We are called to be a community of people who are there for each other, in gratitude and devotion to the One who is always there for us.

A story about Jean and a panhandler named Ron.

The “Saints” are not people who are exceptionally good; they’re people who trust God to be exceptionally good. This trust fills their lives with God’s light.

The whole point of our religion is simply to become more loving. This is our true “Reformation.” It begins in letting God love us as God does: deeply, steadfastly, viscerally, fiercely, no matter what.

We belong to God. The purpose of life is to give ourselves back.

The ten Commandments are not laws we have to follow or be punished. They’re a description of what it looks like to live in Covenant with God– like marriage vows.

God never leaves anybody out. Our ministry is to include those whom society has excluded. That work starts within, as we acknowledge and overcome our own exclusions.

Faith is a life-long process of learning to let go and trust God to love us, accompany us, care for us and provide for us, regardless of our sense of “deserving.” Trust that God wants you to thrive.
