Oops, I Didn't Mean It! - On Impact vs Intention

Reverend Lara Cowtan

 

Exploring the tension between personal salvation and the call to collective liberation. Behind words like community, fellowship, and world community are real, daily choices—choices that shape not only our individual lives, but the kind of world we are building together.

Is faith about securing my own well-being, or participating in the freedom of all?

What does it mean to be “well” in a world where others remain bound?

This sermon will invite us to wrestle with a haunting question: If I am thriving alone, am I truly free or simply comfortable?

​
​During the entire month of June, our Sunday collections, unless marked towards your pledge,

will be split 50/50 with our community partner, Serenity Renewal for Families.

Further details on how we live into our values by sharing our offerings are available here.
