Story Telling | Winter 2025 @ Peace Most of us have heard the stories of Adam & Eve, David & Goliath, and Jesus Walking on Water. We've grown up on these stories and they've shaped our faith from a young age. But when was the last time we explored the most common stories of the Bible? Too often, we hear these stories as kids and then we move on to the less recognizable stories or the more...

In the Fullness of Time... The birth of Jesus came 'in the fullness of time'...in other words...when the time was pregnant. The world was ready for a disruption and a new way.  So what does it mean to be in a season of preparation and expectation, as we are invited to bring Christ into the world?  We will explore these ideas by looking at the themes of Growing, Waiting, Expecting, Preparing, and B...

"If it wasn't for the women..." This phrase was uttered at the end of a long discussion about the grieving mother Rizpah. A group of pastors had discussed the tragic story of Rizpah's great loss and her courage to model love and justice in the face of great political and personal turmoil. And at the end, a hush came over the group as we sat in the midst of her story, thinking about the reality...'...

The Bible is an incredibly political book. From kings and their kingdoms to prophets speaking truth to power. From a God who liberates the oppressed to a Jesus killed on a Roman cross. What might the stories we find in Scripture be inviting us into this fall?

This summer at Peace we will focus on spiritual training. Like our physical bodies need exercise and proper nutrition, our spiritual lives need to be built up. The Apostle Paul talks about training to win the race (1 Corinthians 9:24-27).  What does it mean to win? How do we train? How should we run? Pastor and author, Gary Thomas, wrote a book called Sacred Pathways , describing and outlining nin...

Lessons in the Leaves |  In this final sermon of our series: Lessons in the Leaves, we dive into the story of Jesus cursing the fig tree. Why does Jesus do this? It seems like such an odd thing for him to do. Is there a lesson he was teaching people in that moment? Could that lesson still resonate with us today? In addition, this was CONFIRMATION SUNDAY. At 18:51 you can hear a little about each o...
