As election season heats up, how do we navigate the choppy waters of faith and politics? In this series, we'll tackle the tension head-on, exploring how to follow Jesus in a world fixated on donkeys and elephants. We'll challenge ourselves to look beyond party lines, rediscover what God's kingdom truly looks like, and explore our role in building a "more perfect union."

 

Whether you're feeling politically fired up or burned out, this series offers a fresh perspective on what it means to be both a faithful Christian and an engaged citizen in today's divided world.

Sermon 1

Christianity & Politics

October 27, 2024

Do you ever feel like your faith and politics are in a constant tug-of-war? You're not alone. As Election Day looms, tensions are high and divisions deep.

 

But what if there's a way to navigate this political minefield without compromising your faith? This week, we'll explore how to follow Jesus while everyone else is fixated on donkeys and elephants. 

Sermon 2

The Real King

November 3, 2024

In a world obsessed with political power, it's easy to lose sight of the true kingdom we're called to serve. As election fervor reaches its peak, we're pausing to ask: What does God's kingdom really look like?

 

This week, we'll discover a radically different kind of kingdom – one that puts others first and shows up when we need it most.

Sermon 3

United

November 10, 2024

Although our nation has been politically divided throughout our history, something about this election just feels different. It feels like we are more divided than ever...and we might just be doomed to stay that way. But is that true? Are we doomed to be divided?

 

In this sermon, we'll talk about what it means to be united and challenged to do our part to be united with our family, friends, and community not because we're all donkeys or elephants but because we love Jesus.
