Just as electrical devices need to be connected to power sources to function optimally, there are things that we can plug into that help us live lives of purpose and meaning and lives that reflect who God created us to be. In this podcast, we will look at plugging into the most powerful source - Jesus Christ- and how he can change everything.

Do you feel like something might be missing in your life? Feel disconnected? Long for something more? Or, are you wrestling with all kinds of things to do and wondering when to say yes to something and when to say no? In this podcast we begin a new sermon series called "Plugged In." Just as electrical devices require connection to function optimally, there are certain things to which we can connect that bring our lives more strength and meaning. We begin this week with a reminder that purpose and fulfillment can be found when we plug into community where all belong.

We wrap up our summer series "Crossroads of Creation" this Sunday as we arrive at the end of Genesis. This week we explore the power of "Re-Membering" the stories of Genesis to remember God's relentless effort to save and redeem the world!

Jesus gave us a clear message about how his disciples' action among folks he called "the least of these." (Matthew 25:41-43) Mission partnerships to serve for Jesus are significant ways churches engage in his command. Our partnership with Manos Juntas in Mexico is such a partnership. This podcast holds an extra special treat in worship as Willie Berman (the missionary leader in Mexico) is at Trinity in worship at all services. Join us for an inspiring conversation with Willie!

Look at what God can do! Our journey through Genesis has shown us that time and time again that God can take the most difficult, broken experiences in the human family and turn them to something for good. That action is redemption. Join us in this podcast as we explore yet another act of redemption in what feels like an unredeemable situation.

What is it that people do that pushes your buttons - sets you off? Ever had so much that it actually affected your feelings toward them or your relationship? This week's installment in our "Crossroads of Creation" series, that's exactly what was going on with Joseph and his brothers - that fancy coat was the last straw.  Join us in this podcast as we explore how this ancient story intersects with ours.

When's the last time you wrestled with God about something? Did you end up with a sleepless night continuing to wrestle? Jacob, our ancient ancestor, had that kind of experience where he wrestled all night. It left him with a hip out of joint and a new name. Wow! Join us in this podcast as we explore his sleepless night and see what we can take from his experience for our own lives. 

Families are complicated. Sometimes they are filled with great love. Sometimes they are plagued with conflict and resentment. Many times they are some combination that lies between these two extremes. This week's Scripture offers us a glimpse at an important family in the book of Genesis. Join us in this podcast as we explore how God is at work in the lives of even the most imperfect family and what we can learn about faith through the sibling rivalry of two brothers.

Some of the texts in the Bible are hard to take. If we were honest, we'd just rather skip them over. This week's text is challenging, but there's some Good News about God that shines through. Join us in this podcast as we explore a God who is Just in Time! 

Whoever said that there's not much to laugh at in the Bible? Abraham and Sarah surely got a chuckle or two in their story. Join us in this podcast as we explore why their "laughing out loud" was a big deal.
