Centered and Sent

Centered and Sent

Pastor David Hahn invites us to explore the vital balance of being "centered" in God's living word while being "sent" into the world to advocate for the marginalized and attend to the needs of the human body. Discover how God's promise of liberation meets us in our physical struggles and neurodiversity, calling us into a community of grace where every person belongs.

Speaking Differently About God

In Acts 4, we witness tension between the rigid, hierarchical systems of the first-century temple and the liberating movement of the Holy Spirit, which offers wholeness and divine relationship to all people regardless of their status or identity. In a world where many have been wounded by religious exclusion, will you allow yourself to be moved by a Spirit that values "spirit and truth" over location and ritual, meeting you exactly where you are?

When Difference is a Gift

The Spirit at Pentecost (Act 2:1-13) builds kinship by honoring our differences as sacred mysteries rather than labels to be controlled. This movement invites us to listen to God and one another deeply, ensuring no one stands outside the circle of compassion where we celebrate the "unknowable and unfurling" beauty of community.

Bittersweet by Sara Canal

Sara Canal is an exchange student from Spain who spent the school year with us. Rachel and Anson Horton were her host family for the school year, and June 7 was her last Sunday with us at Salt House. Sara is a musician, and a joyful spirit who lent her voice, guitar, and piano skills to our music team throughout the year. She’s also a songwriter and wrote a song to say thank you to the community at Salt House. The song is called Bittersweet! The performance last Sunday, while perfect for the moment, was a not a great version of the song (it's hard to sing when you're crying). Sara wanted the community to hear the full song, so she made a recording at home and Jason Bendickson added some production elements.  Thank you, Sara, for blessing us with your joyful and uncontainable spirit. May you be blessed as you head home to Spain.
