Our quarantine series "Confined Contemplation" continues. One way for us to redeem this time is to settle into God's gift of rest and slowing down. Psalm 23 is a great psalm to contemplate as we consider what it means to rest in God. 

Featured Music: "Rest" by John Mark Pantana. 

After some special episodes for Holy Week, the Confined Contemplation series returns. Now that we are on the other side of Resurrection Sunday in the church calendar, we take a bit of a pivot and highlight some "positive dispositions" for such a time as this.  

Featured Music: "Ludwig's Dream" and "Valte's Dream" and "Lily's Dream" from The Brilliance; "TrusT" by Half-Alive.

After a few special Holy Week episodes, House Calls returns. On the fourth episode, Taylor, Sam, and Stephanie Facetime a few students to see how they are doing with the Covid-19 quarantine. You can find more information on our virtual small groups and bible studies here: https://establishedlnbc.squarespace.com/. 

We take another pause from our normally scheduled posts during the COVID-19 quarantine and Taylor shares some short thoughts on Resurrection Sunday. 

Since we are in Holy Week under Covid-19 quarantine, I wanted to share some thoughts on this important day for Jesus followers. Why is "Good Friday" a day of significance? 

We continue our short Sunday-morning series contemplating a Psalm. This week we look at Psalm 42 and how it speaks to our sadness. If you are struggling through disappointment in this season, I encourage you to take a few minutes to listen through this episode.

We continue our short Sunday-morning series contemplating a Psalm. This week we look at Psalm 3 and how it speaks to our fears and anxieties. Much of this was inspired by Tim Keller and his teaching on prayer and the Psalms. You can listen to Tim Keller's sermon, Praying Our Fears from his teaching series "Psalms - The Songs of Jesus."
