This 13-day devotion series is focused on the 12 days of Christmas. Rev. Joel Gaertner, Vice President of Ministry, shares the Christian message behind each verse in the rather well-known Christmas carol “The Twelve Days of Christmas.” We hope the following devotional thoughts will help you to keep focusing on God’s gift of his Son as our Savior and all that he means for us and does for us.

This reading plan will address some of the biggest questions about the Christian faith. The answers here will give you a deeper understanding of why Christianity isn’t just like any other religion. They will help you engage with your society in an informed way and deepen your appreciation of what it means to be part of God’s kingdom.

In this reading plan I share my thoughts about Psalm 23. The texts are a meditation on the most emblematic psalm of King David. They contain veritable treasures which are enriched by incredibly powerful visual images. These images are created by Jérémie Roussier and some moved me to tears! Take your time to look at them all! Welcome to this series on Psalm 23!

In this 14 day Bible plan, I want to show you a side of Jesus that we have often been scared to embrace, the Jesus who sends tables and chairs crashing over because he is gripped by a passion to interrupt injustice. The Jesus who parties late at night with the wrong crowd because he is so radically welcoming of those at the bottom of the heap. This is the Jesus who loves justice and compassion.

Jesus is the Lord of your life, with his unlimited offer of salvation, connection and joy.  He is the Creator of all things and the Redeemer of the world. But he is also your Savior, your friend and companion; he is your true ladder between earth and heaven. This reading plan offers you the opportunity to meditate about who Jesus really is, and how you can strengthen your connection to him.

God’s desire for you is one of beauty, dignity, confidence and strength from the inside out. Your true essence should come from Christ alone not a manufacturer’s label. Your hope should not be put in the sizes hanging in the back of your closet. This plan is not just another “how to” plan but a deeper look at God’s grace and hope personally tailored for you.

This reading plan explores the first Gospel. This Gospel explains that Jesus was the king of Jews that brought the kingdom of heaven, even though Jesus didn't arrive in the way people expected.

Many acknowledge stress as a considerable day to day challenge. Pathway to Peace provides a serious and insightful Biblical roadmap to transforming our lives from high stress to a sustainable peace.

Hello and Welcome to a series of reflections called “Doing Theology from below.” These reflections are designed for those who want to explore a way of reading Scripture that is liberating, especially in vulnerable urban communities. Doing Theology from Below is learning how to read the text not “to” not “for” but “with” those we are called to love and serve and to do so with Jesus as our rabbi.

In Revelation, we see Jesus as the “Lion of the tribe of Judah” and the “Lamb who was slain.” So much of God’s kingdom embodies paradox; even Jesus Himself was sovereign AND He submitted to authority. He’s the beginning AND the end. He isn’t relegated to one or the other. Join us for this 14-day study as we learn about how God’s kingdom and character may surprise us.
