Sermon by Tim Kim. Easter 2023.

A farewell sermon from Virginia. She will be missed, and we are thankful for this final blessing she offered!

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.

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.

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?
