This week at GracePointe we will continue our latest series, “Meeting Jesus Again, for the First Time,” by exploring what Jesus means for us today.
For two thousand years Christians have debated, theologized, and fought (quite literally) about the meaning and nature of Jesus. Not every Christian or denomination answers this question the same way. So, what does Jesus mean through a Progressive Christian lens?
We’ll talk about it when we see you online or in person this Sunday!
This week at GracePointe we will continue our latest series, “Meeting Jesus Again, for the First Time,” by looking at the story of the Ascension.
In Luke and Acts the risen Christ is taken into heaven after his resurrection. Is this a literal story? What do we do with it?
We’ll explore this fascinating story when we see you online or in person this Sunday!
Read MoreWe are ready to celebrate Easter at GracePointe! This week we will continue our latest series, “Meeting Jesus Again, for the First Time,” by exploring the central, defining event of his story: Jesus’s resurrection.
For so many of us who have experienced faith shifts, days like Easter can be confusing and full of conflicting feelings and emotions. Are there other ways to understand/interpret Easter? This week we will look at the resurrection stories through a Progressive Christian lens and seek to discover what Easter means today.
We can’t wait to see you online or in person this Sunday!
This Sunday is Palm Sunday on the Christian calendar, which means Holy Week begins. At GracePointe we will continue our latest series, “Meeting Jesus Again, for the First Time,” by exploring one of the central events of his story: Jesus’s death on the cross.
What can we say about the reason for Jesus’s death historically? How can we understand it theologically in ways that don’t create a toxic portrait of God?
We can’t wait to see you online or in person this Sunday as we explore these questions and more!
Read MoreThis Sunday at GracePointe our latest series, “Meeting Jesus Again, for the First Time,” continues. Our focus remains on Jesus’s Kingdom of God movement and how he enacted that vision. That Jesus had the reputation of being a healer seems historically grounded. But what was the nature of those healings? Physical, literal? Or social, metaphorical? Can we really know?
Our focus this week will be on Jesus’s healings and exorcisms, and how they worked to further announce and display the kingdom of God through radically inclusive community.
Read MoreThis Sunday at GracePointe we continue our latest series, “Meeting Jesus Again, for the First Time,” by focusing on Jesus’s teaching. Primarily, Jesus taught through the use of parables, memorable sayings, and prophetic demonstrations. His teaching focused on the Kingdom of God, living as if it were already present, and resisting Roman domination through nonviolence.
We’ll explore examples of all these ways Jesus taught when we see you online or in person Sunday!
