Death can make us all uncomfortable. Grief can make us sad, angry, and frustrated. Those closest to Jesus abandoned and denied him at the time of His death. Even though He was dying for them. Jesus welcomed the grieving and spent time with them. Pastor Anthony explains how pushing past our own discomfort helps us grow closer to others and might just lead us to encounter Jesus.

Aligning with the our value of Revolutionary Justice, Daniel preaches about how we're called to turn away from anti-Semitism.

Pastor Anthony helps to explain the history of Christian Zionism and the connection and impact it still has today. This complex topic deserves our attention and care as we work to live out a more beautiful gospel.

Genesis 11: 1-9
 
Through the story of the Tower of Babel, Heidi helps to reveal human tendencies and the warnings we can take as we discuss the ideologies we’re stealing away from as a church. The Tower of Babel becomes a metaphor for the structures of supremacy that we build in a modern world. Heidi quotes Sam Killermann in giving examples of Christian privilege. Even if we don’t think about them, we can still benefit from the systems in our country where Christianity is embedded. 
 
Naming Christian supremacy requires us to confront our own relationship with power. Heidi then shows us how we can use this story to repair and make meaningful changes to dismantle the tower of Christian supremacy. God deliberately creates all the languages in the world which is a powerful image of God creating and celebrating diversity.
