18th Sunday after Pentecost

September 27th, 2026

This is Not the End of Your Story

How faith shows up in the small things
Why compassion matters, even when it’s riskey
What it means to trust God when it takes time
How gratitude can transform us
Why prayer is worth holding onto

From Pastor TJ’s sermon this past Sunday, “The Sour Grapes We Keep Eating” from Ezekiel 18:1-4, 25-32:

“God refuses to let the past become an excuse for believing that the future is already decided.”
