Through Thomas’ doubt, Philip’s confusion, and Jesus’ response of kindness, we discover a God who meets us not with precision or perfection, but with presence. This talk invites us to see that faith is not what we think—it’s what we trust ourselves to.

Bobbi shares her personal journey and the exciting news of leading the new Marda Loop Commons parish launching in late 2026.

In this sermon from our Grounded series, we unpack Jesus’ words in the Sermon on the Mount: “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.”

In this sermon from our Grounded series, we explore the story of the Emmaus Road in Luke 24, where the risen Jesus walks with two disciples who don’t recognize him at first. What if faith isn’t just about ideas or passion, but about centering everything on Jesus?

We explore Luke's account of Jesus being anointed by a woman, contrasting it with versions in Mark, Matthew, and John. The message delves into Luke's unique perspective, highlighting Jesus' point about forgiveness and love, and poses a key question: "Do you see this woman?" We consider how we learn faith from others and the particularity of our own spiritual journeys, emphasizing that our passions make our community and the world brighter.

We all know him as “Doubting Thomas”—but is that really fair? In this teaching, we take a closer look.

If you’ve ever wrestled with questions, wondered if doubt disqualifies you, or longed for proof that God’s promises are real—this message is for you.
