  • Wonder - Week 7 | Seek

    Wonder - Week 7 | Seek
    Feb 15 2026
    When family fractures, public pressure, or the simple weight of life make you want to hide, David’s cry in Psalm 27 cuts straight to the heart: one thing I will seek — the face, the beauty, the favor of God. This sermon holds that raw tension—fear, enemies, even abandonment by those closest to us—and refuses to reduce faith to information or technique. It lays out why the longing for God’s beauty matters when everything else is failing. You’ll hear how ancient temple images, the year-after-year sacrifices, and the surprising beauty of the suffering Lamb reframe courage: seeing God’s character steadies us amid danger. The talk traces how beholding God’s mercy changes how we live and tells the modern story of a failed fresco that became a town’s blessing—small, messy acts that reveal God’s face. Expect a clear, tender invitation to let that beauty lift your head and reorder what you fear.

  • Wonder - Week 6 | Humility

    Wonder - Week 6 | Humility
    Feb 8 2026
    When life feels like a nonstop audition — proving you belong, worth, and meaning — exhaustion follows. The pressure to demand justice, score moral victories, or carve out a self-serving freedom leaves people constantly judged: by algorithms, neighbors, and the voice in their own head. That grind flattens wonder and leaves faith feeling like an empty courtroom. Here the ancient prophet Micah cuts through the noise with three simple practices: do justice, love mercy, walk humbly with God. The message shows how God doesn’t leave us to perform but provides a substitute so justice and mercy can meet; mercy becomes the air we breathe, humility the clear-eyed posture that frees us to love others. Far from a checklist, these rhythms are learned in community and lived by receiving more than we can earn — a surprising way back to awe and belonging that might change how you see everything.

  • Wonder - Week 5 | Awe

    Wonder - Week 5 | Awe
    Feb 1 2026
    When your days feel reduced to tasks, notifications, and metrics—when people are treated like data and meaning slips through your fingers—life starts to look like smoke. This sermon addresses that specific ache: the numbness that comes from living in an I-It world where wonder has been crowded out by speed, consumption, and a hardening of the heart. The message reclaims an old phrase often translated "fear of the Lord" and restores it as awe: a posture of reverent wonder that opens you to God, others, and the small miracles all around you. Drawing on Proverbs, Jesus’ encounters, and everyday examples, it shows awe as something received, not manufactured—a living water that reshapes how we see and relate. Expect gentle reproof, surprising invitation, and an encouragement to stop trying to fix everything so you can start beholding again. See what it looks like when awe returns to the center of life.
