*You belong here

Hello friends!

People of faith in America are divided squarely across partisan lines; the medium has overtaken the message; and somehow political affiliations have become lines of exclusion and divisiveness in the name of religion.

There is yet hope:  The Biblical principles of truth, justice, mercy and unconditional love remain steadfast and timeless levers of unity and hope for a troubled world.

This is a safe space to explore Biblical truth from within the broader context of spirituality and to encounter God’s love with a fresh lens for the times.

While we embrace a Biblical worldview, we also welcome and seek to integrate the myriad tools and resources the God of the Universe gives us, including those from outside the Christian faith background, such as Kabbalah, Christian mysticism, astrology, and wisdom from ancient and esoteric traditions. Here, may our common ground overshadow our differences.

We welcome anyone and all faiths. We are delighted to come alongside you as fellow seekers. You belong.

with love,
three strands

*God wants to know us personally

God created us in His image. The fact that we have hearts that love and feel and hurt comes from God himself. We’re made with hearts that are wired to love. Wired for relationship. Friends, God is a God of relationship. He really wants to know each and every one of us, personally. Which may seem like a stretch. But will you imagine for a moment that, if it’s possible for God to know the genetic sequencing of every living being on earth, and if it’s possible that God himself created the planets and orbits and math and wisdom, then it’s also possible for him to know us individually. And to care about each one of us equally.
The Word confirms over and over that God has good things in mind for us, a unique purpose he created for each one of us that only we can fulfill. We hope that you’ll encounter a new way of seeing God through this blog. One that challenges conventional wisdom and one that testifies to a personal God of relationship who is with us in every detail of our lives and teaches us something new in every circumstance.

God, can you forgive even this?

Most of us have had at least one David moment where something we did caused us to question whether God could ever take us back, but the scriptures tell us God’s mercy is as wide as 70 times 7 times.

Cast your nets in faith

Life is hard, and sometimes, we can fall into financial hardship, illness, unemployment and underemployment. Unfortunately, all too many of us have struggled through covid-19. In this blog, we tackle how to cast your nets in faith and trust God to return a harvest.

What the Bible has to say about mercy (part 1)

Standing steadfast in challenging and unjust circumstances can stretch us beyond our human strength. Circumstances may not be fair or just, but we can control the posture of our hearts and respond with mercy anchored in love.
