Connecting Across: Abilities - Ken Wetmore Each of us has been created uniquely. That means we all have different abilities. When abilities differ from the norm, exclusion can happen intentionally and, more often, unintentionally. As Christians, we are called to remove barriers and value each person just as they were created. So, let’s talk about connecting with those who have abilities that are n...

Connecting Across: Religious Beliefs - Ken Wetmore Religion is known for dividing. Whether it is Christians vs. Muslims or Catholics vs. Protestants, there is a strong tendency to not connect with people who do not share our beliefs about God. Is it possible to connect with another person who holds religious beliefs that conflict with our beliefs? Is that even what God wants? Making the connection...

Connecting Across: Hurt - Justin Schleuter It can feel impossible to connect with someone who has hurt us. Does God want us to connect with people who have hurt us, people who are still hurting us? Christians struggle with the answer to these questions because the answers aren’t easy. With that said, some of the most challenging questions yield the richest results when we take the time and effort...

Connecting Across: Cultures - Freud Braz Culture is the way a collective group of people have decided to do life. As anyone who has traveled extensively knows, there are a lot of different ways to do life. At WholeLife we have a lot of different cultures represented. Ideas about what is good food, what is good music, and even what is good Theology are influenced by the culture we were raised in. I...

Connecting Across: Socioeconomic Differences - Ken Wetmore Social class and income keep people apart. Whether it’s jealousy or condescension, we often have a hard time connecting with people who aren’t in the same social and economic class. Jesus seemed to move easily between a wide variety of socioeconomic classes, and the New Testament Church was known for being one body. So, how do we do that t...

Connecting Across: When You Don’t Have That Loving Feeling - Ken Wetmore The truth is there are people who haven’t done anything wrong to us that we just don’t enjoy being around. So what do you do when you don’t “feel” love for someone. This sermon explores what God wants us to do when we don’t feel love or a connection with another person. Let us know your thoughts by reaching out and joining th...

In The Wrong Place at the Wrong Time - Andreas Beccai There are times in our lives when we wonder if we're in the wrong place. Simon the Cyrene must have thought that, but in Christ, we have hope that our accidental and sometimes painful involvements in circumstances beyond our control can be a prize and not a punishment.  Let us know your thoughts by reaching out and joining the conversation...

Come and See: What God Can Do - Ken Wetmore The wise men were unexpected. No one in Israel would have thought that pagan astrologers would be among the first to recognize and greet the Messiah.
