The Company Christ Keeps

Revelation 7:9-17

November 1, 2026

All Saints Sunday 2026

Rev. Teer Hardy

And All Saints’ does not ask us to pretend the losses do not hurt. It invites us to trust that the God who raised Jesus from the dead has not abandoned those we love to death.

We do not know everything about Heaven. John has given us a vision, not a floor plan.

But we know who is there.

Jesus Christ.

And if Christ is there, then Heaven is where the mercy of God finally accomplishes everything God has promised.

A Heart that Hurts

Romans 8:18-30

October 18, 2026

Rev. Teer Hardy

Death is an enemy that Jesus Christ has defeated, and God has promised the same redemption for us and every other part of creation.

Until that promise is fully revealed, we groan. Sometimes we laugh. Sometimes we sing. Sometimes all we can manage is to sit beside someone who is suffering without attempting to improve their mood.

Creation groans. We groan. The Spirit of God groans with us. And the last word belongs to the God who raised Jesus from the dead.

The Furniture Keeps Moving: Mixed Motives. Real Love.

1 Corinthians 13

October 11, 2026

Rev. Teer Hardy

Our love gets tired. Our patience runs out. We insist on our own way. We keep records of wrongdoings. But Jesus goes all the way to the cross.

He does not wait for humanity to develop better motives or for sinners to get their acts together.

Jesus gives himself for the people who misunderstand him, abandon him, deny him, mock him, and nail him to a cross.

“The greatest of these is love” is Good News because the love of God does not depend on our behavior.

Christ meets us where we are. Mixed motives and all.

Good News for Anxious Christians | You Don’t Have to Figure it Out

Matthew 6:25-34

October 4, 2026

Rev. Teer Hardy

Our hope was never that we would become good enough at finding God’s will.

Our hope is that God is very good at finding us. And in Jesus Christ, God already has.

Maybe It's the Ginger

Galatians 5

September 20, 2206

Rev. Teer Hardy

Maybe your gut is right. Maybe your gut is wrong. Maybe it is the ginger.

Paul’s question is better anyway.`

Where are you walking?

What kind of fruit is growing?

Does your life look a little more like Jesus than it did before?

Not perfectly. Not all at once.

But slowly, stubbornly, graciously.

Love. Joy. Peace. Patience. Kindness. Goodness. Faithfulness. Gentleness. Self-control.

That is what the Spirit does.

The Spirit takes people who belong to Christ and, one ordinary step at a time, teaches us to walk like the One to whom we already belong.

Good News for Anxious Christians | Something to Hear

Romans 10:14-17

September 13, 2027

Rev. Teer Hardy

Faith comes from hearing, and that is enough.

So, hear this: Jesus is for you. Your sins are forgiven. The powers of Sin and Death do not get the final word. You belong to God. Grace is yours.

Ready or Not | This is Not Your Cross to Bear

Matthew 16:21-30

August 30, 2026

Rev. Teer Hardy

We like putting words in Jesus’ mouth because the Jesus we invent in our image asks less of us. But Jesus tells his disciples: deny yourself, take up your cross, follow me.

Those words are hard.

But Jesus is not standing at a safe distance pointing us toward the cross. He is already headed that direction.

To Jerusalem.To rejection and suffering.To a hill outside the city where Sin and Death do their worst.And to a tomb that does not get the final word. Not for Jesus. And because of Jesus, not for you.

Following Jesus may cost us something: our comfort, reputation, certainty, need to be right, or insistence on staying safe.

Cost is not the point. Jesus is.

Jesus does not say, “Go find a cross. He says, “Follow me.”

There is a difference.

Ready or Not | The Unfinished Confession

Matthew 16:13-20

August 23, 2026

Rev. Teer Hardy

The church is built on a confession we barely understand, held together by a grace we did not create.

And that is enough. Not because our confession is small but because Jesus is so much bigger.

The church is unfinished. We are unfinished. And Jesus is still building.

Ready or Not | The Parable Who Wouldn’t Go Away

Matthew 15:10-28

August 16, 2026

Rev. Teer Hardy

The kingdom of heaven is like a woman who was told she did not belong. She came anyway. And when the church tried to send her away, she kept pushing toward the only one who could save her.
