Featured Sunday Reflections
A Serving God
Good Friday of the Lord’s Passion: As Jesus hanged on the cross we are meant to meditate on this event. On how we contribute to his crucifixion with our actions of hate and with our failure to act for justice. On how God willingly came to serve us all the way to the cross, all the while offering love and forgiveness. We all journey to the cross with Jesus but we can either be condemning him, preoccupied with his possessions, or at the side of the cross with him.

Scripture Conversation
Envy is not of God, Mercy is
A conversation on Isaiah 55:6-9 and Matthew 20:1-16

Seeing Jesus Past the Storms
A conversation on 1 Kings 19:9, 11-13 and Matthew 14:22-33
