“In The Light of Community”
What does it look like to live in a beautiful community illumined by God’s light? This is a sermon on weddings, miracles, abundance, and the kind of community Jesus wants us to cultivate.

“Imagine and Treasure This Christmas”
Mary, the mother of Jesus, treasured and pondered the shepherds’ message in her heart. What does it look like for us to hear God’s message from unlikely messengers? We may be surprised at the hope, peace, joy, and love we encounter when we do so.

“The Lord Is Near”
What does it mean when we say, “The Lord is near?” How can we find joy and gentleness even when it seems there’s none to be had? An Advent sermon on reading Paul’s mail, memes, learning from Black joy, and how “The Lord is near” is not a statement of threat of invitation.

“Songs for the Season”
What do you do when you find yourself in a place that’s not ideal? What do we say or do when the night gets cold and silent? We sing songs—songs that sustain us with hope, peace, joy, love, and light.
