Sometimes the loudest message from God comes in silence. In this week’s sermon, Pastor Ruthie Seiders unpacks the story of Elijah from 1 Kings 19—a prophet who faced fear, fatigue, and frustration after a dramatic spiritual victory.

God’s question to Elijah—“What are you doing here?”—invites us to reflect on our own seasons of discouragement, transition, and spiritual weariness. Through story, scripture, and personal testimony, Pastor Ruthie reminds us that God meets us not just in the fire, wind, or earthquake, but in the sound of sheer silence.

📖 Scripture: 1 Kings 19:1–18

On this Pentecost Sunday, Pastor Ruthie Seiders delivers a heartfelt and Spirit-filled message titled “Just Love and Live in God,” rooted in 1 John 4:7–21.

Through personal stories—including her wedding 42 years ago in a seminary chapel—and deep biblical insight, Pastor Ruthie unpacks what it means to live in agape love: a love that originates with God, is revealed through Christ, and is made real in us by the Holy Spirit.

📖 Scripture: 1 John 4:7–21

🔥 Theme: Pentecost – Love like Jesus in the power of the Spirit

💬 Key Verse: “We love because He first loved us.”

This message reminds us that while God’s love is freely given, it calls us to respond—by loving one another, serving the Church, and trusting the Spirit in every season, including this one of pastoral transition.

🕊️ “God is love… and His love is made complete in us.”

How do we know what voices to trust in a world overflowing with messages? In this week's Just Love series message, Pastor Tim Ghali explores 1 John 4:1–6, where the Apostle John urges us to "test the spirits"—to discern truth from deception.

From AI-generated misinformation to subtle TikTok influencers, Pastor Tim challenges us to examine the voices shaping our beliefs and to hold them up against the teachings of Jesus. With wisdom, humor, and honesty, this sermon invites us to slow down, reflect, and re-center our lives on Christ through Scripture, community, and prayer.

🕊️ "When we test the spirits, we not only overcome false teachings but hear the true voice of God more clearly and follow Jesus more deeply."

For some, it’s comfort. For others, it’s pain.

But what if family could be something bigger—more inclusive, more redemptive?
