Making The Invisible God Visible (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There are so many voices in our culture trying to define what it means to be a Christian. Stereotypes, reductionism, and legalism can make us feel like we don't belong. Pastor Chris reminds us today that Jesus is the one who defines what it means to be a Christian, and that our primary goal is to make the invisible God visible to those we interact with every day.
The Miracle of Imagination (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if imagination is one of the ways we practice hope? Continuing our Ordinary Glory series, Ericka Graham explores Ezekiel’s vision of the valley of dry bones and the invitation to see the world honestly while still imagining what God might make possible. Even in exile, grief, and circumstances that seemed beyond repair, God invited Ezekiel not only to hope for new life, but to participate in bringing it about.
Learning To See (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In a world that is constantly distracting us, we aim to be a people who pay attention. Pastor Chris invites us to see ourselves and others through attentiveness in the practice of presence.
Losing Our Life To Find Our Life (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if some of the things we’re trying hardest to hold onto are actually keeping us from experiencing new life? Continuing our Ordinary Glory series, Ericka Graham explores Jesus’ invitation to lose our lives in order to find them. Through the paradox of crucifixion and resurrection, she considers our desire for control, the rules and expectations we create for ourselves, and the difficult work of surrendering what no longer leads to life.
The Gospel According to Dolly Parton (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We want to be a people who follow Jesus the way Dolly Parton did. Pastor Chris guides us through the way Dolly Parton lived a life of faith and implores us to follow in her example in how she loved and included all people.
