Something definitely worth reading as we ponder this poem in worship this week.

Daily Devotion: (Read Luke 6:32-36) Our recent immigration policy seems to favor those who are "like us" and do something for us. What would God say about that?

Hard to believe it's been nearly 10 years and this crisis continues to get worse. Do you know about the Syrian refugee crisis?

Daily Devotion: (Read Deuteronomy 27:19) How do you reconcile our recent poor record of treating the immigrant and refugee with our call from God to give justice to them?

How can we reconcile Jesus' call on us to love our neighbor with our country's continued stance to reject our neighbor? As Christians what can we do?

Daily Devotion: (Read Deuteronomy 10:14-22) Who do you think God is calling on us to help today?

Past is prologue. Our latest isolationist tendencies are something we've seen before. What important lessons should we learn from history?

Daily Devotion: (Read Luke 10:25-37) What does it mean to you to be a neighbor? How does Jesus' story of the Good Samaritan challenge you?

Join us for worship as we explore a Christian look at immigration and what it means to be a neighbor in these times. We hope you'll enjoy our special music and be with us every Sunday at 10:30am!

We say we care about life, but do we? Or is this just "everybody else's" fault? Pay attention to our messaging as Christians because it comes across as hypocritical.

Daily Devotion: (Read Romans 8:31-37) Why do humans react out of fear if we believe there is a God who loves us?

Daily Devotion: (Read Deuteronomy 30:19) This is a passage used by a "pro-life" Christian website to "prove" God is on "their" side. Even though this has nothing to do with the unborn, they use it. Why do people distort the Bible for their own ends?

We are one of the worst countries in maternal deaths among advanced economies and one of the highest death rates in gun deaths. We are also by far the country with the most guns per person. Not something to be proud of.

Daily Devotion: (Read Matthew 16:24-28) Why are there so many Christians willing to compromise their values for a Supreme Court judge?
