There is always a day after conflict. It doesn’t all end when one side wins and the other loses. Why does that matter to us? Because we have a big “day after” moment coming up in November.

We take a look at the next Fruit of the Holy Spirit: Faithfulness. I clear up some misconceptions about faith and how it is different than belief. Transformation begins with faith… not belief.

We take a look two fruits of the Spirit through the lens of ancient wisdom this week. Kindness and gentleness. We need them more than ever.

We take a look at the second fruit of the Holy Spirit today through the lens of the wisdom of Proverbs. We find something quite surprising… joy is found in justice.

We begin a new sermon series called “How to Foolproof Your LIfe.” We will look at how to add wisdom to our lives focusing in on the Fruit of the Spirit. Wisdom is way better than knowledge. We begin today with love.

We continue to look at the message behind the miracles found in the gospel of John. Today we discover the meaning behind Jesus walking on water. It is something we all need.

We are looking at John’s story of Jesus… specifically the signs of Jesus. They were chosen by John for a reason but we have to dig deeper to find understands. This week, two back to back healings.

It is the day of Pentecost (the birthday of the Church) but it is a day we lament the racism in our nation. How do these two go together? The Spirit gives us the strength to be advocates.

This Easter we may doubt that God is with us… our doubts or even our troubles might be affecting our faith right now. Jesus comes to us and rolls the stone away from our fear filled tombs. Christ is risen. He is risen indeed.

We begin Holy Week with Palm Sunday. We remember Jesus triumphant entry into Jerusalem as we get ready for Jesus triumph over death! Pr. Brian Ward and I share this message.
