Sunday Gathering May 10, 2026 Ryan Kenny (James 1:1-4) Our instinct in a hard season is to look for the exit. But God often does his deepest work on the very road we're trying to skip, shaping in us the kind of people we couldn't become any other way.

Sunday Gathering May 3, 2026 Ryan Kenny (Genesis 2:1-3, Exodus 20:8-11) Everything lands here. If work is bigger than we've been told, if restoration is possible even in broken places, if who you are comes before what you do, what does that actually look like on a Monday morning? This week, we get specific about what a genuinely different relationship with work looks like in practice, and wha...

Sunday Gathering April 26, 2026 Ryan Kenny (Colossians 3:5-14) Most of us are more dependent on our work for our sense of identity than we realize. When it's going well, we feel great. When it isn't, we don't. This week, we look at what happens when you stop letting work tell you who you are, and why getting that order right might be the single most liberating shift available to any...

Sunday Gathering April 19, 2026 Ryan Kenny (Genesis 3, Colossians 1:18-23) Work is hard. That's not your imagination, and it's probably not just your job. This week, we get honest about why work so often feels toilsome, frustrating, and broken, and why the answer isn't a better employer or a different career. More importantly, we explore what it looks like to work faithfully and gen...

Sunday Gathering April 12, 2026 Ryan Kenny (Colossians 1:15-17) The stories our culture tells about work (find your passion, climb the ladder, collect your paycheck) aren't completely wrong. But they're not big enough either. This week, we look at where those stories fall short and introduce a bigger, richer account of what work was actually designed to be and why something in us already...

Sunday Gathering April 5, 2026 (John 20:11-18) Something in us knows the world isn't the way it's supposed to be. Easter isn't just a celebration — it's an answer to that ache. Come explore what the resurrection has to say about our deepest grief and our greatest hope.

Sunday Gathering March 22, 2026 Ryan Kenny (Job 42:1-6) Life has a way of breaking our assumptions. Good people suffer. Hard work doesn’t always pay off. Prayers go unanswered. And when things fall apart, the easy explanations don’t just feel thin—they can feel insulting. The book of Job begins where many of us find ourselves: asking honest questions in the middle of real pain. Not “How do I fix t...

The book of Job begins where many of us find ourselves: asking honest questions in the middle of real pain. Not “How do I fix this...

Sunday Gathering February 15, 2026 Brian Ross (Job 1:1 - 2:7) Life has a way of breaking our assumptions. Good people suffer. Hard work doesn’t always pay off. Prayers go unanswered.

Sunday Gathering February 8, 2026 Ryan Kenny (Jonah 4) Most of us carry questions about God—about what God cares about, how God acts, and what it means to be part of God’s story. Maybe you’ve wondered if faith really makes a difference, if God is active in the world—or if he cares about someone like you. The story of Jonah doesn’t start with tidy answers. It starts with God moving in surprising wa...

Sunday Gathering January 18, 2026 Ryan Kenny (Jonah 2) Jonah’s story doesn’t move forward with obedience, but with a man sinking—cut off, out of options, and facing the consequences of his own running. From the deepest place imaginable, Jonah discovers that no depth is beyond God’s reach, and that rescue begins not with self-reliance, but with a cry for help.

Sunday Gathering January 11, 2026 Ryan Kenny (Jonah 1:4-17) What if the disruptions in our lives aren’t signs that God is angry or absent, but moments of pursuit meant to wake us up? In the story of Jonah, we meet a God who doesn’t give up on people who run, but keeps moving toward them—and invites us to consider how our choices impact the people around us.

Sunday Gathering January 4, 2026 Ryan Kenny (Jonah 1:1-3)

Sunday Gathering November 16, 2025 Ryan Kenny (Matthew 7:13-27) We spend our lives building careers, families, and reputations—only to watch them collapse under pressure. Jesus ends his sermon with a challenge: build your life on him, and you’ll have a foundation that lasts.

Sunday Gathering November 9, 2025 Ryan Kenny (Matthew 7:1-12) We’re quick to point fingers, call people out, or write them off. Jesus confronts our judgment and flips it, inviting us to treat others with the same grace, empathy, and patience we desperately want for ourselves.

Sunday Gathering November 2, 2025 Ryan Kenny (Matthew 6:19-34) Anxiety is at an all-time high, and we’re constantly chasing security through money, possessions, or control. Jesus offers a new way forward—freedom from worry through trust in a God who provides.

Sunday Gathering October 26, 2025 Ryan Kenny (Matthew 6:16-18) Our world screams that more is always better—more food, more comfort, more stuff. But Jesus shows us that stepping back, even through fasting, can break our addictions and free us to actually live.

Sunday Gathering October 19, 2025 Ryan Kenny (Matthew 6:5-15) Prayer often feels like talking to the ceiling, or something only “spiritual people” do. But Jesus reframes it as everyday access to heaven’s resources, right here and now.

Sunday Gathering October 12, 2025 Ryan Kenny (Matthew 6:1-18) We’ve all seen it—the person who does good but makes sure everyone notices. Jesus warns us about turning generosity into self-promotion, pointing instead to a hidden way of living that actually matters.

Sunday Gathering October 5, 2025 Ryan Kenny (Matthew 5:33-48) We live in a world obsessed with image, likes, and carefully managed appearances. But Jesus calls out our endless need to impress, inviting us into a life defined not by approval but by radical honesty and love.

Sunday Gathering September 28, 2025 Ryan Kenny (Matthew 5:21-32) Anger, lust, and broken relationships—these don’t just ruin our lives, they trap us. Jesus cuts to the root, showing how real change happens not by suppressing desire, but by transforming the heart.

Sunday Gathering September 21, 2025 David Parker (Matthew 5:17-20) Religion often feels like a heavy rulebook or a checklist we can’t keep. Jesus shocks the crowd by saying he’s not throwing it out—he’s fulfilling it. He reveals what it looks like to live with integrity, not performance.
