  • Strength to Love #1: Forgiveness and Tragic Blindness - Chris Townley
    Over the next 5 weeks, we'll be preaching from the book “Strength to Love” by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. a volume of his most well known homilies.⁠
    ⁠
    King had begun working on the sermons during a fortnight in jail in July 1962. While behind bars, he spent uninterrupted time preparing the drafts for works such as “Loving Your Enemies” and “Shattered Dreams,” and he continued to edit the volume after his release.⁠
    ⁠
    Collectively they present King’s fusion of Christian teachings and social consciousness and promote his prescient vision of love as a social and political force for change.⁠ In this sermon, Pastor Chris guides us through the sermon "Love In Action" as King describes the complexities of forgiveness and tragic blindness.

    Advent is a season in which we wait for God and with God. A season of waiting on God in ways that open us more and more completely to the fullness of God, a time to learn to wait as God waits.

  • Truthsgiving: A Trail of Tears - Erin Dooley & Tahda Ahtone
    Truthsgiving, coined by Indigenous activist Christine Nobiss is meant to dismantle common misunderstandings about Thanksgiving with...well, the truth.⁠ In this episode you'll hear a moving story from our friend, Tahda Ahtone, whose Native roots and knowledge of American genocide made it difficult for her to follow Jesus...but God.⁠
    ⁠
    On this final Sunday of our series "The Violence of Love," Pastor Erin concludes our time in homilies by Oscar Romero, guides us through Psalm 46, and creates space for us to sit in what it means to lament and wait on the Lord. ⁠

  • The Violence of Love #9: Mary's Song of Justice - Chris Townley
    "We cannot do everything, and there is a sense of liberation in realizing that. This enables us to do something, and to do it very well. It may be incomplete, but it is a beginning, a step along the way, an opportunity for the Lord's grace to enter and do the rest.” - Oscar Romero
    We are in week 9 of our journey through the work of Oscar Romero and the way he preached the Good News of Jesus among the poor and oppressed of El Salvador.
    As we continue to seek to create space to practice the ways of Jesus as the multiethnic family of God, remember, your whole self is welcomed into the community of God and the community of Kaleo. We will conclude our gathering with a meal. See you this evening, friends. You are loved.
