Bothell Amplified

This week, Pastor Joe preaches from James 1:17-27 as we wrestle with what it means to follow a Good God and how we might live to embody that!

This week, Pastor Joe concludes our 7-week series journeying through Ephesians remind us that we are not called to be the saviors of the world, but rather to resist the systems that produce and legitimize rulers and the authorities who put power over people so that we can notice the workings of the Holy Spirit that unites us into Beloved Community. 

This week, Pastor Joe continues our journey through Ephesians. Drawing from the context of Ephesians and the movement of the Holy Spirit that unites, Pastor Joe challenges us to live as wise people, knowing the same Holy Spirit that was at work in Ephesus two-thousand years ago is still at work now, uniting us as a people daring to dream of a better world!

This week, we welcome our Pastoral Intern, Brian Fu, to continue our journey through Ephesians. He challenges us to posture ourselves in a way of forgiveness and love so that we might all experience the unity of the Spirit.

This week, Pastor Joe continues our journey through Ephesians by challenging us to live with gentleness and humility as we move towards Unity through the Spirit.

This week, Pastor Joe continues our series through Ephesians by looking to this four-part prayer that the author lifts up for the community. 

This week, we continue on in our journey through Ephesians as we turn to the author's declaration that Christ is our Peace. Together, we wonder how we might go against the empires of today and live into God's preferred future, breaking down the walls that divide us and choosing to accept a "permanent, positive peace". 

This week, we launched a 7-week series journeying through Ephesians under the theme, No Longer Strangers. Pastor Joe began the series looking at how God's belovedness includes all. Rather than allowing our faith and convictions to feel better than the other, perhaps the blessings God promises should inspire us to action in the midst of a broken world!

This week, we welcome the Methodist New Year and celebrate Pastor Joe and Pastor Kristin as they begin another year appointed at Bothell United Methodist Church! Pastor Joe preaches this sermon from Ezekiel 2:1-5 challenging us and inviting us to engage in a posture of humility as we listen for the ways God is speaking...
