It’s official! Pastor Steph has been reappointed to Glendale for another year! We’re thankful for her leadership and ready to keep choosing courage over comfort, justice over indifference, and community over division.

Glendale is well represented at the 2026 TWK UMC Annual Conference this week in Murfreesboro! We’re grateful to be part of a denomination that continues to choose compassion, justice, inclusion, and hope. Even amid the challenges facing our communities, we’re reminded that another way is possible when people choose love over fear and service over self-interest. Bishop Graves even joined us for the photo!

We welcomed The Dodge Family officially into our Glendale Fam today! (Of no relation to Pastor Steph. 😂)

“Attending Glendale has been a blessing and a relief, knowing that the community here is made up of people who truly want to make earth more like heaven. After we both became increasingly frustrated with things that we saw people justifying in the name of Christianity, Tim was ready to give up on church entirely, but decided to give Glendale a shot when Emily casually mentioned that we had a Dungeons & Dragons group. We are both thankful to find an accepting community truly rooted in love.” - Tim & Emily

We can't stop people from saying or doing stupid things, but we can choose to continue loving people until they learn to love themselves and eventually love others. We hope that you will join us in spreading love and joy this Pride month and always.

It’s a bird….it’s a plane…its Superman!” That iconic line came to mind this week as I was contemplating the Trinity—it’s Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; Creator, Christ, and Holy Ghost; Papa, Jesus, and Sarayu; Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer. Whichever names you use, it has never quite cleared up exactly how our relational God exists as three but one. As they say, “the math ain’t mathing.” Rather than explain it, the Bible tells us stories from which we have to make our own meaning. Today we will share some of those stories and you can reflect yourself on what it means to worship a trinitarian God.

On this Memorial Day, we pause to remember and give thanks for the lives of those who died in military service.

We pray for a world shaped by peace, justice, and compassion for all people everywhere.

On this Pentecost Sunday, may we be a church that is disrupted by the power of the Spirit so we may use our gifts to bring about a more just world.
