  • The State of the Church 2025
    Nov 17 2025

    The church is more than a building or weekly gathering—it's a living community where every believer plays a vital role. Using Paul's metaphor of the body, we see that just as each body part is essential, every church member has unique gifts that contribute to the whole. No one is insignificant, and everyone is interdependent. True church membership means moving beyond attendance to active participation, supporting ministries, and serving the community. When we embrace our role as part of the body of Christ, we strengthen the entire church and become more effective in serving God's purposes in the world.

  • When What We See Isn't What We Get
    Nov 10 2025

    The book of Haggai addresses the Hebrew people who returned from exile expecting to rebuild their glorious temple, only to find their efforts looking small and disappointing compared to the past. God reminds them that His presence precedes His project - they don't work to earn God's presence, but work because He is already with them. The mess they see is part of God's method of transformation, like construction scaffolding that signals progress rather than failure. Resurrection logic calls us to live by God's promises rather than current appearances, participating actively in His long-term construction project even when we can't see the full picture.

  • All Saint's Day 2025
    Nov 3 2025

    All Saints Day celebrates the living love of God that transcends death, honoring both those who have passed and the living saints around us. Through the story of Lazarus, we see that Jesus meets us in our pain and calls us out of our own graves of despair, wounds, and broken relationships. This holy day reminds us that faith doesn't end at the grave but walks right through it. We're called to remove our grave clothes of fear and hopelessness, recognizing the saints who have influenced our spiritual journeys. The best way to honor the saints is to become living saints ourselves, carrying forward their light through acts of kindness, peace, and generosity.
