What happens when worship truly changes us?

This episode explores the invitation to be transformed through worship and then sent into the world to live by another way. Reflecting on the journey of the Magi, we consider how encountering Jesus—through prayer, song, scripture, and Eucharist—reorients our lives, sometimes subtly and sometimes boldly. What might it mean to leave worship each week guided not by a star, but by the light of Christ?

Where do we notice God in the days that feel most ordinary? This episode reflects on learning to pay attention—to light, to beauty, and to God’s quiet presence woven through everyday life. Drawing on Psalm 80 and the promise of Emmanuel, we explore how God restores us not by fixing everything, but by being with us. What might change if we slowed down long enough to notice the Godlight already surrounding us?

What do we do when hope feels fragile and the darkness feels close? In this Advent sermon, we reflect on Mary’s song—not as naïve optimism, but as courageous trust in a God who is already at work. As doubt surfaces in both Mary’s story and John the Baptist’s question to Jesus, we’re invited to look for signs of God’s grace, healing, and mercy in our own lives and communities. This episode calls us to become “catchers of the light,” naming and sharing hope even as we wait for God’s kingdom to dawn.
