The Simplicity of Saintliness | Simple Saints
What does listening to God have to do with the body you live in, the work you do, and the people you find difficult to hear? Our name, saints, is both a gift and a task: we are, thus, set apart in Christ and called to become who we have been named, together. By Simple Saints, we refer to…

Holy Body | Simple Saints
If one day our bodies will be raised anew in, with, and by Jesus, what does that say about how we live in them now? Our bodies tire, ache, deteriorate, and change. The Christian faith names that honestly (perhaps, sometimes even emphasizes our physical and spiritual vulnerability a little too...
-
Simply Soulful | Simple Saints
Our bodies wear down, but our inner life can be renewed day by day. In Simply Soulful, we turned to 2 Corinthians 4:13 and ask what it means to attend to both the soul God is renewing and to God, through the ordinary practices of the Examen, contemplation and conversation, shared devotion, and...
-
Simple Spirit | Simple Saints
What does it mean to be "spiritual?" What is the difference between spirit and soul? This week we consider Paul's prayer that our whole spirit, soul, and body be kept blameless. Our life does not begin with us. We receive life from God, and we grow into that life through repentance, confession,...
-
Simply All | Simple Saints
How do you stay whole even as contemporary life pulls you in different directions? Saint Paul calls the church "saints": people made holy in Christ, set apart, and called to grow into that gift of holiness... together. In the second message of our fall series, Simple Saints, we consider how God's...
-
Our Family Name | Simple Saints
What's in a name? Really? The first message from our Simple Saints series begins by gathering the 'fruit' of our summer in James. James ends his letter calling us to speak life over one another, to draw one another into life — which is another way of saying: live into who you are and who's you...
-
Complete Faith (5:13-20) | James: Faith at Work
What do you do when you believe, but feel too weak to live what you believe? James ends his letter where he began: with faith growing toward a life that is complete, lacking nothing, amid the troubles of ordinary life. In this final sermon in our Faith at Work series, James 5:13-20 invites us to...
-
Protest, Patience, Presence (5:1-12) | James: Faith at Work
"Come now, you rich. Weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you." Just some light, Sunday morning devotional reading... right? In James 5:1-12, James speaks first as a prophet against the unrighteous rich: those who hoard, defraud, and live in self-indulgence while the people who…

If the Lord Wills (4:11-17) | James: Faith at Work
What is your life? A mist? A vapor? Something more? Less? In James 4, James turns from the war within us to the way we live in the world. He confronts two universal sins: the individual sin of judging and condemning one another — exalting ourselves to lawgivers — and the collective sin of…
more -
At The Heart of Faith's Work (4:1-12) | James: Faith at Work
What keeps you from peace? In week 9 of our series on James, we arrive at one of the most confrontational passages in the New Testament. James asks, "What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you?" His answer is not about the other person, the circumstances, or even the truth — it is…
more -
Evidently Wise (3:13-18) | James: Faith at Work
How do you know if you are living wisely? James does not ask for your credentials. He asks for evidence. "Who is wise and understanding among you?" is not a question looking for a particular set of ideas or even beliefs — it is a question looking for a particular way of life. In James 3:13-18…
more -
Words through the Word (3:1-12) | James: Faith at Work
What if the problem with our words is deeper than just saying the wrong thing? In James 3:1-12, we are invited to feel the weight of the tongue. Our words matter in our journey of faith, our work, and our community. They can bless God while wounding people made in his likeness. They can become a...
-
Fullness of Faith (2:14-26) | James: Faith At Work
What if faith was never meant to be a private belief you keep separate from the rest of your life? In week 5 of James: Faith At Work, we sit with one of the more difficult and controversial passages in the New Testament: James 2:14-26. James asks, to paraphrase, "What good is a claim of faith…
more -
Facing Up to Partiality (2:1-13) | James: Faith at Work
Many of our churches ignore our tendencies towards partiality, justify our favoritism, and excuse our cliquish exclusivity, labeling it 'fellowship.' But what if this is an afront to God, who, after all, "shows no partiality" (Rom. 2:11)? What if communities filled with partiality actually betray...
-
Participating With Faith (1:19-27) | James: Faith at Work
A plant grown without wind grows weak. James says your faith is no different — the friction of an ordinary week may be the very thing God is using to strengthen and mature both you and your faith. In week 2 of our look at James we walk through James 1:19-27: How do we move from merely agreeing…
more -
Complete(ing) Faith (1:1–18) | James: Faith at Work
Sheltered, undisturbed plants may grow fast and even tall, but the result is a weak, fragile, and easily uprooted plant. By contrast, plants exposed to rain, wind, and the occasional disturbance grow strong, stable, and sturdy. Your soul works the same way. In this opening sermon of our summer...
-
A Whole & Holy Life | Get(ting) Out of Work
What if work was never the thing to survive on the way to your real life — but the very medium through which you offer yourself to God? In the finale of our "Get(ing) Out of Work" series we consider a few of the ancient, yet ever new, practices that the church has used to help God's people stay…
more -
A Rested Soul | Get(ting) Out of Work
What if the burden of your work isn't that there's too much to do — but that there's an anxiousness in your soul that no productivity system can fix? This Sunday we looked at Matthew 11:25-30, sitting with the weight of Jesus' invitation to all who are "heavy laden." The Greek word for burden,...
-
Delight in Submission | Get(ting) Out of work
What would change tomorrow if you forgot about serving others — and simply served the work? In Week 5 of our post-Easter series, we learn that for work to become a delight and fulfillment, it has to become something we submit to — not a means of getting something, but the medium through which we...
-
The Good In Which We Are Made | Get(ing) Out of Work
What if the good life isn't getting out of work — but getting the good out of work? A common narrative today is one that says the good life is what waits on the other side of our labor, that progress always means doing less, working less, and somehow still getting more, and that the human ideal…
more -
Submitting to Freedom | Get(ting) Out of Work
Sabbath isn't a reward for a productive week. It's a declaration that you're already free. In week three of Get(ing) Out of Work, we turn to Deuteronomy 5 — where Moses restates the Sabbath command and adds something Exodus doesn't: a reason. Not creation, but liberation. God commands rest…
more -
Mis-Loving Work | Get(ting) Out of Work
Work isn't what's broken. We are. And that changes everything about how we show up on Monday. Tracing the Genesis narrative through the Fall, Noah, and the Noahic covenant, Pastor Jeremy Pace shows that the pain and struggle we experience in work stem from twisted human hearts, not from work...
