Gathering 205: “Blessed are…the merciful” 20:00

Play Pause

3y ago20:00

20:00

Jesus said, "Blessed are the merciful." Of all the Beatitudes from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, this is the only one that is truly reciprocal. Yet it’s this very quality of mercy that draws into question a person’s motive for compassion and kindness. Is demonstrating or showing mercy to another individual done out of a genuine sense of goodwill, or …

Gathering 204: “Blessed are…the hungry and thirsty” 26:00

3y ago26:00

26:00

In the 21st century, we do not have a lack of food. Food insecurity does exist in America, but 39% of those living with food insecurity are obese. Why? Perhaps, the problem is simply the ineffectual distribution of food to the masses. Or could it be the food industry wants you to believe that hunger is a virtue, so you’ll continue to consume more s…

Gathering 203: “Blessed are…the Meek” 26:00

3y ago26:00

26:00

Jesus said, “Blessed are the meek, the humble and the gentle...for they will inherit the earth." Meekness, gentleness, and humility are all notable traits. Unfortunately, it's those very traits that are often exploited by the boastful and belligerent. So, the question is, what kind of shape will the world be in when they inherit it? This Sunday, we…

Gathering 202: “Blessed are the…Pure in Heart” // Service of Worship 26:00

3y ago26:00

26:00

“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.” A lofty notion considering the countless number of definitions of what it means to be "pure in heart". Throughout the centuries, Christians can't seem to agree on the meaning of this Beatitude. Is it a measure of one's devotion to God, or of one's internal character? Perhaps it's our intention…

A new sermon series begins! Join us as we begin a fascinating study of the eight Beatitudes or blessings recounted by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount and depicted through the eight new paintings by artist, Julie Frye, recently installed on the south wall of our worship space. This week we'll explore the first of eight Beatitudes, "Blessed are the …

Gathering 200: “The Lord’s Prayer: Lead us not into temptation” 24:00

3y ago24:00

24:00

Ever hear your inner voice chiding you to bite your tongue, don’t say a word!? Temptation convinces, cajoles, or even threatens us into inaction. But when, if ever, is temptation good? Should we routinely pray "Lead us not into temptation" or is greater self-reflection the antidote? Today, Pastor Tony Minear, Ph.D. wraps up his sermon series on the…

Gathering 199: “The Lord’s Prayer: Forgive Us Our Debts” 30:00

3y ago30:00

30:00

"Forgive Us Our Debts." Forgive us our what?? Author Jon Bloom asks, "Ever find yourself reciting The Lord's Prayer outside of your home church and things usually go pretty smoothly till you get to the fourth line? Some will say 'forgive us our debts,' some will say 'trespasses,' and others will say 'sins'." So, which is it? If it is "debt," is it …

Gathering 198: “The Lord’s Prayer: Give us this day our daily bread” 31:00

3y ago31:00

31:00

"Give us this day our daily bread." An appropriate petition for the Israelites wandering in the wilderness hungry for manna during their 40-year exodus, but what does it mean for society today? The majority of households in the U.S. today (about 75%) live above the poverty level and do not experience food insecurity. As a nation of abundance and fa…

Gathering 197: “The Lord’s Prayer: Your Will be Done on Earth” 24:00

3y ago24:00

24:00

"Perhaps no other words flow so freely from the lips of well-intentioned people as the phrase 'the will of God.' God is blamed for so much! – Bishop John Shelby Spong. Last week we explored Jesus’ vision of the kingdom of God and how it begins with ourselves. Can we also apply that same vision here when it comes to ‘the will of God’? Afterall, ‘the…

Gathering 196: “The Lord’s Prayer: Your Kingdom Come” // Service of Worship 31:00

3y ago31:00

31:00

God, your kingdom come. 13 U.S. Service Members killed and 100's of Afghanis killed or wounded. Thy kingdom come. Americans and Afghanis fearful if they don’t get out of Afghanistan they will be executed. Thy kingdom come. Political parties in Washington D.C. play the blame game. Thy kingdom come. Your kingdom come. What does it even mean anymore? …

Gathering 195: “The Lord’s Prayer: Hallowed be your name” // Service of Worship 22:00

3y ago22:00

22:00

“Hallowed be your name...” A radical petition? Maybe not by today’s standards. For many Christians, The Lord’s Prayer holds a rich tradition of practice recited corporately each and every Sunday during worship. And although it may seem customary (perhaps even a tad banal given its repetitive formulary for today’s worship), it was in Jesus’ lifetime…

Gathering 194: “The Lord’s Prayer: Our Father” // Service of Worship 25:00

3y ago25:00

25:00

“Our Father...” These summoning first words of the Lord's Prayer immediately direct our attention to the divine as a patriarchal figure—a metaphor for a father watching over his household. Metaphors are a powerful and useful device for something abstract, like God. Where does this specific metaphor of a Father come from, and are you comfortable cal…

Gathering 193: “The Lord’s Prayer: An Introduction” // Service of Worship 29:00

3+ y ago29:00

29:00

No matter your tradition, be it Christian or non-Christian, chances are you've heard The Lord's Prayer spoken or sung. Many presume it was first spoken by Jesus, but when was its liturgical debut and why are there several different versions of this prayer? Today we begin our new sermon series: “The Lord’s Prayer”. Pastor Tony Minear, Ph.D. invites …

Gathering 192: “In-Between” // Service of Worship // ellie hutchison, MiD 26:00

3+ y ago26:00

26:00

In-between. It's that space of existence between the monsoon clouds and downpour of rain, the territory that lies between wakefulness and sleep, between pandemic and herd immunity, and the space traversing familiar rituals and evolutionary thought. What feels comfortable for you and where do you orient yourself when you're caught "in-between"? Join…

Gathering 190: “Are you a goat?” // Service of Worship // Rev. Tony Minear, Ph.D 29:00

3+ y ago29:00

29:00

Homo Sapiens precariously set themselves atop the great chain of being right below their God. In doing so humanity boldly claimed dominion over all creation. Wildfires, a global climate crisis, the pandemic, and a growing list of endangered species plague our planet. Is this the tipping point? Has humanity finally been pushed from the pedestal, or …

Gathering 189: “Souls, Elephants and Ostriches” // Rev. Tony Minear, Ph.D. 29:00

3+ y ago29:00

29:00

Don’t be an ostrich. When your beliefs are under attack, what are you most likely to do? For most people, the easiest way to avoid or ignore the attack is to be like the ostrich and bury our head in the sand. It’s an effective posture to take to guard our beliefs. Evolution tells us we are wired to seek protection from attacks, especially those aga…

Gathering 188: “To dream…” // Service of Worship // Rev. Tony Minear, Ph.D. 26:00

3+ y ago26:00

26:00

What is the American dream? The founding fathers of our nation imagined a nation built upon the principles of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. But would they recognize today’s version of the American dream? Likewise, thousands of spiritual communities and churches like ours were once imagined and founded on a common vision. But will that…

What a shakeup 2020 was for all of humanity. From the pandemic to Black Lives Matter, the rules of social order crumbled as confusion and division overshadowed the very fabric and health of communities.

Gathering 185: “Evolving…” // “God of Fluidity” // Rev. Tony Minear, Ph.D. 27:00

3+ y ago27:00

27:00

Will your God survive the 21st century? As humanity's understanding of evolutionary theory and science continues to grow and evolve, what impact will it have on your concept of the divine? Will it remain the same or will it also shift and evolve to accommodate for new ideas and understandings? Join us this week as Pastor Tony Minear, Ph.D. conclude…

Gathering 184: “Evolving…” // “Darwin, Caterpillars, Wasps and Evil” 30:00

3+ y ago30:00

30:00

How is it that a benevolent God allowed 98% of all species throughout all history to become extinct? When you look at the natural world, you can find all kinds of pain and suffering. From caterpillars becoming fodder for wasp larvae, to antelope hunted as prey for leopards, how do you explain the prevalence of suffering and evil in the natural worl…

Gathering 183: “Evolving…” // “The Angst of Evolutionary Theory" 28:00

3+ y ago28:00

28:00

Speculations as to the origins and ancestry of humanity have divided and generated angst in cultures for centuries, and perhaps none greater than Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution in 1859. Though revolutionary, Darwin’s theory of natural selection was incompatible with religious beliefs and further complicated the tenuous relationship between sc…

Gathering 182: “Evolving…Intelligent Design After Darwin” // 30:00

3+ y ago30:00

30:00

Why do you believe in God? For decades, humanity has struggled with the question. Life's complexities often leave us seeking answers and feeling alone. Until Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution and natural selection, science could provide no better alternative to explain the Design in nature other than by the hands of an intelligent designer. But …
