Episodes
The Fifth Sunday in Lent.
What happens when love goes beyond boundaries—beyond reason—and becomes scandalously beautiful? In this powerful and provocative reflection, we explore a moment of biblical PDA—a public display of devotion so intimate, so sensory, and so wild in love that it leaves the room breathless. Join Fr. Peter Walsh in unpacking Mary's radical act of love, the sensuality of spiritual intimacy, and what it means...
Maundy Thursday.
What could Saint Peter and Friedrich Nietzsche possibly have in common? In this powerful and thought-provoking Maundy Thursday sermon, The Rev. John Kennedy explores the deep scandal and radical love at the heart of Jesus’ shocking act of foot washing—and why it offended both Peter and Nietzsche in their own ways. With insight, wit, and piercing clarity, this message invites us to grapple with the meaning of humili...
On Good Friday, we’re confronted with a question that echoes through time: Which kingdom do we serve—the kingdom of domination or the kingdom of self-giving love?
In this powerful and moving sermon, The Rev. Elizabeth Garnsey draws us into the cosmic clash between Caesar and Christ, between force and truth, between the love of power and the power of love. As we stand at the foot of the cross, we are invited to wrestle with...
The Great Vigil of Easter.
If you've ever wrestled with doubt, darkness, or the limits of human possibility, this sermon will speak to you. Because sometimes, only the impossible will do. The Rev. John Kennedy takes us from the darkness of the cosmos to the impossible hope of the Resurrection with a cosmic, cultural, and deeply personal exploration of despair, death—and the miracle that changes everything.
Easter Day.
Explore how the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ shattered every human expectation — and how Jesus continues to pull us out of the boxes that confine us today. Full of energy, hope, and real-life connection, this sermon invites you to experience the risen Christ in a radically new way.
The Second Sunday of Easter.
The Rev. Elizabeth Garnsey explores the story of Thomas not as a tale of doubt, but of longing, honesty, and transformation. See how Jesus meets each of us in our rawest places — not with judgment, but with peace, forgiveness, and love. Watch to discover how the resurrection isn't just a past event, but an ongoing invitation to new life.
The Third Sunday of Easter.
In this powerful and heartfelt sermon, The Rev. John Kennedy reflects on the gospel that shaped his own priesthood and was chosen for Pope Francis’ funeral. Drawing moving parallels between the lives of Simon Peter and Pope Francis, he explores the true heart of discipleship: a deep love for Jesus, compassion for the marginalized, and the courage to give all for the sake of the gospel.
The Fourth Sunday in Lent. Discover the heart of God’s extravagant love. Through Jesus' greatest parable, we explore a love that is reckless, lavish, and transformative—a love that welcomes us home, no matter where we’ve been. Are we the wayward younger son or the resentful elder brother? Or is this story really about the boundless grace of God?
The Third Sunday in Lent. In the midst of disasters, how many times have we heard people say, "It's all part of God's plan" or ask, "Where was God?" What if God has nothing to do with the tragedies that occur? Learn how we can face the grief and death of this world and discover what God's plan for our lives really is.
The Second Sunday in Lent.
Explore the depth of Jesus' emotional resilience—his boldness and tenderness, his strength and sorrow. Facing opposition, death threats, and ultimate sacrifice, Jesus remains unwavering in his purpose. How can we imitate Christ’s emotional life in our own?

Ash Wednesday. What if, instead of focusing on the red flags in life, we turned our attention to the green ones—the signs of truth, love, and divine presence all around us? The Rev. Elizabeth Garnsey invites us to shift our perspective, tuning our hearts to the goodness of God rather than getting lost in fear, division, and distraction. Lent offers us the chance to reset, to return to a place of spiritual clarity, and to follow the...
The Seventh Sunday after the Epiphany. The Rev. John Kennedy challenges us to reconsider the nature of Christian love. Does Jesus teach us to prioritize those closest to us, or does he call us to something far greater? Explore the radical, universal love that Jesus commands—a love that extends even to our enemies. With compelling insight, Fr. John unpacks what it truly means to be children of the Most High, embracing a love that kn...
The Sixth Sunday after the Epiphany. Why do so many of our attempts at self-improvement and happiness fall short? Fr. John Kennedy explores the universal human longing for happiness and why, despite our relentless pursuit, it often remains elusive. Is happiness found in wealth, comfort, or success? Or does Jesus offer us a radically different path to joy and fulfillment?
