No One Knows

Pastor Barb brings a message from Matthew 24:1-7, 36-44. We reflect on the Mennonites' Great Trek through Asia, a faithful journey and a disappointed prediction. While scripture tells us that no one will know the date of Christ's return, we recognize the call to love our neighbors in the meantime.

Lean into Shame

Pastor Caley brings us a message from 2 Timothy 1:1-14. Paul offers Timothy and the church a word of encouragement in the face of their shame. Timothy is shamed by his youth, and the church is shamed by being perceived as an assortment of superstitions. Do not apologize for your weakness and shame; instead, lean into it.

Be My People

Pastor Jon brings a message from Revelation 21:1-8 and Joel 2:18-27. This is the fourth Sunday of creation, focused on the theme of redemption. Our scriptures were written in the context of grief, stemming from a sense of God's absence. Into this grief comes a cathartic, over-the-top vision of how the world could be better, shocking us out of our stupor. Let us gather to let visions of a new heaven and a new earth wash over us.

Three-Fold Covenant

Pastor Jonathan brings us a message from Genesis 9:1-17. God has made a threefold covenant with humans and all creatures. What is a covenant in the Bible? How do we make a covenant with all living creatures? Let us learn from the creatures around us and love our neighbors of water, earth, and sky.

Created Good

Pastor Caley brings a message from Genesis 1 and Job 38-40. What would it mean if we took seriously the goodness of creation? Would we see ourselves as members of creation, called to live within our limits? Would we seek after God in the beauty of creation?

Even in Parched Places

Pastor Barb brings a message from Isaiah 58:9-14. The prophet proclaims that God will not listen to our pious praise until it is met with justice. Let our worship of God not end with hymns or scripture, but with loving our neighbor whom God loves.

The Race of Faith

Pastor Caley brings a message from Hebrews 11:29-12:2. What does it mean for us to follow in a long line of faith keepers? We recognize that being faithful is difficult, the old faithkeepers like Abraham never saw the fruits of the promise. How can we back look at their wandering in the wilderness as faithful if they did not achive anythinng? Furthermore, Jesus is the guide for our faith, showing the example of facing percecution head on and living faithfully even though he was not universally accepted.


August 10, 2025

Judgment Day is Today

Pastor Jonathan brings a message from Isaiah 1:1, 10-20. The Day of the Lord is a complex concept where God intervenes to bring blessing and devastation. Isaiah saw tragedy for Israel if they continued oppressing the most vulnerable people in their society. How do we envision God’s judgment in our world?

What is Baptism?

Misconduct Abroad

Pastor Jonathan brings us a message from Genesis 20. Abraham is lying, saying Sarah is his sister to save his own skin. Yet, God intercedes to protect Sarah, and King Abimelech welcomes them both to settle in the land. In a world of unfaithful exclusion, let us be faithful in our welcoming.

Does this look straight to you?

Pastor Caley takes us through Amos 7:7-17. Amos receives a vision from God that Israel is no longer true to itself and must be torn down. This is because the wealth of the nation is distributed unevenly, and the economy is not working for everyone. God’s grace and God’s love of justice cannot be separated.

A Shattered Soul

Pastor Jonathan takes us through Psalm 42, a Psalm of Lament. As a community, we have gone through young lives ending far too soon. So now it is time to lament, to go through the process of grief, and to realize the power that we have to hurt and heal. Please, my siblings in Christ, let us bear each other’s burdens.

Love and Passions

Pastor Jonathan brings a message from Galatians 5: 1, 13-25. What community expectations will we keep and what will we let go of? We explore how Paul experiences this new freedom from circumcision, but is still bound by the fruits of the spirit and right relationship with others in the community. What is the meaning behind our ethics? Let us continue to take ethics seriously.

Identity and Power

Pastor Jon brings a message from Galatians 3:23-29. How do our identities, be that through family relations or demographic markers like race and gender, become shortcuts for trusting people based on their immutable characteristics? Instead of getting hung up on these arbitrary identities, Paul encourages us to look first at how we are all clothed in Christ, children of God, and co-heirs to the promise of relationship with God.

Romans 5:1-5 — Obtaining Right Relationship — Pastor Caley Ortman

How will Paul bring together the divided church of Rome? By naming how God reaches out God's hand first to walk alongside the faithful and flawed community of Jesus followers. So let us walk with God faithfully despite the afflictions we feel now, because those are birth pangs of a better world.

Genesis 11:1-9 — From One Family to Many — Pastor Jonathan Mark

The Tower of Babel is often deployed as a warning against human pride to build a great work without God. However, we could also interpret this story as a celebration of our God-given diversity. We are different, but we all come from the same human family.

Ephesians 1:15-23 — Perception and Conviction — Pastor Jonathan Mark

Acts 11:1-18 — “No One is Unclean” — Pastor Jonathan Mark

When Peter saw a vision of God making animals clean, he saw God inviting the Gentile Cornelius into the family of God. Let us consider how we can put aside our own ideas of how certain categories of people are clean or unclean.

Acts 6:1—7:2a, 51-60 — Identity, Story and Transformation — Pastor Barb Ewy

Here we learn about the division of labor so widows can be cared for, the false witnesses against Stephen, and his execution. As we consider this text, let us remember that Stephen was a Jew following the path of Jewish prophets who challenged fellow believers to live into their shared principles.

Luke 24:1-12 — Hope Against Hope — Pastor Jonathan Mark

Can you understand the disappointment of something not going your way after you put so much effort into it? After the crucifixion, the disciples had little hope. Yet, in the resurrection, they learned a hope rooted in determination rather than an expectation of future events. No matter how bad things get, let us follow the women by going to the tomb with spices.

Luke 16:19-33 — “Look into my eyes” — Pastor Jonathan Mark

Pastor Jon brings a message from Luke 16:19-33. Today, we look at the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. I wonder if the rich man is in agony because he did not look into Lazarus's eyes, did not recognize his humanity, and still considers him a servant rather than a fellow human being.

2 Corinthians 7:8-11 — Confess and Mobilize — Pastor Caley Ortman

This passage is about the difference between Godly grief and worldly grief. Godly grief leads to transformation and justice, yet worldly grief is futile. As Anabaptists, let us seek the confession that leads to action, and dismiss the sorrow of self-pity.

Joel 2:1-11; Ecclesiastes 9:2-4; Matthew 5:43-48; “An Act of God” — Pastor Jonathan Mark

How should Christians react to a natural disaster? When we turn to the Bible, we find two visions of how God brings disaster: God the Judge and God of the Wind. God the Judge brings justice upon the wicked, but is overflowing with mercy and love. God of the Wind is beyond human understanding, humbling anyone who claims to know God’s mind or who God would punish.

Luke 2:41-52 — The Completing Power of Incarnation — Pastor Caley Ortman

Luke 2:21–38 — Glad Tidings with a Caveat — Pastor Barb Ewy

We shall explore how Jesus went through the Jewish rites of passage: circumcision, name giving, and redemption of the firstborn. Embedded within these rituals is the prophecy that Jesus will be a divisive figure. Turning the world upside down invites opposition and Simeon is wise enough to recognize what is coming. What is good news to the poor, the dispossessed, the powerless, is often bad news to the powerful, the well fed and the wealthy Let us explore these glad tidings!

Luke 1:26-55 — The Great Reversal - Pastor Jonathan Mark

The gospel of Luke brings an orderly account of the conception of Jesus, one that highlights Mary's song of grand revolt, where the tyrants shall be torn down from their thrones and the lonely (like Mary) will be lifted up. Let us consider how the Bible talks about reversals in personal terms, meaning the personal is the political.

Let’s learn about how the King threw Daniel into the lion’s den, becasue he prayed to God. To be clear, this sermon is about Daniel's crime of praying to God in the privacy of his own home. We also remember the Anabaptist tradition of facing persecution for refusing to baptize their children. So, let us explore what it means to be ungovernable and follow our consciences.

Jesus is the high priest, holy and blameless, and he brings himself as a sacrifice for the forgiveness of the sins of all people. This sermon focuses on how we have approached God in varied ways through the millennia, such as music, scripture and communion. Yet before the destruction of the second temple, the primary way to approach God was through animal sacrifice. After the temple's destruction, Hebrews asks how we can approach God.
