Sarah Yotter preaches on doubt. Jesus meets us where we are, not where we think we should be. Like any true relationship, faith holds both confidence and questioning, clarity and confusion — and God's grace is big enough to hold all of it. Our faith was never meant to fit a mold.

Mark Niethammer preaches on Easter Sunday. Nostalgia pulls us toward simpler times — toward safety, toward music and stories we know by heart — because that's where we feel most alive, but life was never buried there. Like the women at the tomb, what we're searching for isn't behind us. Jesus' love propels us forward into forgiveness, new people, new mercy — and a life blooming all around us, if we'll look up from the memory long enough to see it.

Preaching text: Matthew 28:1-10

Sara Olson-Smith preaches on Palm Sunday. Jesus chose humility over power — a donkey, not a warhorse — because his victory could only come through love, not force. In giving himself fully for others, he conquers death and shows us the breadth of his care. That's the invitation for us, too: shift a habit, risk something, live for others — because that's not just sacrifice. That's where joy lives.
