The Village Church Value - Community (AM Service)
Foremost among our values is that we are called to be the body of Christ and to live in community with each other. We recognize that being together is hard and that it takes work and sacrifice to be able to truly love and serve each other. We often throw parties and share meals in our homes as a way to offer the gifts of love and hospitality to others. Messages are preached in such a way that the community normally has opportunity to also speak into the passage. Various events such as Pilgrim Groups and Monastic Community Gatherings foster intimacy and we also host parties and other events in order to have places to connect our community with the broader community of Tucson. We teach and are taught to submit ourselves to the community and to listen for the truth that the community speaks into our lives. We strive to be a community known by its love.
The Village Church’s sermon podcast is more than just a weekly message. It is an invitation into the great and ongoing story of God’s work in the world. Pastors Eric, Mark, Susan, Daniel, and other leaders open the Scriptures not as a collection of abstract ideas but as the living, breathing witness to God’s kingdom breaking into our midst. Each episode is a call—not merely to listen, but to take part, to step forward into the life of faith with renewed vision and purpose.
Week by week, the pastors and leaders explore the deep rhythms of Christian discipleship—prayer, fasting, generosity—not as isolated duties but as part of a larger, richer, and more beautiful whole. They unpack these ancient practices in light of Jesus himself, the one in whom heaven and earth have come together. But they also turn their attention to the realities of everyday life—relationships, finances, the struggles and joys of being human—demonstrating how the gospel is not merely about what we believe but about how we live as God's renewed people in the present age.
