Liberation is more than an exit from empire; it's a discovery of who we truly are. This fall, eight weeks in Exodus and Deuteronomy trace a people marked, tested, and given a new way to live, all the way to the edge of a promise they wouldn't personally see. We are not merely freed from slavery to sin and death; we are freed for a new purpose, a new people, formed by our liberating God. From Bo***ge to Belonging.

A Meditation on Psalm 149

Psalm 149 invites us to sing a new song—to praise God with joy, gratitude, and our whole hearts.

Even when the world feels complicated, we are reminded that God takes pleasure in God’s people and calls us to cultivate a song of praise within us.

Take a moment with this meditation and make room for a new song of gratitude, joy, and hope.

Sermon Recap | Aug. 30th | Rev. Kevin Baker
“Get behind me.”

Jesus’ words to Peter weren’t just a correction—they were an invitation to change his posture and follow.

Sometimes faithful discipleship means getting out of the way, letting Jesus lead us into paths that may be challenging, uncomfortable, or unfamiliar.

Following Jesus isn’t about never getting it wrong. It’s about being willing to turn, follow, and keep moving forward.

Happy Homecoming to all! It was a beautiful day of fellowship and fun as we welcomed friends old and new. Thanks to all ...

A Meditation on Discipleship

Following Jesus is more than remembering the story—it is choosing to walk the same path of love, sacrifice, and service.

Discipleship calls us to take up our cross, let go of ourselves, and follow where Jesus leads.

Take a moment with this meditation and reflect on what it means to live as a disciple of Christ today.
