What do we do with the tension of Easter Sunday?

Mo Money, Mo Problems

April 3, 2022 • Royce Yuen

The rich man asked Jesus, “Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” Jesus looked at him, he felt love for him and said, “You lack one thing. Go, sell whatever you have and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

Transformation Over Tradition

To the degree that traditions, beliefs, practices, even interpretation of scripture hinder the flourishing of a person, they are to be denounced, and laid aside.

Jesus on the Margins

Jesus was constantly found loving those on the margins of society, and at times, even prioritizing those on the margins. What would it look like for us as the church today to do the same, as followers of the Way?

We often define success as more, bigger and faster. But the way of Jesus seems to prioritize less over more, smaller over bigger, and slower over faster.

Jesus People

What does it mean to be Jesus people? Scripture reminds us that titles, labels and blood lineage are not the things that make us part of God's family, but following the way of Jesus and working for God's Kingdom are.

A Rebel with a Cause

Jesus and the Kingdom of God

February 6, 2022 • Royce Yuen

Reclaiming Jesus and the way of Jesus requires that we expand our understanding of who Jesus is and what Jesus came to do. The Gospel of Mark reminds us that Jesus came to do so much more than forgive us of our sins so we can go to heave one day, but Jesus came to embody the very Kingdom of God.
