Awaken Community

We have a bit of a change of pace this week. Micah wasn’t able to make it Sunday morning so we did a prayer and reflection practice during the gathering. You can follow along with the prayer and reflection questions to participate. Micah’s sermon will be posted separately.

What does the role of memory play in our faith journeys and in that of a community? Psalm 77 gives us a window into that journey and how we hold it all as a community.

Throughout the gospels, Jesus teaches by saying "You have heard it said...but I say unto you..." as a way to show there's more. There's a deeper, fuller view than you've seen so far. What if we carried this on as a community? What would that look like?

This morning, we continue our series on Faith & Doubt with the quintessential doubter of the scriptures - Doubting Thomas. But could "Doubting Thomas" actually be someone to look up to instead of an example of what not to do?

The stories of Nicodemus illustrate the ways in which a question or a doubt can be the opening of a path to a deeper spiritual life.

To start off our new series, Micah introduces Brian McLaren's framework for the stages of faith and how doubt is a much closer friend to faith than we might think.

In Acts 1, Jesus send his disciples out in concentric circles of influence. This morning, we talk about who or what we are called and also sent to.

Pastor Judy Howard Peterson joins us again this morning to talk about reframing the mission of the church and how it can transform how we show up as the body of Christ in the world.

Why do people go to church? Why are we here? Why are you here? This morning, Micah talks about the point of this whole thing called church.

Rev. Kelly Chatman joins us this morning to talk about what it looks like for a community to be a place of welcome, safety, and belonging.
