We conclude our series on the dreamers of the Bible by turning to our quintessential dreamer in Scripture, Joseph, complete with his amazing, technicolor dreamcoat. Joseph interprets one of Pharaoh's dreams that predicts 7 years of plenty followed by 7 years of famine are coming to Egypt. How do we learn from Joseph's story how to navigate the lean years and the good years of our own lives?

If America is just as much of an Empire as the ones of history such as the Roman Empire and the Mongol Empire, what are the warning sides that this empire might fall? Join Pastor Jacob and he reflects on what created the American Empire we know today and how our ultimate allegiance belongs to the realms of God.

In a world where things never seem to change or to get better, it can be an act of resistance to dream that perhaps the world can become a better place after all. However, it may take a bit of wrestling, maybe even wrestling with God. Join Pastor Jacob as he tells the story of a Biblical dreamer named Jacob who thought that perhaps the vision of heaven might come to earth, but it wasn't as easy as he thought it would be.

The Bible is full of dreams-- wild, profound, practical, and more. This stewardship season we will learn these dreamers' stories, and we will dare to dream ourselves!

When one path leads us toward harm, Jesus breaks in and shows us a new Way.

We are always called to challenge corrupt systems.

It's easy to walk past people without noticing them, until we realize each person is God's masterpiece.

After he rises from the grave, Jesus begins appearing to his disciples. In one tender scene, he cooks a group of them breakfast on the beach and asks Peter a very important question…three times. Join Pastor Jen as she explains why Peter needed this moment with Jesus and why the same question is asked of us all.
