Bothell Amplified

This week, we launch a quick two-week series on what it means for us to Become Anti-Ableist in the Community. Pastor Joe kicks us off by preaching from Psalm 9:9-20 on how our hope is in God who cares for those our systems and institutions keep out and how we can be allies in this on-going work toward inclusion and accessibility!

This week, we wrap up our three-week series on 1 Samuel as Pastor Kristin, Pastor of Community Engagement, shares with us that God does not follow the ways of the world, but instead calls each of us in our own way!

This week, we continue to follow the story of the Israelites in 1 Samuel 8:4-20 as they call for a King. Pastor Joe explores why they might have wanted a king over God and how God chooses to be present with us in all our journey!

This week, we turn to the story of Samuel and how God calls him in the middle of the night. Pastor Joe explores the different ways Samuel responds and asks how we might respond to God's call for us today.

This Sunday, we celebrated Trinity Sunday! Preaching from John 3:1-21, Pastor Joe challenges us to move from certainty to mystery by changing the ways we experience the world! 

This Sunday, we celebrated Pentecost and spent time with our Pastoral Intern, Jancy Schrader, on her last Sunday with us. Sharing from Acts 2:1-21, Jancy and Pastor Joe discuss their noticing and wonderings, and how we can continue to be led by the guidance of the Holy Spirit!

This Sunday, we turn to Acts 1:1-11 and explore the moment when Jesus ascends to Heaven and how the disciples respond! 

This week, we turn to Acts 10:44-48 as we explore the Limitlessness of God. Having just returned from the United Methodist Church's General Conference, Pastor Joe shares some of his reflections and ways we can continue to build a world of inclusion and belonging! 

This week, Rev. Ben Hartley joins us at Bothell. Rev. Hartley preaches from Acts 8:26-40 and connects the story of how Philip the Apostle's journey (or roadtrip) and his conversations with the Ethiopian eunuch on way to Samaria has an impacts on the world today. 

Join Pastor Joe for our Earth Day 2024 sermon! Connect with us as we reflect, drawing from Jeremiah 4:11-12, 19-28, on how we can be better stewards of God's good creation!
