No partiality. Really?
Matt’s message is rooted in Acts 10 and the conversion & faith of Peter. How will we be transformed to see God’s boundary crossing love that shows no partiality? How will we come to the table to weave our hearts with others as we break bread? How will these tranformations shape the ways we practice our faith in the world?
Christmas Eve
Matt’s message for our 11pm Candlelight Christmas Eve worship was rooted in Luke 2.1-20. God’s message came to the shepherds…to those who had given up on being inside. God’s message comes today to those who’ve given up on being inside as well, even to those who’ve given up on God.
