To our transgender siblings: your life is not a theological riddle for the world to solve.

Your journey, your joy, and your very survival are not an embarrassment to the Divine. They are holy.

Even if you have felt the sting of being cast out by religious institutions, know that being rejected by a system is not the same thing as being rejected by God.

You are seen, you are believed, and you are embraced fully just as you are.

Faith is more about listening to lived experiences than solving a puzzle.

When you look at the people around you, are you searching for a point to prove or a sacred story to witness?

Save this if you need the reminder that God isn't waiting for you to be a finished product to be present with you.

Living as your authentic self isn't just a relief, it is a holy act of restoration.

How have you seen the divine through the beauty of your own transition or change? God’s works are truly seen when you finally feel at home in your own skin.

We celebrated Pride Month with the conviction that every gender identity and sexual orientation is fearfully made in the image of the divine.

Esther Loewen joined us to share how the story of the man born blind in John 9 rhymes with the trans experience, reminding us that our bodies and our testimonies are holy.

If God is doing something sacred through the lives of our trans siblings, are we willing to see it?

Save this to remember the beauty we found together this weekend.

This week, we conclude our Pride Series 2026 with Christian Barrera-Sandri as our guest speaker!

This Saturday, Jun 27, Christian will be preaching on Pride and Penitence: Healing the Community, Not the Body.

As we enter Pride and celebrate the beauty of our q***r bodies, we are called to look honestly at those in our community, and a community onto their own, who are too often forgotten; our disabled and chronically ill siblings.

We reflect on the penitent sufferer of Psalm 38, and to the Jesus who refuses to abandon those whom society pushes to the margins. To mirror his actions as he did where disabled people are not prayed away, pitied, or hidden — but centered, honored, and held as indispensable.

This week’s sermon challenges ableist readings of Jesus’s mission as found throughout the Gospels.
Jesus did not just come to “fix” bodies.
Jesus came to restore community.

We hope to see you there!

For a long time, people have used the 'works of God' as a reason to exclude or change others. This week, Esther Loewen explores a different perspective on what it means for the Divine to be revealed through our lives as we continue our Pride sermon series. We are diving into John 9 to see how light actually works.

Join us this Saturday at 10:00 am, 9:15 am for ParaTots, Paradox Kids, and Paradox Youth.

Finding a community that refuses to settle for easy answers and stays rooted in justice is rare. Jeff Bullington shares why Paradox is a place worth staying connected to, even from miles away. Community is more than just a place you go. It's how we learn to love and be loved.

We often carry a silent pressure to be further along in our healing than we actually are. If you’re feeling the weight of the messy middle today, know that taking your time isn't a failure of faith.

What would change if you offered yourself the same mercy you give to everyone else?
