Saints in Caesar's Household
The Kingdom of God has a long history of showing up where it isn't supposed to be — even in Caesar's own house. This week we explore what it means to be a saint in the empire.
The Economy of the Kingdom
What we do with money is never merely financial — it's liturgical. Paul's closing words to Philippi press us toward a cruciform generosity that looks less like a budget line and more like a household.
Strength Beyond Strength
We've been reading Philippians 4:13 all wrong. What if the most famous verse about strength is actually a verse about surrender — and a far better kind of strength?
A Mind Renewed for a Chaotic World
We are being catechized by our consumption, formed by what we consume. Philippians 4:8–9 calls us to a different kind of mind — one shaped by the cross and captivated by Christ.
Joy on the Other Side of the Cross
From a prison cell, Paul commands us to rejoice — not because everything is fine, but because the tomb is empty. On Easter Sunday, we discover why resurrection changes the architecture of our interior lives.
When Unity Gets Personal
When Paul names two leaders publicly and calls them to reconcile, he’s showing us that unity isn’t managed — it’s made possible by the gospel that holds us together.
Good Friday ‘26
Most of us don't slow down for Good Friday. But that's exactly why we gather. Join us April 3 at 6 PM at McDowell Elementary to stand at the foot of the cross together — and to go back into our neighborhoods marked by something real.
Becoming By Beholding
We are formed by what we behold. In Philippians 3, Paul calls us into a communal, embodied pattern of imitation — fixing our eyes on Christ and on those who are walking faithfully toward him.
Not Arrived, But Becoming
In Philippians 3, Paul — a twenty-five-year disciple — says he hasn’t arrived. Neither have we. And that’s not a failure. It’s the shape of the Christian life.
