  • Know Your Gifts for Welcoming

    Is everyone with a gift for hospitality a talkative extrovert who loves talking to strangers? Not at all! There are so many ways to welcome others. The story of Mary and Martha in Luke's gospel shows us there are different ways to serve, but what really matters is the heart we have for serving and welcoming.  

    Rev. Chelsea Benham preaching on Luke 10:38-42 on October 24, 2021.

  • Welcome Christ in Every Person

    Where can we find Jesus? How do we welcome Jesus? Jesus tells us exactly how to do it: welcome and care for the least of these. Then we see there are opportunities to see Jesus everywhere.   

    Rev. Chelsea Benham preaching on Matthew 25:31-46 on October 17, 2021.

  • Welcome Others as God Welcomes You

    We can only offer hospitality to other because God has first welcomed us. True or false? God welcomes us in creation in Genesis 1, and that changes everything.   Rev. Chelsea Benham preaching on Genesis 1:1-2:4a on October 10, 2021.

  • God's Hospitality

    God calls us to practice hospitality, but what does that mean? Is hospitality just fancy hotels and preparing a 3-course meal for friends at your house? Biblical hospitality is much simpler, and deeper, than that. 

    Rev. Chelsea Benham preaching on Mark 10:13-16 on October 3, 2021.

    Our world is mired in division; differences leave us polarized. But God is undaunted by our differences and in fact works through them. God is working to bring us together.
