ABOUT THIS SERVICE
What can characters like Lucifer, Dexter, and Rorschach teach the church about redemption?

Ezekiel 33 describes a God who calls people to turn, change, and live. This week we explore why our culture’s storytellers often seem more willing to imagine transformation for deeply flawed characters than the church has been for real people.

ABOUT THIS SERVICE
What is the church actually for?

In Matthew 16:13–20, Peter names Jesus as the Christ - and Jesus names Peter as the rock on which the church will be built. Rev. Melinda explores what this moment tells us about the church: a messy, holy community of ordinary people called to continue the work and teachings of Jesus through love, compassion, grace, and justice.

We are two congregations worshiping together for a season.

ABOUT THIS SERVICE
In Matthew 15:21–28, Jesus encounters a Canaanite woman who refuses to accept his dismissal of her and her suffering daughter. What happens next is one of the more challenging moments in the Gospels: Jesus listens. Jesus changes his mind. Jesus learns.

What might this difficult story teach us about Jesus—and about our own willingness to listen, reconsider what we think we know, and learn from people we might otherwise overlook?

ABOUT THIS SERVICE
We all know what it's like to feel pulled in too many directions. Work, family, friends, expectations - everyone seems to need something. Rev. Dan explores a unique angle from the story of Jesus walking on water: How do we care deeply about others without losing ourselves? It's a practical look at healthy relationships and how Jesus handled being in deep water.

ABOUT THIS SERVICE

In Matthew 14, Jesus is grieving and trying to find a quiet place, but the crowd follows him. Instead of turning them away, Jesus sees them, has compassion, and responds to their needs. Then, with five loaves and two fish, Jesus invites the disciples to participate in a miracle of abundance. This sermon explores compassion, generosity, faith, and what can happen when we place our small offerings in God’s hands.
