Join Us for Our Winter Message Series: How To Have An Enemy
You’re invited to join us every Sunday in January and February, for the message series that will take us through the winter season: How To Have An Enemy. It’s against our religion to give up on each other – yet these days, it’s tempting. We nod along when the pastor says “all are beloved” but… what do we do with the neighbor who hates us? How do we respond to the powerful voices that tear us apart? When we name our…
Your Invitation to Our Holiday Message Series: Love the Zone
Join us every Sunday in November and December for the message series that will take us all the way through the holiday season: Love The Zone. There’s an idea you might be familiar with – or feeling the effects of – these days. It’s called “flooding the zone,” and it happens when the headlines are loud, and terrible, and everywhere. In a flood, landmarks and signposts go underwater. Sometimes, so do we. But nobody makes it through a flood by…
How We Show Up
Dear WellSprings, Our community – each of you individually, and all of us collectively – has been so much on my mind and my heart in these past few weeks. When I was preaching two weeks ago, we spent some time reflecting together – and then sharing with each other – about who we are, and how we hope to show up in our world right now. This was no small task… because it is meaningfully difficult to be alive…

Does it hold a grand tale of family migration – or a tribute to an ancestor…
