    The Rev. Scott Walters: Showing Up Together
    Nov 16 2025
    We just keep showing up together in the present with the lives we actually have. And maybe find that the risen Christ does keep showing up among us, not in the ways we planned for. But with a new word, a new wisdom for a new day that we were never meant to anticipate.

    The Rev. Katherine Bush: Living Whole in a Broken World
    Nov 9 2025
    Because this life is where we are now, and wouldn’t it be extraordinary if we could flip the script around, so that instead of projecting qualities of this broken world onto the next, we could instead take the hints we get about the wholeness that awaits us and get about the business of living that way now and here?

  • The Rev. Scott Walters: All Saints Sunday

    The Rev. Scott Walters: All Saints Sunday
    Nov 2 2025
    Maybe All Saints’ Day is the day we’re reminded that the Church isn’t the place where we get free of enemies Jesus asks us to love. It’s where he traps us with some of the most obnoxious ones and says, “Here we are, folks. Shall we get on with it?”

  • The Rev. Scott Walters: Faith and Blessings

    The Rev. Scott Walters: Faith and Blessings
    Oct 19 2025
    And yet a door to another world still stands open to every moment. A door to a better way. Which is to see your life, not as an achievement of your savvy and your will, but as a gift. A gift from a loving God who doesn’t trick us into faithfulness or force us into submission, because that’s not love. A gift from the God who woos us with blessings that are given in spite of our selfish shrewdness, not as rewards. Blessings given simply because it is the nature of love to bless. A door stands open. But you won’t be tricked or shoved through it. Because it’s open to life in the realm of gift and love. It will still cost you everything you’ve tricked this world out of thus far. But could you send all of that to the far side of the river, and limp through the door into another way of being alive?

  • The Rev. Katherine Bush: Seeking Welfare

    The Rev. Katherine Bush: Seeking Welfare
    Oct 12 2025
    And so this little moment of counsel from twenty-five-some-odd centuries ago helps me learn how to do that. What to do when I find myself waking up in a strange place that I don’t recognize and can only mutter: I don’t understand this world, I don’t want this, I don’t know what to do with all this. “Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat what they produce… Seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare.”
