Paradox Church

Faith isn't about ignoring the weight of the world or pretending everything is fine. It is simply leaning slightly more toward hope than despair as you navigate your 168 hours this week. What does that 1% shift look like for you today?

Happy Pride Month, everyone! 🌈 This month we are so excited to bring you guest speakers to celebrate pride every from Sat. June 13 through Sat. June 27. Stay tuned for more information about our lovely speakers. 🥰

We tackled one of the most unsettling moments in the Gospel of Matthew this weekend in a sermon filled with talk of endings, fear, and falling stars. It’s the kind of passage that usually makes us want to look away, but we found that when you lean into the tension, there is a deep, 51% optimism waiting on the other side.

The highlight of the morning was seeing our kids lead the way, from our three young musicians and liturgists to the tiny voices filling our brand-new childcare center for ages 1-5. They remind us that the whole purpose of Jesus’s presence is to help us find the things that are scary and respond to them with love.
