Easter 2022: A story we need to hear


Easter 2022 (April 17, 2022)

In a world swimming with negativity, we hunger for a message of positivity.  Turns out though, we need more than a message of positivity, we need the story of Jesus’ death and resurrection.  For in this story, we can find acknowledgement of our and the world’s sorrows AND hope for God’s Kingdom to break into our lives!

Why am I here?


 Palm Sunday

April 10, 2022

“Why am I here”?  Pastor Rob reflects on our purpose in life by looking — of all places — at the donkey in the story of Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem.  Where do you sense God calling you — claiming a need for your heart and your gifts?  And where in your life do you find yourself calling out, proclaiming “Lord, I need you!”

Do you believe in miracles

 


Lent 5 (April 3, 2022)

Do you believe in miracles?  I reflect on the miracles of Abraham’s journey.  I argue the biggest miracle is that God chooses to be faithful and love them, in spite of all they do.  A reminder that in our lives, God shows up too!

The image is from my bible, where he keeps the four leaf clover from the day of his grandmother’s funeral.
