Talk to me by Grace Chapel Sermon Media

When we take the time to understand another person's experience, we, and they, become more open to God's work in our lives.

There’s a lot of work we have to do on our journey toward racial justice. Empathy may not be the first thing that comes to mind, but empathy is a vital step on that journey. And it’s more powerful than we may think you.

Real empathy is hard work, and it’s a risk, because we’re opening ourselves up to other people’s experiences, seeing what they see, hearing what they hear, and feeling what they feel. But through it we gain a deeper understanding of the issues the world is facing… and ourselves.

A few years ago Grace Chapel invited a handful of people to join Pastor Jeanette Yep on a Racial Justice Team, with the goal of helping our congregation understand and address the challenges facing the church and society today.

In this podcast a few of those team members come together to share a bit about their life experiences and the role that empathy has played in their journeys and their efforts.

From loneliness to love by Grace Chapel Sermon Media

New Years' Day is a day we think about what could be. The year is new. Mark's gospel begins with Jesus entering the world stage as an adult and proclaiming that the time has come. The kingdom of God has come near. Jesus calls his first disciples, and even though they do not understand what he is calling them to, they follow. Will we take the next step even if we don't know what the future holds?

What is my next step in following Jesus?

How do I move confidently into an unknown future?

When Jesus calls, how should I respond?

call, respond, repent, believe, commitment, trust
