.

    Trinity Sunday - May 31, 2026

    This Sunday, Pastor Mike walked us through Genesis 1, inviting us to see the creation story as an introduction to who God is and how he works. We discovered that God creates, speaks, sees, names, blesses, gives, delights, and rests—and that we, made in his image, are invited to reflect these same rhythms in our own lives. As we head into a new week, may we remember that our value comes not from our productivity, but from being lovingly created by a God who delights in us.

    Pentecost - May 24, 2026

    Drawing from Acts 2 and 1 Corinthians 12, Pastor Matt reminded us on this Pentecost Sunday that every believer receives the same full measure of the Holy Spirit—there are no "levels" of the Spirit based on which gifts we have. The gifts of the Spirit may look different in each of us, but they all come from the same God and are given for the common good, not for comparison or competition. Our calling is simply to yield and surrender to the Spirit's work in our lives, trusting that whatever gift we've been given is good because God is good.

    Rev. Hannah King - Ascension Sunday 2026

    This sermon by Rev. Hannah King, drawing from the Last Supper accounts and Jesus' ascension in Acts 1, reminds us that the Eucharist is an invitation into deep communion with a God who doesn't just offer us forgiveness, but gives us Himself—His very life to nourish and transform us. As we gather at the Lord's Table, we hold together both the real presence of Christ who sustains us and the honest ache of His absence, giving us permission to name what is still broken while we await His return. Whether you come hungry for a reminder of God's self-giving love, seeking strength for the journey, or longing for the day when all things will be made new, this sacred meal assures us that the greatest gift God has to give is Himself—and He withholds nothing.

    Lectionary: 1 Peter - Sunday, May 10 2026

    Drawing from 1 Peter 3:8-18 and Psalm 34, this Pastor Mike's sermon reminded us that the truly good life isn't found in wealth or ease, but in walking God's way—living with humility, compassion, tender hearts, and unity toward one another. While this kind of countercultural living won't always lead to worldly success, and suffering will still come, Peter assures us that a life rooted in Christ is still the best life because it's a life with God, where even our hardships have purpose and can draw us closer to Him. We're invited to let one another into our struggles, to walk together with gentleness and grace, and to let our love for God and each other be a witness to a world that desperately needs it.
