Welcoming the Stranger

CrossWalk Community Church Napa ·

2025/10/12

In this powerful message offered by Rev. Dr. Angela Barker-Jackson, we're invited to explore the profound concept of welcoming strangers, rooted in Leviticus 19:34. This scripture challenges us to treat strangers as natives and love them as ourselves, reminding us of our own history as strangers. The sermon beautifully connects this ancient text to Jesus' teachings in the Sermon on the Mount, emphasizing that holiness is not just an idea, but an active engagement with the world. We're called to

What's the Eye got to do with Anything?

CrossWalk Community Church Napa ·

2025/10/07

Today, we delve into the profound teachings of Matthew 6:22-23, exploring the concept of the 'eye as the lamp of the body.' This scripture challenges us to examine our spiritual vision and how it impacts our entire being. Are we seeing the world through eyes of generosity and abundance, or through a lens of scarcity and greed? The passage connects deeply with Jesus' warning that we cannot serve both God and wealth, reminding us that our perspective on material possessions can blind us to spiritual

Lasting Treasure

CrossWalk Community Church Napa ·

2025/09/28

Consumerism can be exhilarating, but it can also leave us in a perpetual state of never feeling satisfied, in competition with our neighbors, and a little light in our wallet. The Way of Jesus, however, does the opposite, yielding a rewarding life filled with the fruit of the Spirit of God that never runs out. Choose the Way!

Delvier Us from Evil

CrossWalk Community Church Napa ·

2025/09/22

This part of the Lord's Prayer seems quite obvious, right? It's airy out to God to come rescue us from the evil that terrorizes us. Well, no. The Aramaic language and Eastern culture of Jesus indicate a different, much more relevant interpretation.

Tempting

2025/09/14

Temptation is a fact of life. How we think about it makes all the difference. Jesus' temptation story provides a framework for understanding categories of temptation and healthy ways to respond.

As We Forgive

CrossWalk Community Church Napa ·

2025/09/08

Forgiving someone who has wronged us is hard work. Not popular. Not fair. Not just. So why are we supposed to do this again?

Forgive Us

CrossWalk Community Church Napa ·

2025/09/01

Jesus taught his disciples to ask God to forgive our debts, trespasses, sins, and more. Easier said than done when done sincerely. Asking for forgiveness implies awareness of our need for forgiveness. That's when things get difficult for us...

Daily Bread

CrossWalk Community Church Napa ·

2025/08/24

Being aware and grateful for our planet's capacity to provide food, and all the hands involved from planting all the way to our meal will help you live in deeper awe and gratitude. Discovering that the Aramaic word for bread is the same as for understanding and wisdom, this line of the prayer takes on new meaning. The Divine Feminine Wisdom is one that is creative, generative, embodying and fostering possibility. Together, we find ourselves full of both kinds of bread, more able to enter the world

On Earth as it is in Heaven

CrossWalk Community Church Napa ·

2025/08/18

Building on the passionate invitation, Thy Kingdom come, the second half of the second line of the Lord's Prayer follows suit, seeking to be fully aligned with the Divine. The more that happens, the more we find ourselves naturally living in response to the winds of the Spirit of God, and less in the way of what Love is trying to build in the world. Less about following rules and sin management, and more about living in deep relationship with the One that unites us all.

Thy Kingdom Come Like Hallelujah

CrossWalk Community Church Napa ·

2025/08/10

It turns out that the second line of the Lord's Prayer in Aramaic requires an entirely different tone than most of us have been advised. WAY different tone. Can we handle it?

When You Pray

CrossWalk Community Church Napa ·

2025/07/06

Prayer is complicated and simple all at the same time. The goal? Also complicated. Sometimes we treat God like our personal genie who exists to grant our wishes, or a Divine Super-sized Santa to deliver goodies because we've been so good. Perhaps the greater goal though is simply finding ourselves in the Presence of God where we find all our needs meet on the deepest levels. Presence is where the healing, hope, love, and all the other things that fall under the umbrella of shalom reside. Good news

Love Our Enemies

CrossWalk Community Church Napa ·

2025/06/09

Most Christians know Jesus said to do this. Most Christians I know wish he hadn't. Most Christians I know struggle with this. Maybe it's more of a heart thing than a mind thing - maybe we can't think our way to it but have to love our way through it.

Overcoming Evil

CrossWalk Community Church Napa ·

2025/06/01

Jesus told his follows to turn the other cheek, go the extra mile, and give the shirt off your back. From our vantage point, this sounds like instruction on how to be a nice person. To the original audience however, it was coaching on nonviolent resistance.

Nonresistance?

CrossWalk Community Church Napa ·

2025/05/25

Jesus said do not resist an evil person. Hmmm. Do we agree? What could he have meant? Get ready to be disturbed.
