  • "D is For...Dinah"
    Jun 15 2025
    Genesis 34 is known as a text of terror for its violent themes and storyline. This chapter is the only story we have about Dinah, one of Jacob's daughters, but she doesn't even get a voice in this passage. Pastor Jacob explores her story and tragedy of the cycles of violence it contains. While there may not be much hope in this passage, might there be hope in the rest of Scripture? And while there seems to be little hope to be found in the current mass deportations targeting women and children, might there be hope that the tides are turning in how we embrace immigrants in our country?

  • This Is Who We Are: "Cross Bearers"
    May 4 2025
    Like Simon of Cyrene carrying the cross of Jesus, we are called to be cross bearers. As a church community we carry each other's burdens when they are too heavy to carry alone, and we carry the burdens and problems of society when we can't fix them by ourselves. This is who we are!
