LIFE:TIME
Fall 2018 Series
MONEY, POWER, PROTEST, PRIVILEGE
November 11, 2018 • Terry Kyllo
Pastor Terry Kyllo preaches on the parable of the Widow's mite. It's a surprising story that challenges us to examine our own points of privilege and power, especially when we are unaware of how unjust systems benefit those in power, and push down those who are in the minority. Where does Jesus stand?
WHO IS IN, WHO IS OUT?
November 4, 2018 • Katy McCallum-Sachse
The parable of the great banquet ends in a strange and violent way. It causes us to raise our eyebrows and wonder how this is Good News? Guest preacher Katy McCallum Sachse invites us to recognize the character of God in this parable as something that is truly surprising.
FROM THE ARCHIVES: REFORMATION - THEOLOGY OF THE CROSS
October 28, 2018 • Sara Wolbrecht
Reformation Sunday was this past Sunday and we spent the day watching football and praying for one another. We're sharing a sermon from last year that was originally preached on Oct. 29, 2017 by Sara Wolbrecht during our Chunk of Change fall series. _______________________________________________________ At Salt House we believe in radical inclusivity - any and all people are welcome, especially because of the diversity they bring to our community. We believe this stance to be congruent with the revolutionary love of Jesus, as well as the reforming work of Martin Luther - a Roman Catholic friar who, 500 years ago next week, on October 31, 1517, began a revolution that forever changed the trajectory of the western church. This Sunday, we'll acknowledge this historical moment and explore what it means that Salt House is in fact a Lutheran (Evangelical Luthern Church in America) church - and why that matters for us as people who are changed to bring change in our world today, together.
LECTIO DIVINA - JOHN 15
September 30, 2018 • Sara Wolbrecht
Our conversation of engaging in relationship continues Sunday as we experience our relationship "UP" with God in the ancient practice of Lectio Divina. Lectio Divina helps us to pay attention to the intersection of the Bible with the present reality of our lives. We make space to listen together.
RYAN'S STORY - BODY, MIND, SOUL
September 23, 2018 • Ryan Phillips
Ryan is currently a medical student at Bastyr University. He grew up in an Evangelical home got many (mixed) messages about what the Bible says about our bodies. As his faith has grown through a diversity of experiences, so has his understanding of the connections between body, mind, and spirit. Even so, he still has many, many questions.

LIFE:TIME TRAILER
Time. We view it as a commodity. We say things like, "I don't have time" or "we have all the time in the world." And yet, there is a deeper reality. Life is more than just one moment blurring into the next. There are moments of significance - God infused moments - that catch our attention, give us pause, and change us. The time we have is our life. Let's pay attention to the moments that make us who we are, together.
