The Road

Jesus called his followers to a wider circle of commitment, which he knew would cause disruption to a social order shaped profoundly by families and tribes. Today, in faith, we carry on the call to love every neighbor.

Jesus called his students to form a new community based in a message of good news that extended into every realm of life, bringing healing and hope.

In Jesus' teachings, death and resurrection we see a pattern of humility, service and love given generously to us and our neighbors. His witness remains with us forever. Our own life and witness ensures this way of life continues.

The Spirit breathes new life into us all, restoring us to community.

Faith brings renewal and hope, but we have to wait patiently for our life and the world to be perfected. The alternative is that we force a future that undermines the very spirit of faith.

By the grace and love of God we find belonging and acceptance, and we find purpose in sharing that love with all our neighbors.

It is through our relationship with Christ, and our relationships in community as siblings in Christ, that we together reflect God's love

The way of grace and love that Jesus taught provides us with values to build community and spread joy and unity.

The stories we tell shape us and our community. In the passion story, we come to understand what is good and true, and we find a road to healing and redemption.

Out of whatever fractures we see and experience in our life and the world, we have been given a new life as a living hope that brings peace and restoration.
