By Grace…

Silence. Solitude. Jesus needed it. And so do we. In a world that is noisy and hunting for our attention, what could the value of silence be for our lives, for our direction, and for our relationship with the God whom we meet there?

Waiting in Faith
If this pandemic has taught us anything, it's that we need to learn to wait: for a cure, through a quarantine, for nice weather, for things to 'back to normal'. In our waiting, we can be discouraged and distraught...or we can learn to wait in faith - with patience and with hope. We can learn how to do that from the story of Joseph.

Sermons
On Planks and Judgments
In today's message, we explore the last barrier that keeps people away from following Jesus: our own judgmentalism. It was actually something that Jesus could see coming from miles away - and he warned us about. Too bad we tend not to listen! Let's start listening today.
