As Rev. Jes Kast te...

This week I sat down with my dear friend, Val Hystek, to talk about a tender, beautiful topic: grief. Val has experienced her fair share of grief, but it took her a long time to be willing to wrestle with it. In an Instagram post she wrote, “Grief forced my faith to shift. Eventually. When I finally believed I have what it takes to sit with grief and survive.”
Val came to believe in a God who loves us for all of who we are: who doe...

Recently, Kelsey had the opportunity to preach at First Congregational Church of Bellingham and when the Pastor told her what the scripture would be, she almost backed out.
It was the story of Passover (Exodus 12 and 13), when Moses leads his people out of slavery into freedom. It's a powerful, poignant story, but it also includes the gruesome and troubling 10th plague to hit Egypt: the killing of all the first-born c...

“All of us are God’s images on earth - we are to be God’s representatives of power.”
