Most of us are afraid to acknowledge our fear. That's too bad. Coming face to face with fear is one of the most holy things we can do. Jonathan Williams, founding pastor, continues our Advent series Insisting on Hope.

Rhema explores the crucial difference between our rigid expectations of how God should act and the resilient nature of true hope. We will walk from Galilee to Nairobi and Rome to see how God often brings renewal through small, unexpected seeds rather than the grand victories we plan for. So maybe it's time to let go of our vision board and open our eyes to the quiet, redemptive work God is doing right now in the wilderness.

Our Deacon of Storytelling, Theon, begins our “Insisting on Hope” sermon series exploring how hope arrives disguised as invitations, breath, movement, and sometimes simply as survival.

As he concludes our Liberated Faith series, Kevin Singh reminds us that Jesus invites us into a comfort rooted in God, not in avoiding hard conversations. This week’s sermon challenges us to see how empire has shaped our faith and how holy discomfort leads us toward justice, healing, and liberation. Please note, there is no audio for approximately the first 5 minutes.
