Conversation 8: Jesus and #Hashtags 2

March 3, 2019 • Rev. Monty C. Wright

Jesus and #Hastags 2 is the last Sunday conversation in the Ripples series that addresses topics such as #metoo, #churchtoo, and #wecandobetter. Pastor Monty started this conversation with a quote from a post this week from author Sarah Bessey, who said, “Patriarchy is not God’s dream for humanity.” This leads to the question, what is God’s intended purpose for us? To hear the answer to this question, listen to conversation 8, Jesus and #Hastags 2.

Conversation five is about the Fifth Gospel, the story we tell with our lives. Pastor Monty said, “Most people will never read Matt, Mark, Luke, or John, but will understand the Gospel because of how you live it out.” It is the story of Jesus in our lives that He will use to bless the world and cultivate the kingdom of God.

Conversation 4: Jesus & Hashtags Part 1

February 3, 2019 • Rev. Monty C. Wright

Jesus & #hashtags Part 1 is the fourth Sunday conversation in the Vision 2019 series. The inspiration for this message comes from some of the hashtags we have seen in culture that divide us. The question for us to consider is whether God is pleased with how we are loving our neighbors? In this message, Pastor Monty interviews two members of our congregation to help us navigate this discussion on race relations and reconciliation, and how we can lean forward to heal the brokeness when we exclude others.

Conversation 3: Unfixed Beauty

January 27, 2019 • Rev. Monty C. Wright

Unfixed Beauty is the third conversation in the Ripples series is it is a story that we enter that is a bit messy. Life is a mess at times, and God can use this “unfixedness” to draw us closer to Him. In this message, Pastor Monty walks us through the messy story of Zacchaeus where Jesus brings a healing to substantially deeper to wounds than what you may observe in a casual reading. The Lord desires to do this for us as well and to hear more, listen to conversation three, Unfixed Beauty.
