From Nervous to Centered
The book of Philippians is a fascinating section from the Bible. Written by Paul while he was imprisoned, it offers clear directions around navigating life in the face of challenges. How do we move from being pushed around by nervous reactions and instead learn to step forward, driven by deeply embedded ideals?

Reverence Restored: Rediscovering Our Respect for the Sacred
We face anxious fragility in the face of so much change in our communities. What might we seek to recapture as a way to approach what can appear intractable at times? Maybe this ... maybe reverence.

Hope in Uncertain Times
As our journeys take us though episodes of challenge, Hope may be the best medicine but often the most elusive. Join New Church Live for an exploration of how we face the broken times, seek to soothe the unknown and anxious moments, and find hope and light amongst the noise. We hope you will be part of the conversation and hear another voice in search of quieting the noise and allowing the space for courage and optimism.

The Gift of Perspective: Seeing in New Ways

Was Jesus Happy?
Was Jesus happy? At times clearly yes. At other times clearly no. His life like ours played out between the two poles of happiness and sorrow. And the Lord gives a lesson there.. that sorrow and joy are part of loving.

You Are Seen
We all struggle with loneliness. And yet the elemental building block of all creation is love. How can we build there, finding more connection and more meaning ... and coming around to truly understanding that God, with gentleness, assures all of us that we are seen.

Light in the Darkest Moments
As it says in the Psalms, when life gets really challenging we can reach a point where "Darkness is my only friend." How do we get out of that place so that our lives don't get stuck on what is tragic? How can we move on with the loss and heartbreak and find life anew?

Transforming Negativity
It is easy to give way to negativity, to allow it to shape our lives. How can we, with God's help, transform that negativity? A simple way forward is to think about who we want to be - a diminisher or an illuminator.
