One Mother’s Model for Life

Date: May 11, 2025
Scripture: Psalm 23 (MSG), Acts 9:36-41 (NRSVue)
Preacher: Junha Kim

It makes a lot of sense that Psalm 23 falls in the Easter season, because it describes the new life Jesus invites us into—one of rest in lush meadows, one where our hunger and thirst are satisfied without noise, one of no despair, where dropping heads are revived and our cups are brimming with blessings, … read

Date: March 23, 2025
Scripture: Isaiah 55:1-9; Luke 13:1-9
Preacher: Rev. Eileen Parfrey

Momilies are wisdom sayings, usually bestowed by mothers and grandmothers and maiden aunties for the purpose of equipping us as civilized human beings.

Perhaps, like me, you were crammed with momilies. “Anything worth doing is worth doing well.” … read
