I believe in the holy catholic church. 

Have you ever wondered why we say this in the Creed? 

These are the most misunderstood words of the entire Creed, but they are every bit as significant as any other line.

Understanding what the church is and how it is both “holy” and “catholic” is central to understanding (read: remembering) who God calls us to be. 

As Christians, we believe that God is one God revealed in three persons-- the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. But for so many reasons, we struggle to name and recognize the Holy Spirit as active in our lives. In this sermon, Rev. Allie Shulman explores who the Spirit is in Scripture and how we can recognize the Spirit in our lives.

Over two-thirds of the Apostles' Creed is devoted to explaining and understanding the person and work of Jesus. But what do we really know about this 1st-century rabbi? What did it mean to call Jesus Christ God's Only Son, our Lord in the time of the apostles? Maybe more than we think. Join Rev. Allie Shulman as she explores who Jesus is and what that means for us today.

"Well, we've always done it this way." This explanation can be frustrating. This dynamic between how it was done before and how it's done now occurs a lot in religion. And frankly, the church has often done a poor job communicating WHY things are done a certain way. Nowhere is this more evident than the sacrament of Holy Communion. For two thousand years, the church has understood Holy Communion as essential to our faith and the centerpiece of worship. But WHY? In this sermon, Rev. Stephen Lohoefer shares the WHY behind Holy Communion.

Too often at church, we're told to leave our questions, our doubts, and our thoughts at the door.

What if God not only doesn't mind our questions but wants us to ask questions? What if our ability to ask questions is one of the primary ways we can know and understand who God is?

Rev. Allie Shulman explores how and why our questions matter to God. 

Have you ever experienced a side of someone that changed everything you thought you knew about them? This same thing can happen with God. The more we discover the complete image of God, the more we discover who we're created to be. On this Mother's Day sermon, Rev. Allie Shulman explores an often less-discussed metaphor for God.
