Turn the other cheek
God is with us, stand together for peace.
Blessed are You…
Jesus says we are all blessed, and promises us what we need. Jesus starts his story with the ending, he tells us that we will get what we need. We are called to create an inclusive society. It will be challenging, but we will receive peace, mercy, and the kingdom of heaven. We live between “Oh, Lord” and “Praise, Jesus”
Hey, Siri
We don’t have all the answers. We can’t know everything. Even with all of today’s technology, we don’t always get the truth, but if we keep seeking the Holy Spirit, God will show us the way.
Character Matters
Sometimes the right move is not to shout louder, but to bring laughter. Sometimes bringing about God’s justice means moving on. Violence will not bring justice. Even when it is hard, God calls us to bring justice.
Christ in Every Eye
God chose to become one of us. God understands. We have power to stand up, to bring good news, to change. Let the Word shine bright.
Good News is Louder
God extends God’s hand to the unlikely ones to share the Good News. Share it with those you meet.
God is with Us
Choose not to turn away. Love calls us to join the story of the Prince of Peace. Do we believe in God’s dream? Will we stay?
Let Justice Roll
Hate evil! Love good! Have compassion for everyone we meet. Let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an everflowing stream. A song of peace for their land and for mine.
The Dance of The Ages
We are part of a long line of people of faith who followed Christ. Through Jesus, God showed us how to be human. They demonstrated a love that shows up. We reorient our living to reflect the best of those who came before us.
Stewardship
Is it a miracle or is it sharing? The community came together an no one went hungry. The sharing is the miracle. The steward must use the resources as God wishes, not as they themselves may wish.
