The Story of Pentecost

Sacred Space.

May 31, 2020 • Brian Erickson

How do we learn to be called by the spirit to spread the love and the good news while we cannot gather together in a single space? How do we focus on being the church while not being within the church? How can finding God in our solace and isolation be more meaningful than depending on a space to worship in?

Ascension Sunday

May 24, 2020 • Brian Erickson

It's hard to know what to do with this story of Jesus's ascension into heaven. His sticking around the disciples in the Easter season, it was never meant to be permanent. When we understand that God's grace and mercy is with us, it gives us a certain clarity to deal with life without the physical presence of Jesus on Earth. Jesus's ascension gives us joy as to what is to come because we know he is in control.

The Great Commission

What do we do when Jesus isn't in a visible, physical state beside us? When he raises from the dead and ascends into heaven, how do we continue on with what we have seen, learned, and marveled at? How do we conduct ourselves?

Paul's Gospel To The Corinthians

May 10, 2020 • Brian Erickson

In Paul's letter to the Corinthians, he speaks about all of the faults and issues he has with the way they are dealing with faith. Most importantly, he is most concerned about the way they have watered down the gospel he has preached to them. Paul wants to hand on the good news of what we have received. It's so inconceivable, that we need to be reminded of it every time we gather because it's almost too good to be true. It is an eternal hope. What you believe matters.
