“Moving Out of Scare City”
Worship Series

October 9 - November 13, 2022

The sense that there is not enough drives greed, fear, and exclusionary behavior. We begin to live in “Scare City” where it seems that death, starvation, feelings of being overwhelmed and swallowed up can lurk around every corner.

The Good News is that this is an illusion. A spiritual journey into the truth of abundance of all that we need offers us an alternative vision of where to live our lives. During this series, we will be “Moving Out of Scare City” and traveling to the vast, open habitats of God’s grace.

“The Prayer of Jesus”
Worship Series

August 7 - September 4 (10:30 a.m. worship)

Join us as we spend 5 weeks focusing on the Lord’s Prayer. Worship each week hones in on a part of the prayer and draws us into examination and implementation of it in a relational way.

“Drawn In” Worship Series

June 12 - July 17, 2022

We spend too much time being “driven” rather than “drawn in.” We focus on what we should do rather than what we feel excited and compelled to do in our lives in this world.

During this series, we will connect with our inherent creativity and nurture this foundational aspect of being human that gives us renewed energy for passionate work, delightful play, and creative problem solving to make this world a better place for all.

“Good Enough” Worship Series

Lent - Easter 2022

We live in a culture bent on definitions of a good life as continuous upward mobility. We may comb the shelves of the self-help section in search of just the right formula to gain success. But life happens, right? Most times we are not moving upward but trying to repair the rung from which we’ve just slipped. So what if we stopped climbing and started fertilizing, water, and blooming right where we find ourselves? Welcome to a Lent of affirming a faith in which we are blessed, regardless of our imperfections, and where we can lean into embracing our “good enough” lives.

“The Inn: Housing the Holy”

Advent and Christmas 2021

The pandemic, along with so many other disasters this year, has laid bare and widened economic disparity locally and globally. As we enter the Advent season, how can our church become a house where the Holy will be born anew–offering respite, sustenance and care, opening the doors ever wider to those seeking shelter from the onslaught of life? No one church can do it all, but each can do something. As we study the biblical prophets that call us to care for our neighbors and “make room in the inn,” the lonely and frightened spaces within us are filled with the light of Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love.
