June 15, 2025 - Compassion that Lasts

This week, we celebrate our fathers, and the father of us all, our Father God. The word father has different meanings for us all, depending on our own family experiences, so it is important to see what the bible has to say about God and the qualities of a good father. We will dig into Psalm 103 as we explore the themes of love and compassion. Thanks to Pastor Reed Conley of Artisan Church for being our guest pastor this week.

June 8, 2025 - The Paraclete

This week is Pentecost, the day we celebrate the gift of the Holy Spirit, given to us by Jesus to be our advocate, our friend, and our guide. Pentecost is a powerful reminder that God is still moving, still breathing life into weary hearts, still stirring up courage in places we least expect. The Holy Spirit wasn’t a one-time gift for a group of first-century believers. That same Spirit is still given to us today. So this week we ask "Where is God showing up in our lives today?"

June 1, 2025 - The Power of the Holy Spirit

This week, Pastor Dana begins a short series on the Power of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit is the mysterious part of the Trinity and doesn't get talked about as much as God the Father and Jesus Christ, probably because the early church focused more on Jesus and his divinity. But it is the Holy Spirit who reminds us of Jesus' teachings, who urges us to open our minds and hearts, who helps us pay attention to the lessons around us. The Holy Spirit completes the Trinity in a way that keeps us in touch with our spirituality on a day to day basis.

May 11th, 2025 - Happy Mother's Day

May 4, 2025 - Reconciling Relationships

Do you have any strained relationships that could use some help? Well, so did Jesus! In fact, he was on the outs with his best friend, Peter. This week in worship, we watch as they reconcile their relationship, and Jesus gives Peter a new mission. 

April 27, 2025 - Authority and Leadership

This week in worship, Pastor David takes a look at the authority of Jesus. Where did Jesus get the power to speak? Who gave him the leadership ability to stand up to the Pharisees? What voices speak to you the loudest in your life?
  

April 20, 2025 - Understanding the Resurrection

Happy Easter! Christ has Risen! How can you understand the resurrection The journey of faith begins with one step. Keep trying to learn more. Week by week you will be amazed what God will do through these times of worship and exploration. Find time to go open your Bibles. Read the Gospels— Matthew, Mark, Luke and John— to immerse yourself in Jesus’ story. Finally, go outside and look for signs of resurrection happening in our world. New leaves, blossoms, and new life all point to resurrection. 

March 30, 2025 - The Power of the Cross

This week in worship is the fourth week of Lent, and we journey closer to the cross. Pastor Dana looks at the Power of the Cross, and the places we turn when we don't know where to go. 

March 23, 2025 - Our Legacy

This week in worship, we celebrate Commitment Sunday for our Capital Campaign. As we reflect on 261 years of faithfulness from the people of Unity, we recognize how amazing Unity is today because of those who came before us. With gratitude, we say “Thank You” for their dedication while making our own commitments to Unity’s future. As we enter the third week of Lent, let this be a time of prayer and reflection, seeking the many ways God calls you into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.

March 16, 2025 - Our Future

In this week's worship, we talk about the future. Most of us plan for our own future, but have you thought about what you're leaving for future generations? Not only as an inheritance, but as a legacy, a continuation of what your parents and grandparents taught you. Will your children, and their children, know that God was an important part of your life? Will God be an important part of their lives? Lent gives us time to reflect on our relationship with God and how we might grow closer and help our families in their walk of faith, too.
