Palm Sunday

April 2, 2023

April 2, 2023 • Rev. Amanda Meade • Matthew 21:1–11

Give

This week we celebrated Palm Sunday, Jesus' triumphant entry to Jerusalem, also a political satire of the traditional parades by Rome. His crowd was full of children, shouting, waving palms celebrating Jesus and the kingdom he was showing them was possible, a humble one where children are deeply valued. They saw him turn the tables on the current economic, religious, and political systems of the day for their protection, they also saw how the powers that be responded to that challenge. Our children are watching and listening to what we do and don't do for them and God's kingdom. Let's make sure we are also in the crowd following Jesus.

Grief and Good News

March 26, 2023 • Rev. Amanda Meade • John 11:1–45

We know we are getting close to Holy Week, when death is staring us in the face, like in the story of Lazarus. A story about how differently we each respond to grief and the good news, and how Jesus walks with us in our grief but continues to promise life with him too.

Seeing God's Glory

March 19, 2023 • John 9

This week we explored the story of the blind man being healed, and how everyone around him just wanted to point fingers and find out who to judge. What if instead, we spent our time, pointing at Jesus, in awe and wonder, seeing the light he brings to the world. How have we gotten to see God's glory, through Jesus in our own lives, in our church and in the world?

The Scandal of the Cross

March 12, 2023 • Rev. Amanda Meade • Matthew 5:21–37

This week we left Nicodemus in the dark to meet the Samaritan woman in broad daylight and that's not the only scandalous thing we discovered in her conversation with Jesus. Jesus revealed that he died not just for people like Nicodemus who society revers but also for Samaritans, women and people with complicated histories that are shamed or reviled or rejected. The scandal of the cross is not who is left out, but who Jesus includes! Even us!
