    Why Does God Hide?

    If God wants us to know who he is, why doesn’t he put up a clear billboard on every highway or write in the sky? Could it be that we do actually meet God very directly, but in a closer way than we realize?

      Debt Collector or Free Agent: The Real Cost of Holding a Grudge

      We all know we should “let it go,” but how? Let's explore why forgiveness takes practice, how acting with mercy can come before feeling merciful, and how releasing resentment makes room for freedom, peace, and goodness.

        When the Music Stops

        The Unfinished Symphony – Part III

        As life nears its end, whether for ourselves or someone we love, we may find ourselves wondering what we can still offer. Words can feel inadequate. Yet there is a gift in simply being present, listening with tenderness, and giving love room to speak through small acts of care. Together, let’s see how we can meet these sacred moments with compassion and trust in God’s enduring presence.

          Finding Consolation When Things Don't Work Out

          The Unfinished Symphony – Part II

          As we noted in part one, much of life will remain an unfinished symphony. How do we find consolation when the path goes a different direction than what we would’ve hoped? Can we look more towards reminders of God‘s presence and not just solely look at assurances of God‘s power?

            The Gift of Disillusionment

            The Unfinished Symphony – Part I

            The unfinished symphony is not just a musical score. It actually is life. Countless times we struggle with expectations around how we thought life would go and the disillusionment when it does not go the way we had hoped. How can we hold the unfinished symphony that is our lives as something beautiful even if it is not yet complete?

              The World Turned Rightside Up

              There are many one-off miracles. But what if we came to see EVERYTHING as a miracle? We can gain that sight, but it only comes from the bottom up.

                The Golden Life

                The psychological brilliance and distinctive effectiveness of Jesus’ key teaching

                “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,” also known as the golden rule, is widely seen as one of Jesus’ most impactful teachings. It single-handedly gives direction and artfully sidesteps some major pitfalls that other moral teachings run into. In this service we’ll look at how to infuse your life with it.

                  Finding the Divine on the Page and in Life

                  What if an ancient book could train your eye to spot the Divine in life’s ordinary moments, and train your conscience to recognize the Lord’s voice amid the noise?

                    How to be Religious Without Being a Jerk

                    For many, unfortunately, when they hear someone is religious, they believe them to be judgmental, pompous and harsh. But true religion is far different. How can we practice our faith without offending others?

                      Are You Glad You Know Me?

                      We’re called by God to love one another. In this service we’ll get to pause and see ourselves through the eyes of those we care about, and how every relationship is an opportunity to feel the joy of mutual giving.
