June 9, 2024 | Bobby Harrison | Matthew 11:28-30 This past Sunday, I shared with our familia that I will be transitioning out of my role as Co-Lead Pastor. If you missed the message, I believe watching and hearing the story will be most helpful in holding the sacredness of the story. I also […]
March 24, 2024 | Bobby Harrison | Mark 11 In our bilingual Palm Sunday service, we reimagined the biblical narrative of Jesus riding in on a donkey through the eyes of a little girl and her family. May this immersive, imaginative tale bring new eyes and ears to a familiar pillar of our Easter […]
October 1, 2023 | Bobby Harrison | Matthew 1-2 We look at the story of Joseph, Mary, and Jesus as they are forced to migrate over 1,200 miles over the course of three years. And in their perilous journey, we find glimpses of our stories of movement. All the while reflecting on how God’s […]
June 25, 2023 | Bobby Harrison | Acts 16 We look at the story of Paul and Silas in Acts 16 to see how the Spirit is moving them to unveil a more expansive vision of the gospel than most of us inherited growing up. It’s right in line with Jesus’ call in Luke […]
April 9, 2023 | Bobby Harrison | John 20:1-18 In this Easter sermon, we followed the footsteps of Mary Magdalene as she bravely stayed at the tomb, even as others had fled. We also took note of Mary’s courage in looking into the tomb and we’re invited to look into the tombs of our […]

February 5, 2023 | Bobby Harrison | Exodus 3 In this sermon, we look at a very familia story — Moses and the Burning Bush. But we do so through an entirely new lens: God is on fire. We take time to ask why God is on fire in the first place in this story. […]
January 15, 2023 | Bobby Harrison | Matthew 2:22-36 As we continue in our Rhythms of Justice series, we look at Peter’s “desperate” prayer in Matthew 14. And in so doing, we allow ourselves to be inspired to cry out to God in our desperate places just as Peter did to Jesus.
March 13, 2022 | Bobby Harrison | Genesis 22:1-14 We look at the story of God’s call to Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac. And we consider this story as a way to consider our own faith stories of Construction, Deconstruction, and Reconstruction.
Teaching from 1 Kings 18:23-39 Pastor Gail Song Bantum shows us that Elijah was a human being like us, yet he was desperate and gritty as he called out to God, “Answer me, oh God!” He drenches the altar with water three times in faith because he knew God begins at impossible.
