Creekwood Christian Church

In this week's sermon, we learn what improv games, temple scrolls, and those chain forwards your grandma sends have in common. What's more, we learn how God calls us to listen in the midst of so much talking.

This week, Rev. Jonathan Brink reminds us that there is not time like the present to begin living our best lives because God has invited us to the party.

We begin a new sermon series for the new year. Instead of committing all of our time and energy to imagining who could be or how we should be-- what would happen if we began celebrating who God has called us to be in the exact moment?

As Christmas approaches, we hear many people talking about the joy of this season. What about those of us who are struggling to feel joy, but who so desperately wish we could?On this third Sunday of Advent, we consider how small signs and seeds of joy have already been planted in our lives.

We live in a world that teaches us how to create war, strife, and discord. What would happen if we began to learn the art of peace instead of the art of war? On this second Sunday of Advent, we reflect on how the birth, life, and teachings of Christ offer us lessons in peace making and world building.

As we begin the season of Advent, we are preparing our hearts and the world to welcome the coming of the Christ child. Our world is in need a one who promises to bring hope. Where can we spot signs of hope within the world and within ourselves as this holy season begins?

This week, Rev. Whitney continues our Asking for a Friend Worship Series with the question, "Do I Fit In?" Pretty much all of us have had the feeling that we don't belong, worried that we won't be accepted, and struggled with self-doubt. What does God have to say about all that struggle and worry of belonging?

This week, we begin a new worship series, "Asking for A Friend." Each week, we will examine different questions of identity and culture that are sometimes difficult for us to ask or put into words.

This week, as we continue our Global Generosity Sermon Series, we are joined by Rev. Caroline Hamilton-Arnold, the Associate Director of Week of Compassion to hear about how the church is present in the midst of disaster response, community development, and refugee resettlement.

Rev. Gabriel Edwards shares a sermon focusing on his time in Kenya, where he experienced firsthand what it means to offer our best gifts (whatever they may be) in service to God and the greater community.

This week, Rev. Jonathan Brink shares his vision for how we can imagine, experience, and participate in the reign of God.

In the third installment of our "There's A Seat For You" Sermon Series, Rev. Whitney Waller-Cole preaches a sermon on the relationships, responsibilities, and risks God requires us to take.

As we continue our "There's A Seat For You" Sermon Series, Rev. Jonathan Brink shares a reflection on the lessons that both the past and future can teach us about our faith journey.

This week, we begin a new worship series, "There's a Seat For You!" For six weeks, we will be talking about God's redemptive grace and radical welcome that we are expected to extend to one another.

We can't confirm or deny if the Apostle Paul was into rap music, as that's anachronistically impossible to ever know. BUT! This week in our Sacred Chord Sermon Series, we reflect on how rap music can inform our understanding of Paul.

What connection can we possibly make between the Virgin Mary and bands that your parents listened to? This week, we continue our Sacred Chord Sermon Series by sampling of some dad rock and the story of announcing Jesus' birth.

In our latest worship series, "The Sacred Chord," we are looking at how "secular" music provide spiritual grounding for us as people who try to move in the spirit of God.This week, we look at how R&B, the civil rights movement, and the Israelites relate to one another.

This week, we look at two stories that tell us a lot about how powerful friendship can be: one from the Gospel of Luke and one from the Continuing Testament of Rob Reiner. God created us to be in relationship with one another, and friendships are some of the most important relationships we can share. What does godly friendship look like, though?

Continuing our Faith and Film Worship Series, this week we see what advice and example the quirky, indie flick Lars and the Real Girl has for us as a church that strives to welcome everyone and practice radical acceptance.

How do the worlds of Pixar's Coco and the Book of Ruth intersect to reveal how sacred and difficult family is? Listen to this week's sermon to find out!
