Release

Lent is the church season of reflection, repentance, and fasting to prepare ourselves for Easter. But as we reflect on the past year, all of us have been constantly forced to give up things in our life. We have gone without career opportunities, vacations, relationships, celebrations, safety… we have been forced to involuntarily “fast” from life and are tired of it. Too much has been taken away from us, and we find ourselves fighting to hold onto what we can of our former lives. Yet the Gospel we cling to is a story that includes surrender and loss. It invites us to see the power of the cross through our own journey – discovering new life for the one we yield to God. This Lent join us as we explore the unique invitation and blessing of release.

Hidden: A Journey through Esther

The book of Esther presents a fascinating narrative because it is the only book of the Bible that never mentions the name of God. For many of us, this may feel hauntingly similar to the current experience of our lives – discouragingly void of God sightings. Even for the most optimistic among us, the long haul of the pandemic and the outpouring of intense cultural and natural tragedies has left us thirsty for some relief. How do we enter the new year with renewed faith for what God is stirring in our lives? How do we see God’s goodness in such a dark season of life? For generations Jews and Christians have faithfully found God’s hand woven into this powerful tale. While seemingly invisible, God’s movement emerges as a consistent and mighty force that influences an entire nation. Join us as we begin the new year exploring the book of Esther through its main cast of characters and find God’s hidden presence revealed both in this ancient story and in your life today.

Word Became Flesh: Advent 2020

After 9 months of the coronavirus pandemic, we have changed our habits and routines to slow the spread of this disease. In the process, we have necessarily starved ourselves of an aspect of our humanity that is vital to our spirit – touch. The sense of touch can communicate so much – love, forgiveness, anger, fear, comfort, and so much more. Living in an untouchable world “6 feet apart” from everyone around us has awakened us all to our hunger for this essential experience. This Advent join us as we reflect on how “the Word became flesh” in order to touch all of humanity. From Mary’s immaculate conception to Thomas touching the wounds of Christ, we will explore the transforming touch of God that is born into our lives. May you discover God’s gracious touch in your life this Christmas season.

When Darkness Reigns: 2020 Election Sermon Mini-Series

As the 2020 November election approaches, we have felt and seen a noticeable rise in division, fear, and anxiety in our national countenance. The right and the left oppose each other with vitriol, and our leaders have stoked the fires with incendiary comments and actions. Even now, there is rising tension as we brace for a possible contested election outcome and increased activity of militia groups within our borders. As we look on in disbelief that this could happen in 21st century America, we consider how God might be moving in the darkness. Historic times of extreme difficulty are not foreign to the people of God. Our faith reminds us that we find the crucified Christ when life becomes most difficult. In the gospel narratives we read of one such moment in the Garden of Gethsemane, where the Christ story plunges into suspense and despair in these hours before Jesus’ arrest. Jesus himself identifies this as an hour “when darkness reigns”. The disciples are gathered – understandably confused, triggered, and fearful. Their temptations are our temptations. We can learn much from how they respond, and the example of Jesus in this crucible moment. In this critical election season, join us as we consider how the people of God are called to respond faithfully when darkness reigns.

Beauty for Ashes: The Soul of the New Humanity

As I write the description for this sermon series, the sky is quite literally raining ash from the Bobcat wildfire in the San Gabriel Mountains. This is only the latest event that has blanketed our society with tragedy and hardship. We continue to be in the depths of a global pandemic, a national political schism, and a bursting racial tension sparked by recent police killings of unarmed Black Americans. It feels a bit like the world is on fire (the west coast definitely is).
It’s overwhelming to consider tackling a global health crisis or systemic racism in America. No congregation could do that – no matter it’s resources or influence. So what is God calling the Church (and Evergreen) to be during one of the ugliest moments of history? Join our online services as we discover how the vision of the New Humanity (Eph 2) invites us to create and proclaim the beauty of God’s Kingdom in the midst of our current world.
