We are witnesses

Wounds and Healing
God doesn’t play around in all’s well that ends well. God deals in resurrection. God deals in new life. God deals in redemption. God deals in grace.
With our return to indoor, in-person worship, the audio file for this sermon was not captured at high enough quality to post here.
Out the other side
Easter is not a return to normal. Easter is not a return to anything. Easter is all of our death, redeemed.
Tenacious Hope and Ancient Trust
From Hosannas to Crucify!, and every moment in between. In all of our whiplash and rushing around trying to save ourselves, God is working out our redemption.
The Days Are Surely Coming
God does not forsake his people.
For God so loved the world
What if God sees us, just the way we are and loves us still?
Our Foolish God
If only we can be just foolish enough to believe that God is redeeming everything.
God is always faithful
What matters; the only thing that matters, is not how faithful we are, but how faithful God is. And God is always faithful.
Naming Our Forgiveness
We sin; God forgives. We sin more; God forgives more. As much as any of us sin, God forgives, continually.
