Eastertide | Baptism Sunday (April 24, 2022)
This morning we celebrate the Sacrament of Baptism at The Parish. Listen along to a brief introduction to the sacrament.
Lent | A Reconciling Community (March 27, 2022)
Our world feels fractured, and behind the fractures are forces that reinforce division and dehumanization. Yet, if anyone is in Christ – Paul claims – there is a new creation! Dare we believe that a whole new reconciling force is at work in the world now and we are invited to participate?
Lent | Listen to Him (March 20, 2022)
“This is my Son, my Chosen” the unseen voice rang out. “Listen to him!” This week we enter the story of the Transfiguration with prayers and practices to help us listen. Like the disciples, we tend to elevate other voices alongside Jesus', only to find ourselves overwhelmed by all the noise. How might we create space through silence to amplify Christ as the Living Word in our lives?
Lent | A Generous Story (March 13, 2022)
On the plains of Moab, the Israelites sat poised on the edge of a promised land. Just before walking into this new reality, God gave guidance on how they were to steward their practical resources. Giving, it turns out, is the inspired response to God’s gracious rescue and the through-line of redemption in their story. Might it be the same for us?
Lent | All Things Are Yours, All Things Are God’s (March 6, 2022)
Sunday’s message was based on the parable of the prodigal son. As Jordan walks us through the choices of the younger and elder sons, we are invited to see the goodness of the Father.
Epiphany | Community With Hands Open (February 27, 2022)
Our gathering begins with a special announcement from Family Pastor, Sarah Fetz, and is followed by a brief financial update from Senior Warden of the Vestry, Andy Culp. Jordan leads us in a homily on Luke 6.
Epiphany | Community With Heart Open (February 20, 2022)
This morning we continue the conversation around our Parish community. The message begins with a look into the financial life of our church from vestry member, Mike Nelson, and continues with words from Jordan on 1st Corinthians 12-13 around our hope to be a community of wounded healers.
Epiphany | Community in the Body of Christ (February 13, 2022)
Beginning with a thoughtful reading of 1st Corinthians 12 via The Message, Jordan talks about The Parish' desire to build something more than a Sunday morning community. A community where we can all belong and participate, as one body with unique roles to play, just as Paul describes in 1st Corinthians 12.
Epiphany | Community in the Threshing Floor (February 6, 2022)
This week Jordan continues a conversation around our Parish community. We hear the words of John, see the baptism of Christ, and gather an understanding of our expectations, questions, and hopes in this journey.
Epiphany | Community in the Wilderness (January 30, 2022)
This week Jordan begins a journey with our community. In the reading from Luke 3 & 4, we hear about how some people misplaced their expectations on John the Baptist when Christ alone is Savior and Deliverer. Listen along as Jordan shares insight on expectations in his own story and the story of all believers.
