Salt House - Sermons

Angela is Asain. And the rise of anit-Asian hate in our culture and country is deeply troubling to her and she wants to share her message with us. Powerfully and prophetically, Angela invites us into a deeper knowing of what we can do to be a more inclusive community of faith.

As followers of Jesus, we are invited into a sacramental way of living -- ordinary things communicating the extraordinary love of God for us, in us, and through us. And in these mundane, ordinary moments, we are invited to live with God-sized expectancy about what this extraordinary love can do.

This Sunday will be a defining moment for our Salt House community as our "Why Worship?" sermon series explores "Why Give?" What we do with our money is a spiritual issue - Jesus says more about money than anything else! - because it's an issue of the heart. Come and catch the vision we have for how God is inviting us to expand our hearts for mission and ministry, together - here on our corner in Kirkland, and beyond.

This Sunday, we double dip a little bit into both an experience of confession and absolution and celebrating Mother’s Day; not just those who have mothered us, but also the fierce and tender mothering heart of God! We've got a special performance from the fabulously talented Saunders Mother and Daughters team.

Each Sunday in our WHY WORSHIP? series we'll explore one of the worship elements at Salt House and parse out the why behind the what of our regular practices.

This Sunday, we ask the question, WHY SING? We'll explore the goodness of this practice and lament the fact that we've not been able to do this together for some time now (thanks a lot coronavirus!). Join us online, bring your joyful (or anxious, or languishing) noise and we'll discover some of the goodness of singing together in worship.

Why Worship? This is the question we'll ponder over the next several weeks, examining what we do and why we do it. It's a journey of discovery and meaning for us this season.

THE EASTER ENCORE CONTINUES because Christ is risen! Join us this Sunday as we hear a word of grace from Thomas' encounter with Jesus after the resurrection. Using the practice of Lectio Divina as a jumping off point, Pastor Sara will speak to the wholistic embrace of grace God offers as revealed in resurrection.

Here is Pastor Ryan is preaching on Holy Hilarity. Here's what he has to say about it: The Bible is really funny. Okay, it might be hard for us to spot Ancient Near Eastern humor, but let me pitch to you the hilarity of God this Sunday.

Easter Sunday! Christ is risen. Christ is risen indeed! Pastor Sara invites us into the meaning of easter and the meaning of life. Experience the joy of easter this season!

Palm Sunday at Salt House - the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem can be understood in many different ways. Pastor Ryan helps us frame the story through the lens of The Myth of Redemptive Violence, and why Jesus just doesn't fit the mold.
