September 2025 sermon series: Journey into Faith
September 7: Part 1: What’s Love Got to Do With It?
Ephesians 3: 14-19

Audrey Barton, preaching

Throughout August, Jacob helped us to reflect on, and move more deeply into, the beautiful foundational dynamics of our faith.

Doing so may lead us to recognize that people often encounter barriers to accepting or fully experiencing the gifts of God such as grace, love, restoration, closeness with God, or living our purpose. We may face such challenges ourselves or observe them in those we know who have not yet come into a life with God.

Our sermon series in September will take a look at some barriers to faith and what might help folks to keep going forward, including we who have been on the Journey into Faith for quite some time.

The way we worship is the way we live.

Worship is the work of the people, bringing together our fullest selves in a communal act of love and gratitude.  Each voice is important; each person is valued as the Spirit draws out our authentic gifts and talents, shared in the ever-widening circle of God’s people.  We hope you’ll join us this week as we gather to worship the God of extravagant welcome.
