Luke 1:39-45

"Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb."

Luke 3:1-6

"the word of God came to John son of Zechariah in the wilderness."

John the Baptist might be one of the most underestimated individuals in the scriptures. Every story about John is seemingly pointing toward Jesus. He is a messenger that it’s time to change your heart and life before the arrival of Jesus.

Rev. Adam Kelchner

Luke 21:25-36

"Now when these things begin to take place, stand up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near."

We are entering a season full of anticipation for what God is doing all around us. We can lift our heads and be filled with hope because God’s transforming grace is so close.

Rev. Scott Marshall-Kimball

John 18:33-37

"Jesus answered, 'My kingdom is not from this world. If my kingdom were from this world, my followers would be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jews. But as it is, my kingdom is not from here.' "

The sometimes frustrating yet beautiful truth that Christ is our King and not our Genie.

Rev. Adam Kelchner

Mark 13:1-8

"Then Jesus asked him, 'Do you see these great buildings? Not one stone will be left here upon another; all will be thrown down.' "

Where do you see the houses of widows being eaten up by greed? Predatory lending and unjust housing development is depriving life from the most vulnerable among us.
