Sacred Anger

Zao MKE Church ·

2023/09/03

Guest sermon by Cor Valentine-Christophe The messaging we hear around anger is complicated and confusing. We are told it is bad, something we should push away.

Maybe we could discover transformative, sacred ways of experiencing and expressing anger.

With All Your Heart

Zao MKE Church ·

2023/08/27

Who Died & Made White Jesus King?

Zao MKE Church ·

2023/08/06

Using the language of human power (king, master, lord, etc) has warped our understanding of God. We've recreated God and Jesus in the image of our own human rulers, despots, dictators, and villains. But if God isn't like earthly rulers, then what is the reign of God actually about?

The Magdalene

Zao MKE Church ·

2023/07/30

Lies I Heard in Church: ”Church Has To Be Like This”

Zao MKE Church ·

2023/07/23

Whether you grew up evangelical, Catholic, or something else, your church might have given you the impression that there's only one true way to be faithful spiritual community.

Join us for a conversation about what heathy church can look like, with good boundaries, equitable power dynamics, and the freedom to be who God made you to

Zao MKE Church ·

Zao MKE Church ·

2023/07/02

Zao MKE Church ·

Lies I Heard in Church: ”Being gay is wrong”

Zao MKE Church ·

2023/06/11

Gay people are made in the beautiful, queer image of God. So why has the church been talking trash about them for the last 80 years? We'll unpack the lies and where they come from, along with the surprisingly short history of anti-queerness in Christianity, alongside the surprisingly ancient history of LGBTQ people as important spiritual leaders. *** Join Zao MKE Church for our summer series, Lies I Heard in Church.

Lies I Heard in Church: ”The Bible clearly says...”

Zao MKE Church ·

2023/06/04

Tbh, the Bible is super confusing. But what if that's okay? Instead of doing mental gymnastics to try and pretend it's clear cut, we are called to step out in faith and wrestle with this beautiful, complicated, messy book. And the best part? You don't have to do that alone. *** Join Zao MKE Church for our summer series, Lies I Heard in Church.

Zao MKE Church ·

2023/05/21

God called you "very good" when you were created, and that promise of your true nature remains steadfast no matter what trials you experience or mistakes you make.

Betray the Empire

Zao MKE Church ·

2023/05/14

If we die to the things of this world, then the threats from the powers of this world hold no sway over us. How can "dying to sin" free you to live a life of rebellion and liberation here and now?

Emerge

Zao MKE Church ·

2023/05/07

The new life promised to us begins by leaving behind those things that bind us in death. What does it look like for you to emerge from your grave? From the closet? From that relationship that took so much life from you? Wherever you are, you are called into new life.

Trust and Believe

Zao MKE Church ·

2023/04/30

Who do we believe and who do we question? The story of "doubting Thomas" shows us that the truth of oppression can be believed through the revealing of our wounds. And yet Jesus follows that up blessing anyone who hasn't seen or touched the pain of others and still believes what they say about who they are and what they have been through.
