The Already and Not Yet - Angel Nalubega

On the Twenty-third Sunday after Pentecost our Director of Youth and Outreach, Angel Nalubega preaches on what it means to live faithfully in a world that feels uncertain and turbulent. Drawing from Isaiah and the Gospel of Luke, we hear the radical promise of God: “I am creating a new heaven and a new earth.” What does that look like when institutions fail, when chaos surrounds us, and when fear threatens to take hold?

This message invites us to see possibility in the midst of upheaval—where old systems crumble, new life emerges. Through stories of mutual aid, acts of love, and glimpses of the Holy Spirit at work, we are reminded that God’s vision of justice and renewal is not a distant dream but something we build together, here and now.
