Bothell Amplified

This week, we launch a short two-week series on Calling. Looking at some of the disciples' first encounters with Jesus, we see how Christ might be calling us to live into our purpose of Becoming Christ in the Community. This week, we see how Jesus invites us to be Called with others in love, drawing from Luke 5:1-11. 

This week, we welcome Dawn Stueckle, co-founder and Executive Director of Sunset Youth Services (sunsetyouthservices.org), who preaches from Matthew 26:36-46 and Micah 6:8. Dawn challenges us to journey through the process of awakening! 

This week, we celebrate and recognize Earth Day and hear the call to be reconciled with God, with one another and with creation! Scripture - 2 Corinthians 5:16-21

This week, celebrate Easter and turn to Mark's version in chapter 16. We look at why the man dressed in white told Jesus' followers to go to Galilee and why the women were initially afraid. How might resurrection inspire us to change the ways we see the world? 

This week, we turn to John 12:1-19, as we see Jesus enter into Jerusalem. But while Rome prepares for the threat of violence and war in their march to Jerusalem, Jesus dines with Lazarus before getting on a donkey and making his way to Jerusalem. What new way might Jesus be inviting us into? 

This week, Pastor Kristin Joyner (Pastor for Community Engagement) preaches from John 12:20-33 continuing our Lent sermon series, Again and Again. In this sermon, she navigates the different between change and reformation, and invites us to think about what needs to fall in order for new life to flourish! 

This week, we continue our Lent series, Again and Again, following the curriculum from A Sanctified Art. Drawing from John 3:1-21, we meet Nicodemus, who went to see Jesus in the middle of the night. How does Jesus challenge him to change his values and understanding of the world? And how might we change our values to align with God's preferred future for the world? 

This week, we continue our Lent series, Again and Again, following the curriculum from A Sanctified Art. Drawing from John 2:13-22, we look at Jesus in the Temple. What caused him to take the actions he did? How are we being called to follow his example? 

This week, we continue our Lent series, Again and Again, following the curriculum from A Sanctified Art. Drawing from Mark 8:27-38, we look how our own understandings of Messiah might limit us in seeing the fullness of God and the invitation into God's community. Perhaps denying ourselves might mean to deny our desire to remain by ourselves, resisting the call into community. 

Today, we launch our Lent series, Again and Again, following the curriculum from A Sanctified Art. Drawing from Mark 1:9-15, we look at the greatest temptation according to the author: to think that God is not present.
