Revelation is not about decoding the future. It is about seeing the present clearly through the resurrection of Jesus.

Each post-resurrection story shares at least one thing, whoever Jesus appears to does not recognize him...

A Good Friday liturgy of the cross.

Week 5 – Mercy in the Shadows Apprentice: The Thief Text: Luke 23:39–43 Not every apprentice has years of formation. Some begin at the edge. Even here, love can awaken. Even here, mercy speaks. Apprenticeship sometimes begins at the end. Practice: Pray for someone who feels far from faith.

Apprentice: Mary of Bethany Text: John 12:1–8 She wastes perfume. She ignores calculation. She loves without restraint. Apprenticeship grows bold. Love becomes embodied. It becomes generous. Practice: Give something costly this week without announcing it.

Apprentice: Peter at the Fire Text: Luke 22:54–62 Peter loves Jesus. Peter swore loyalty. Peter denies Him three times. Love is practiced. The pilgrimage gives room to get it wrong. Failure is not the end of apprenticeship. Under pressure, we discover what shapes us. But Jesus’ gaze meets Peter not with rejection, but with invitation. Practice: Reflect on a moment you failed someone you love. Bring it to Jesus without defending yourself.

Week 2 – The Weight We Cannot Carry Apprentice: The Rich Young Ruler Text: Mark 10:17–31 He runs to Jesus. He kneels. He wants eternal life. But he cannot release what anchors him. Apprenticeship exposes attachments. You can follow closely and still cling tightly. Love matures through surrender. Practice: Name what feels hardest to release. Pray honestly about it all week.

Week 1 – Conceived in the Dark  Apprentice: Nicodemus Text: John 3:1–8 Nicodemus comes at night. Curious. Confused. Reputable but searching. Apprenticeship begins in questions, not certainty. New birth cannot be mastered. Following Jesus means entering mystery. Practice: Ten minutes of silence each night. Let questions surface.

For Jesus, the center of everything was His relationship with the Father.

Jesus brings His Kingdom.

Youth Pastor Wyatt teaches on Matthew 3:13-17. Before Jesus acts publicly, he is named beloved. Belonging becomes the foundation from which faithfulness grows.

Jesus reveals a different vision of power — one that restores rather than dominates, and leads through proximity rather than control.

Epiphany Revelation: God is no longer encountered in one location, but among people. Key Shift: Worship becomes relational and portable (here is why that matters)  God’s presence moves into everyday life (access means) Anchor Idea: After Jesus, the sacred is no longer confined to places—it is carried by people.

Life with God is no longer organized primarily around adherence, but relationship.

When Jesus names the moment as today, he declares that reality itself has changed. After Jesus, God’s work is no longer only anticipated—it is unfolding now.

The good news of the manger!

The love of God doesn’t hover above the cold; it moves in. The Incarnation is divine warmth taking human form.

Our brother James Colaw brings our week 3 sermon of advent, Joy.

The world’s false peace is control. The peace of Christ is restoration. The Prince of Peace comes not to silence the oppressed but to melt hardened hearts.

Advent begins in a land under a spell — where the world is frozen in fear, and hope feels like a rumor. Yet through the frost comes a whisper: “Aslan is on the move.” This series draws from the heart of C.S. Lewis’s Narnia and the ancient rhythm of Advent to name the ache of our world while awakening us to the warmth of Christ’s coming.
