Throwback Thursday - This photo was taken during First Christian Church's 125th Anniversary celebration in 2008. Pictured are three generations of pastors who have had the privilege of serving this congregation: Wendel Pew, Tom Shifflet, and current pastor, Jesse Kearns.

We often celebrate buildings and milestones, but the real story of the church is the people who have worshiped, served, loved, and shared God's grace across the generations. We're grateful for those who came before us and excited for the chapters still to be written.

Word Wednesday - The word for this week is "Hospitality." Hospitality is more than entertaining guests. In scripture, hospitality is making room—for strangers, for neighbors, for grace, and sometimes for God. Who needs a little room in your heart, your schedule, or your life this week?

Transformation Tuesday - In a story from Genesis 18, Abraham's wife, Sarah, laughed when she heard the promise that she'd bear a child long past her time to do so. Can you blame her? Sometimes transformation begins not with certainty, but with a reluctant hope that maybe—just maybe—God is not finished writing the story.

Where might God be inviting you to imagine new possibilities?

Meaningful Monday - Yesterday, we reflected on the creation story and the God who speaks life into being. The same God who said, "Let there be light" still speaks today—calling goodness, hope, and possibility into our lives.

Photo: Summer camp gathering at Lake Alpine, California, 1935

This week's Throwback Thursday takes us back to a summer camp gathering at beautiful Lake Alpine in 1935.

For generations, people of faith have found renewal in God's creation—gathering among towering trees, sparkling waters, and mountain air to worship, learn, rest, and build community. As we reflect on the creation story in Genesis this week, we're reminded that God's world is a gift meant to be enjoyed, cherished, and shared.

What are some of your favorite memories of church camps, retreats, or time spent in nature?

Word Wednesday -
Genesis 1:31 (NRSV)

"God saw everything that he had made, and indeed, it was very good."

Reflection:
Before there was success or failure, before anyone earned anything or accomplished anything, God looked at creation and called it very good. This week, consider how God's declaration of goodness might shape the way you see yourself, your neighbors, and the world around you.

Question:
What is a place in nature where you feel especially close to God?

Reflection:
Whether it's a mountain trail, a backyard garden, a quiet lake, or a favorite park, many of us experience God's presence through creation. Share a place that renews your spirit and reminds you of God's goodness.
