Our pastor sat down a couple of weeks ago to have a conversation with one of our newer members and we'd love for you to listen in! They talked about how Michelle and her wife found WBC, what it was like to visit for the first time, and why they ultimately made the decision to join as members.

It is a delightful conversation and we're so grateful for our new members who bring "fresh eyes" to help us see what we're doing well and also ways we can improve to continue welcoming new folks into the fold! Hope you'll take a listen!

We're so glad you're listening to our podcast! This sermon is based on Ruth 1:1–22, which is the beginning of the story of Ruth and Naomi. The sermon, however, centers on Ruth's sister-in-law Orpah, who quickly fades from the story. In this sermon we wonder if, perhaps, there is to be something gained by focusing on Orpah's experience? Perhaps she has been too quickly overlooked in Christian history and interpretation. And her experience might offer us deep wisdom for our own lives and decisions today. Hope it will be a meaningful word to you this week.

We're so glad you're listening to our podcast! This sermon is based on Judges 4:1–24, which is the story of Deborah's reign as judge of Israel, along with Jael's brief but violent encounter with Sisera. It's part of our summer sermon series "Rediscovering Forgotten Women of the Bible." In this sermon we wonder what Deborah and Jael's stories have to say about "biblical womanhood," and if perhaps it's a bit wider and more impactful than we've previously believed. Hope it is a challenging and encouraging word to you this week.

We're so glad you're listening to our podcast! This sermon is based on 1 Kings 21:1–16, which is the story of Jezebel, Ahab, and Naboth's Vineyard. It's the first in our summer sermon series "Rediscovering Forgotten Women of the Bible." In this sermon we wonder if, perhaps, Jezebel has been mis-remembered, and that her reputation has vastly outpaced what's actually in scripture. After all, have you ever met someone named Jezebel? Hope it is a helpful and meaningful word to you this week.

We're so glad you're listening to our podcast! This sermon is based on 1 John 1. It's the second sermon in our "Hot Takes on Scripture's Hottest Topics" sermon series and focuses on the concept of "sin." In Scripture is "sin" just a list of "thou shalt not's"? Or does it have more to do with the way we live in relationship with God and others? We're glad you're listening in as Rev. Kali Cawthon-Freels shares her wisdom! Hope it is a helpful and meaningful word to you this week.
