Today, we continue our annual focus on generosity. This year’s theme is "The Inside-Out Life." In this sermon on Matthew 21:33-46, Pastor Paige continues to explore what it means to share God’s generosity with our neighbors. The life that Jesus gives us is not a life of selfishness, but one of sacrifice and sharing. When we give back to God from what God has first given us, we experience joy and we bless the world around us, in Jesus’ name.

Today, we begin our annual focus on generosity. The theme this year is "The Inside-Out Life," grounded in today's reading from the famous "Christ hymn" in Philippians 2:1-13. The life that Jesus gives us is not a life of grasping and gaining, but one of sacrifice and giving. Being turned inside out does not leave us empty, though, but opens us up to God's highest purposes for our lives.

In today's first reading (Genesis 50:15-21), we hear the end of the story of Joseph, the favorite son of Jacob who rose from slavery and prison in Egypt to become the Pharaoh's most powerful advisor. Betrayed by his brothers, falsely accused of a crime he never committed, forgotten by those he helped, he still came to a place of forgiveness and peace. He saw how his struggles and suffering were used by God to save countless lives during a devastating famine. What can he teach us about trials, forgiveness, and the work of God?

How can we find joy in life? Not passing happiness, not amusement, but joy? Today's Gospel, Matthew 16:21-28, sure doesn't seem like it deals with joy. Jesus "must" suffer, die, and rise again? We are called to deny ourselves and take up our crosses? Where's the joy in this? In today's sermon, though, Pastor Eric will show how this passage really does point us to joy, and how, in fact, the key to joy is shaped like a cross.

Have you ever felt like you were facing an impossible task? Have you ever asked God to just take one thing off your plate? While it is true that God does promise us rest, sometimes, things are a little more complicated. In today's sermon, based on Matthew 14:13-21, Pastor Eric explores the story of "the feeding of the 5,000." Here, Jesus intentionally gave his disciples in an impossible task, and then showed them how, when we feel completely inadequate to the situation, we can entrust ourselves to his grace, and he will give the impossible.

"Everything happens for a reason," we sometimes say, with the unspoken part being "and that reason must be good, even if we can't see it." But is that really what the Bible tells us? In today's sermon, based on Romans 8:26-39, Pastor Eric helps us to see a much greater hope in the promise that "all things work together for good for those who love God."

Jesus continues to teach and preach about the kingdom of heaven in today's reading from Matthew 13:24-30 & 36-43. Today, he uses a parable with a rich image of weeds and wheat growing together in the same field. In the sermon, Pastor Paige explores what this parable teaches us about God's actions and God's character. She also asks listeners to consider how our faith in Jesus helps us live with the intermingling of wheat and weeds, or joys and hardships, that we face.

An old joke goes, “I love sinning; God loves forgiving; he and I get along quite well!” We sense in our guts that's not right. But we still feel a tension, don't we? Maybe it's the worry that too much forgiveness means God is like an indulgent parent raising spoiled children. Or maybe it's the sense that we know that Jesus sets us free from sin, but we still end up doing things we shouldn't, and not doing things we should. In today's sermon based on Romans 6:1-11, Pastor Eric leads us through how the Apostle Paul wrestled with these questions, offering us a new way to think about our life of faith.

In today's Gospel reading from Matthew 9:25-10:8, Jesus notices how the people he ministers to are in desperate need of leadership and direction. He commissions his disciples to go from being observers to being his ambassadors to those in need of hope and healing. In this sermon, Pastor Paige invites listeners to consider how God can use them as raw materials for discipleship and for sharing the good news of the gospel. After the sermon, we joyfully present Senior Quilts to our congregation's high school graduates from the Class of 2026.

What can we do? In a world threatened by war, a society divided by partisanship and lies, and a culture driven by self-indulgence, what can Christians do? On the festival of Pentecost, we remember the sending of the Holy Spirit on the first Christians. With the Spirit came power and purpose for a tiny band of believers to change the course of history. So the question isn't "what can we do," but rather, "What will the Holy Spirit do through us?" Today's sermon, based on Numbers 11, Acts 2, and John 20, will bring challenge and encouragement.

Jesus is Lord! On this seventh and last Sunday of the Easter season, we are in between the time of Christ's Ascension (this past Thursday) and the sending of the Holy Spirit. It is a good time to admit that sometimes, it feels like Jesus isn't Lord. That he isn't around. In this sermon based on 1 Peter 4 & 5 and John 17, Pastor Eric helps us find encouragement and strength when life looks like Jesus isn't in charge. Jesus is never absent, never far away, especially in life's challenges.

If, as Christians believe, Jesus truly is God, and if his resurrection from the dead is the best and most important news in all of history, how will the world ever know? And, more than "know" about him, how will they ever encounter Jesus? In today's sermon based on First Peter 2:1-10, Pastor Eric invites us to discover how God calls us, the community of Christians, to be the place where Jesus shows up for the sake of the world.
