What Do You Fear? | The Lord is With You, Pastor Yumiko (12.14.2025)
In this Advent sermon, we read the story of Mary, the mother of Jesus. We often imagine Mary as brave, obedient, or fearless. But Luke shows us someone confused, disturbed, and unsure — who still steps into God’s story with clarity and courage. Placed side-by-side with Zechariah’s story, Mary’s call becomes a window into God’s Kingdom: a Kingdom where grace breaks boundaries, finds people in surprising places, and meets us exactly as we are. Join us as we look for God’s voice, God’s invitation, and God’s presence this Advent season. (Luke 1:26-39,)

Still Called to Not Hide Our Weakness - Pastor Rebecca (11.2.2025)
When weakness shows up in our lives, we often try to hide it. But what if God’s grace and power are drawn there - to the very places we feel frail, unwell, or not enough? Through story & scripture, pastor Rebecca invites us to see our low places as holy ground where God’s power comes to rest. (2 Corinthians 8:1-15)

May Irwin’s story remind you that no journey is too far for God to meet you and lead you home.
Still Called - The Great House of Reconciliation - Pastor Yumiko (10.12.2025)
What if reconciliation isn’t something you have to do — but a house already built for you to live in? Drawing from 2 Corinthians 5:14–20, we’ll see that God’s work of reconciliation isn’t a checklist to complete, but a love to inhabit. Whether you’re exploring faith or have lived in this “house” for years, this sermon is an invitation to move in, make it home, and let love shape the way you live.
