The Fifth Sunday after Pentecost. In a world that often draws lines between "us" and "them," what does it mean to become the Good Samaritan? Fr. John Kennedy explores Jesus’ radical call to love across boundaries—racial, political, religious—and what it means to be baptized into the heart of Christ. Whether you’ve heard the parable of the Good Samaritan a dozen times or are hearing it with fresh ears, this sermon will challenge and inspire you to live a bigger, bolder life—one not small and safe, but wide open with love.

The Fourth Sunday after Pentecost. In a world obsessed with speed and shortcuts, what does it really mean to follow Christ with patience, intention, and depth? Explore St. Paul’s paradox: salvation is a free gift of grace—yet we still reap what we sow. What’s the difference between cheap grace and the slow, transformative work of God?

As Americans prepare to celebrate freedom, St. Paul’s words hit differently: “For freedom Christ has set us free.” But what kind of freedom is that, exactly? Is it just doing whatever we want? Or is it something deeper, more life-giving—and maybe even more demanding? The Rev. John Kennedy explores the surprising paradox at the heart of Christian freedom: a freedom that isn’t about self-indulgence but about love, limits, and becoming fully alive. The Third Sunday after Pentecost.

The Second Sunday after Pentecost. Is it really possible to belong just as you are? Explores Paul's radical message: you don’t have to earn your place—you already belong. In a world that pressures us to fit in, succeed, and prove ourselves, the gospel proclaims a freeing truth: accept that you are accepted.

This Trinity Sunday, The Rev. Elizabeth Garnsey takes us beyond doctrine into the mystery of divine love in motion. Explore how the Holy Trinity is not a puzzle to be solved—but a relationship to be lived. As she prepares for sabbatical after seven transformative years, Rev. Elizabeth invites us to find wonder, confront violence with love, and rediscover what it means to be the place where God happens.
