There is no human ideology or societal perspective that can stand up to the reality and truth of God's justice and righteousness. When that reality comes, it comes like a torrent and washes all away - it can be a frightening and transformative moment. Passage: Amos 5:18-24 We now have TWO in-person worship opportunities. Our Cafe Service meets at 9:00am on the Sanctuary Lawn, and our Traditional Service will meet at 10:30am in the Sanctuary.

Encounters with Water: "Let Justice Roll Down"

This week, our Director of Community Life, Evan Gratz discusses how we we all fall short of what God has for us, but it’s not about what we do, it’s about what God has already done for us.

Our Cafe Service meets at 9:00am on the Sanctuary Lawn, and our Traditional Service will meet at 10:30am in the Sanctuary.

Encounters with Water: "Water in Parched Land"

Droughts and floods are old and constant themes in scripture. Here's one version: God shows us a flood of Grace. We love God for it but then we forget our way into a drought. God calls us back to the water and floods us with Grace and Love again. This is a very natural, very human, ebb and flow and God loves us in it. We spend a lot of time in shame and guilt for the drought times but God wants to set us free from that. Passage: Jeremiah 2:1-13 Music clips used in sermon: "Driver's License" - Olivia Rodrigo                                              "Good 4U" - Olivia Rodrigo                                                            “Ironic” – Alanis Morissette                                                    “Respect” – Aretha Franklin                                                          “Lord I Need You” (Instrumental) – Matt Maher We now have TWO in-person worship opportunities.

Encounters with Water: "Ebb and Flow"

Encounters with Water: "Water Out Of Control"

Water is an integral part of our origin story and it is either depicted in both chaos and in flow.

Our Cafe Service meets at 9:00am on the Sanctuary Lawn, and our Traditional Service will meet at 10:30am in the Sanctuary.

Divine Dance: "Trinity Changes the World"

Viewing the Trinity as a circle or as a dance makes our invitation to the table carry a lot more weight. What does it mean to part of the dance instead of an outside observer? Passage: 1 John 4:7-16 We now have TWO in-person worship opportunities. Our Cafe Service meets at 9:00am on the Sanctuary Lawn, and our Traditional Service will meet at 10:30am in the Sanctuary.

Divine Dance: "Space at the Table"

The shape of a triangle emphasizes its points. In the same way, when we envision the Trinity in such a shape we tend to focus on the substance of three persons instead of the connection between. The impact of that small change in perspective is astounding. Passage: John 10:30-38 We now have TWO in-person worship opportunities. Our Cafe Service meets at 9:00am on the Sanctuary Lawn, and our Traditional Service will meet at 10:30am in the Sanctuary.

Divine Dance: "The Flow Between"

As Christians we take the Trinity for granted as a cornerstone of our faith. But how we imagine the Trinity to operate influences our theology and how we view the world. What if our theology is bad? Passage: Genesis 18:1-9 We now have TWO in-person worship opportunities. Our Cafe Service meets at 9:00am on the Sanctuary Lawn, and our Traditional Service will meet at 10:30am in the Sanctuary.

Divine Dance: "Who Is the Trinity?"

It took an in-breaking of the Holy Spirit, in wind, flame and wild languages to gather a crowd on this Pentecost in Acts. What will it take to gather us this Pentecost? After an eternity of fearing and avoiding each other (and our germs) in this pandemic, what new perspectives do we have on what it means to gather? What do we care about enough to work up the courage to gather together about? What is God calling us to gather over now after so much isolation? Passage: Acts 2:1-21 We now have TWO in-person worship opportunities. Our Cafe Service meets at 9:00am on the Sanctuary Lawn, and our Traditional Service will meet at 10:30am in the Sanctuary.
