GOD SIGHTINGS: OUR BLOG

Each week during our worship gathering, we take time to share how we’ve seen God in our lives—whether it’s through the kindness of a stranger, the strength to reach a goal, or even the presence felt in grief and loss.

This blog takes that same spirit of reflection and expands it beyond our personal experiences. Here, we curate and share articles that engage with discipleship, justice, and the broader movements shaping our communities and the world. Our hope is to spark conversation, deepen understanding, and invite you to see where faith meets everyday life.
