The OT can be hard to understand. Too many have reduced it, or manipulated it, or simply ignored it. But the true beauty is that Christ fulfilled it by embodying its true purpose—to restore humanity to God’s image through love, justice, and holiness. For those that belong to Christ, that Law is now written on our hearts and as His people, we are now called to be a distinct, grace-filled community that reflects His character to the world.

Though disciples of Jesus are only baptized once, our baptism serves as an ongoing means of grace and a reminder to our daily commitment to follow Jesus in self-giving love and resurrection life.

In this message, we rediscover the sacred mystery of Communion — not as a hollow ritual, but as a real encounter with Christ and His Church. We walk through Scripture and 2,000 years of Church history to see how the Table has always been a place of awe, unity, and life-giving fellowship. Come hungry, come thankful, and come expecting to meet Jesus at the Table.

Join us for our second annual church camping trip in beautiful Clearlake. Enjoy time away and the beauty of the outdoors on a summer camping trip with your City Parish family.

For April our City Teens will be heading to Downtown Petaluma of Thrifting and Slushes and more! Holler at us with any questions.

Christ’s resurrection isn’t just a past event—it’s a present invitation. The empty grave calls us not only to believe but to practice resurrection daily: to live with hope, walk in newness of life, and become more like Christ in a world desperate for restoration.

Through the cross (an instrument meant for death and dehumanization), Christ, the perfect human took all of the world’s sin-inducing death and shame and put it to death in his own body. Because of it, for those who respond in faith (i.e. embodied loyalty, fidelity, and allegiance to him and him alone) he offers reconciliation with God, redemption from our sin, a propitiation from God’s righteous wrath, and the pronouncement of justification.
