  • A time to...

    Preacher: Danny Sanchez

    All summer long, we've been exploring this strange and compelling (and strangely compelling) idea of God's Kin(g)dom. We've asked questions, like: where is it? When is it? How do we know? What are our hopes for it, as individuals and as a community? This Sunday is our final Summer service, and we'll be wrapping up our conversation on God's Kin(g)dom (for now) with a call to action: what will you do to take part in building it? We'll explore the simultaneity of beginnings and endings, working and resting, power and resistance. In that same spirit, we'll send off our intern, Danny, as he ends his internship with us and prepares to begin his final year of Divinity School.

  • Remake Believe: 95 (New) Theses Campaign

    Preacher: Virginia White

    It's no secret that things are awry in the capital C church. Division, discrimination, deception, death-dealing doctrines, and dire boredom seem to rule the day. Perhaps that's why many of us ended up here at R+B: a little church trying to figure out how to remake belief. We wanted to find (or build) something a bit more wild and alive, and a lot more loving. 


    Collectively, we've been at it for a while now. We've learned a lot and yet we know our work is not nearly done. We have our own unlearning, listening, and growing to do. Remaking belief is a lifelong journey - beckoning us beyond what we know. 

    This Sunday we are going to recommit to this (re)making believe stuff in a fresh way. We’re launching our 95 (New) Theses campaign! A way for us to share our deepest dreams and biggest imaginings for a better church (and world) with one another and to hear from people beyond this community about what they yearn for as well.

    Scripture: Luke 13:10-17

  • Dreaming Accountability

    Preacher: Tim Kim

    If you haven't heard, I (Tim) will be going on sabbatical starting in July. Which means this week will be my last service until the fall. Which means I would love to see everyone before I go! Join us as we wrap up the last couple months of conversation around the ideas of Invitation, Contemplation, and Co-creation. If you were at our All Together Meeting, we talked about them being the values that have risen to the surface over years of conversation and practice. And now that we've laid them on the table, what's next?
