St. Thérèse of Lisieux is considered by many one of the greatest saints to ever live, and yet during her short life she lived in obscurity. Thérèse guides us to notice how our small and quiet everyday lives are an invitation to be shaped into the image of Christ. Together, we consider how God is forming us through our everyday interactions into the people we are meant to become in Him.

Ever feel like your life is out of control? Would you consider this time in your life unsteady or maybe even crazy? We have a natural tendency that when things feel out of control, we try to gain control by any means necessary...but is that best?

Ryan Kenny (Ephesians 1:15-23)

In a culture of “do better, try harder,” it is easy to busy ourselves in the effort of finding more fulfillment, more purpose, more status. Yet, no matter how many times we try this, we come up empty, still missing what it seems we are truly desiring. The good news is that there is “more” for you and I, but it does not come in the form we are most familiar with… it comes in a form that asks us to receive, to humble ourselves, and to look out beyond ourselves.

Ryan Kenny (Titus 3)

The call of the gospel to follow Christ in redemptively engaging with the world is a radical break from the exclusive self-concern that dominates most family and tribal loyalties, religious systems, and nationalistic ideologies. It is a continuation of the call to wider faith and focus that is at the core of Israel’s covenant relationship with God. Titus 3 highlights some of the critical truths that make this radical outward shift of our heart and concern possible.

Ryan Kenny (Matthew 6:19-24)

Money is the root of all evil, something never said but often quoted. Actually, “the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil.” The second seems to be a greater caution, as the object of money isn’t the danger, it’s our association with it. Are you aware of your relationship to money? To your stuff? 

If not aware, money and possessions can become the greatest force in our lives, for better or worse. Jesus offers a way forward to choose resistance to ourselves, to actually live greater than ourselves when it comes to our money.

Ryan Kenny (Matthew 6:9-13)

“Be yourself!” We are encouraged at every turn to live authentically, to not suppress our true self, and to express ourselves at all costs. While there are great benefits in this cultural moment of growing in expression of identity, what about when just being ourselves isn’t helpful, and at times even harmful? Jesus offers a way forward to choose resistance to ourselves, to actually live greater than ourselves.

Ryan Kenny (Matthew 6:16-18)

What if the very things you reach for to satisfy your cravings are the same things keeping you restless and disconnected? Fasting invites us to step away from the noise and distractions of life to confront our deepest needs and open ourselves to God’s transformative presence. In letting go, we discover that true satisfaction isn’t found in fulfilling every desire but in making space for the One who truly fills us.

Ryan Kenny (John 20:19-27)

Most often, the quickest way to peace is for our circumstances to be or become favorable. To never get news of the diagnoses, for the relationship to magically repair, the unexpected check in the mail to erase the debt… but this isn’t reality is it? Jesus offers a reality beyond our visibility that can bring peace, even when life isn’t peaceful.
