Eastown Church

We are continuing our series 'Storyline' focusing on forgiveness. There are certain circumstances in our lives that are unjust, painful and sometimes even abusive, that seem too big to move past.

Forgiveness is not minimizing the seriousness of the offense. Forgiveness is not resuming a relationship without changes. Forgiveness is not forgetting what happened. What forgiveness truly is may just change everything for you!

Every season of life requires a different response. Life brings us hard moments in which we are searching for answers, suffering through grief, or struggling to define what is most important to us.

This Sunday we hear from Stacie Wood, teaching pastor at Echo Church here in the Bay Area. Her journey with adoption and miscarriage have been defining seasons of her life and in this message we will explore how our response to these trials can either draw us closer to God or push us further away.

Nancy Ortberg is kicking off our new series “Storyline” tomorrow @eastownchurch

Nancy served as a teaching pastor for eight years at Willow Creek Community Church in South Barrington, Illinois.

She is a founding partner of Teamworx 2, a business and leadership consulting firm that provides fast-paced, practical, and compelling sessions to leaders and their teams.

Perseverance, strength and wisdom are the legacies we hope to leave behind for future generations.

This Father's Day we hear Byron Chung's incredible story about what he learned from his father and grandfather who immigrated to the United States from China.

Summer is here, restrictions are lifting and things seem to be returning to a more normal rhythm.

We're ready to get back to life - but this time with greater intentionality.

This Sunday we are talking about PACE. What would it look like to examine our once packed and overworked schedules? What if God is offering a different way?

God's priority is His people, and He calls us as the church to meet the inner needs of His people. Who is it that you need to love? Join us as we start our new series regarding how we might want to think differently about life going back to normal.

This past year has made it really easy for us to assume that everyone is only focused on their own interests, but we have the opportunity as a church to rejoice in what God has done for us and turn the church into a place of celebration!

Looking around at the pain and brokenness in our world, we believe we are created to be a part of the solution. What each one of us chooses to do with what we have been given matters!

Contempt seems to slip all too easily in our hearts, especially after this last year. Both unity and healing feel out of reach. So how can we stop the devaluing of others? What powerful change might we see if honor is restored? Jalen Seawright is back to share with us!

Mom, You're A Rockstar! You've been amazing this past year and we want to celebrate you.We also know that Mother's Day can be a difficult day for some.  Either way, join us as we are creating both an honoring and encouraging day for women.
