Many churches focus on sin and forgiveness. What do you think is important about sin and forgiveness? Have you experienced these?

Continuing through the Apostles' Creed, we explore what it means to be the church. It's not just about showing up in worship every once in a while...

This week's focus is connected to the Easter story and resurrection. The mention of resurrection in the Apostles' Creed is brief, so what impact does it have on our faith today?

This week we examine the major portion of The Apostles' Creed, focusing on Jesus. Quite a few theological statements are claimed in this central section of the creed. We explore what The Apostles' Creed claims about Jesus and how these central claims form our faith.

This week we begin a new series on The Apostles' Creed, one of the earliest statements of the Christian faith. We will explore the opening phrase: "I believe in God the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth." Is it possible that everything we know about the God of the universe is still incomplete?

This Sunday's song and text are among the most emotional of Jesus' ministry. We are reminded us of Jesus' humanity as he prays about being overwhelmed, about sorrow, and the plea to be spared from what he knows will come.

This Sunday's service explores one of the New Testament's most enigmatic characters. Mary Magdalene can be found throughout the Gospels and is arguably the most important woman in Jesus' earthly life – aside from his mother.

This Sunday, we celebrate Palm Sunday (early) and ask ourselves important questions about our Lenten preparations and about what is worth celebrating in our faith.

This Sunday, we continue our Lenten worship series with a familiar text about Jesus being anointed with oil. John's version of this story brings about thoughts of scarcity, but perhaps that's the wrong way to think about it. Could there be a reading of this story that instead reminds us of God's generosity?

This Sunday we enter the season of Lent and our Jesus Christ Superstar series with the opening song, "Heaven on Their Minds." This song critiques Jesus and the disciples, and while it is from Judas' perspective, it is also very much from "the outside looking in." Our scriptures for this Sunday echo a similar perspective.
