As we head to the polls in the United States, Pastor Jacob's sermon is a reminder that the work of the church will not change come Wednesday morning regardless of the results. We will still be called to stand up for our LGBTQIA+ siblings, to dismantle racism and the patriarchy, and to strive to love all people equally.

As Election 2024 approaches, our special two-week sermon series reminds us that we are called to something greater: something greater than our political parties, something greater than the boundaries of our country, something greater than our single church. The Kingdom of God transcends any one election year or political leader and calls us to be part of God’s ongoing work in the world.

Our annual Animal Blessing Sunday! Pastor Jacob explores the language we use during times of war when people are described as dogs or animals in an attempt to dehumanize them. Why did this language ever become an insult? What does it have to say about how humans consider themselves as more important than other species?

The Bible is full of prophets beyond just the ones with books named after them. In the book of 1 Kings we meet a prophet named Micaiah who is willing to share a hard truth with King Ahab of Israel, even though 400 other people are telling the king exactly what he wants to hear. Join Pastor Jacob as he invites us to step out of our echo chambers and listen for a God who is calling us into a deeper and more compassionate faith.

This Sunday we launch a new sermon series taking a look at the hidden figures of Scripture! In the 31,102 verses of Scripture there are characters that get only a passing reference and are quickly forgotten. Take Bezalel and Oholiab for example! They are only mentioned in Exodus 31 but these two men with hard to pronounce names are called by God for a specific purpose, and perhaps God is calling us too.

The story of the Isrealites crossing the Red Sea in their escape from Egypt becomes the central story of the Hebrew people. Join Pastor Jacob as he explores why the crossing is about so much more than Moses vs. Pharaoh or Israel vs. Egypt, and why it tells a story that the forces of oppression in this world will never prevail.
