The Surprising Sunrise (Easter Sunday, 2021)
On Easter morning, we follow Mary Magdalene and the faithful women to the garden of resurrection. Listen along to Jordan's homily on Easter Sunday, April 4, 2021.
Holy Week 2021 | Saturday
This year, we're entering into Holy Week one day at a time. Holy Saturday invites us into the place between the pain and the promise. Morgan leads us in a reflection of how often life can seem like a Holy Saturday, in-between reality, and how we might meet Jesus in all that is unresolved.
Holy Week 2021 | Friday
This year, we're entering into Holy Week one day at a time. On Good Friday, we step into the courts to listen in on the trial of Jesus and the cries of the mob as it turns on him. As on that day, we are presented with the choice between two visions of Jesus, two contrasting Messiahs, two sons of the Father. Which image of Jesus will we allow our lives to be conformed to?
Holy Week 2021 | Thursday
This year, we're entering into Holy Week one day at a time. This Maundy Thursday, we enter the Upper Room & follow Jesus to the garden. We notice the postures of the disciples – around the table, eating, reclining, sleeping, denying, betraying. How might we be invited to prayerfully discern the difference between "my will" and "thy will"?
Holy Week 2021 | Sunday – Wednesday
This year, we're entering into Holy Week one day at a time. This first video covers the events from Palm Sunday through Spy Wednesday and in it we see how Holy Week is a symbol of sorts for the full range of human experience. We'll zoom in on the contrasting postures of Judas the Betrayer and Mary the Anointer - where are we grabbing on, and where are we pouring out?
Rainy Day | A Contemplative Prayer Gathering
In anticipation of "rainy days" during this season of outdoor church gatherings, we've created some simple and spacious prayer services to call on when needed. This first "Rainy Day" gathering was created by David Darnell and a handful of others in our Parish community. We encourage you to find a quiet space to meet with God as this video guides you in a 25 minute time of prayer.
Being Conformed to the Image of Christ (March 21, 2021)
Learning to release control is imperative to spiritual formation. Robert Mulholland says, "Spiritual formation is the great reversal: from acting to being acted upon, from being the subject who controls to being a person who is shaped by God." Listen along as we continue the journey of being shaped to the image of Christ.
A Journey with God (March 14, 2021)
Join us as we discuss Spiritual Formation and the journey of becoming more Christlike. This morning Jordan suggests this question of Spiritual Formation: in which direction are we being formed: as agents of God’s healing or carriers of the sickness of the world?
The Door to Your Own Heart (Third Sunday of Lent, March 7, 2021)
Join us as we begin meeting at Mount Pisgah Christian School in March. This morning Jordan introduces again our series for the month, The Hidden Heart.
The Wilderness Leads Home (February 28, 2021, 2nd Sunday of Lent)
Our last digital-only gathering. Listen along as Jordan teaches through Exodus 13 and shares an important update on our search for a gathering place.
