What’s Summer without a road trip? We’re travelling back to the stories of the Patriarchs – Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph. They lived on the road, and in their travels, they encountered God in strange and unexpected ways. What do we learn about God on the road that we can’t learn when we stay in our comfort zones?
How might God be calling us to go somewhere new, following after our creator?

Killing Me Softly
Shame keeps us from embracing the love God offers us. Much like Roberta Flack, we fear exposure, convinced that someone who knows us as fully as God does can only despise us. But Jesus promises that anyone who comes into the light of his presence finds not condemnation and judgment but freedom and love. This confidence emboldens us to practice the art of confession, and our courage enables those in our community find the freedom that comes from walking in the light too.
