The Risk of Love

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/12/15

God commands us to love Them. Jesus explains that to love God means to love neighbor and self. What if love is not just intended for the recipient? What if the act of loving is what transforms us all?

The Risk of Peace

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/12/08

In a violent world, the first move towards peace is always a risky one. Who will put their sword down first?

Decolonizing Gratitude

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/11/24

Thanksgiving can be complicated. What if our gratitude could be an act of resistance? By centering Indigenous wisdom, the teachings of Jesus, and practices of reciprocity, we can move from shallow tradition to a deeper, more honest celebration of life, connection, and care for creation.

Gardeners in the War: Cultivating Hope

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/11/17

It is better to be a warrior than a garden than a gardener in a war - or so the saying goes. But the Scriptures have something else in mind. In times of horrific political violence, God tells the people to plant gardens. To fall in love. Settle down. Have children.If the world is feeling like a war zone right now, are you called to plant a seed of hope?

In Defense of Hope

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/11/03

It's a big week, y'all. And whether this Tuesday has you biting your nails, planning a victory party, or throwing your hands up in despair, we see you. But the hope we have in God - and God's people - is firmer than any promise we can receive from earthly power brokers. Let's ground ourselves in the hope of the Gospel and prepare our hearts for whatever comes next.

To Be A Blessing

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/10/27

The gifts God gives to us are meant for the benefit of all, and we are blessed when others are blessed. In a world of competition and scarcity, it feels counterintuitive - but in God's Kingdom, no one is free until we're all free.

This I Promise You

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/10/20

God makes some big promises: life abundant, resurrection, liberation... when it's hard to believe in big promises, sometimes we try and make it on our own - to our detriment. Can we lose God's promise or will God find a way regardless?

Found in Translation

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/10/13

It can be so hard to reach understanding among people with different identities, perspectives, languages and cultures. But what if that’s part of God’s design? Difference is a gift, and it can bring us closer to holiness - if we learn to trust each other and God.

It All Falls Down

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/10/06

Just a few short chapters after the creation story, The Flood comes crashing down to wipe away most of humanity. How do we make sense of this? Did God really just etch-a-sketch creation?

Life Begins with Murder

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/09/29

So the first big plot point after humanity's expulsion from the garden is... fratricide. This story is coming in hot with drama, but what does it say about the nature of people? Are we doomed to be violent from the start?

The Day Everything Fell Apart

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/09/22

We think we know the story of The Fall, right? Adam, Eve, Snake, Apple, Bummer Town. But how many different ways are there to interpret this story?

A Tale of Two Creations

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/09/15

The Bible starts out with one creation story (in the beginning...) and then the next chapter, we etch-a-sketch and start again. A new creation story, with a different order of events, characters, and vibes. What gives? And how do we trust the Bible when it can't agree with itself from page one?

In the Beginning...

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/09/08

Every great story starts with a great first line. But after that, Genesis can get a little... complicated. Buckle in as we spend some time in the first book of the Bible, making sense of the stories we tell about who we are, who God is, and why we'll be okay - even when things get messy.

Unsatisfied: Boldly Following Jesus When Growth Takes...

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/09/01

Should my faith be simple and easy? The support that comforts me during difficult times? Turns out that a relationship with God is just like other relationships. It can be a source of comfort, strength, joy, and connection - but it takes work to build all of that, and you get out what you put in.

Uncomfortable: Boldly Following Jesus into Conflict

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/08/25

Conflict is not a fave for most of us. But our faith calls us into uncomfortable space and gives us everything we need to conflict our way to deeper, more connected, more trustworthy community. We've got this - together.

Uncool: Boldly Following Jesus When It Makes You Feel...

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/08/18

We're taught that being cool means being aloof, a touch cynical, and generally above all of...this. So how can we have an earnest, eager faith, one that hopes genuinely in the Good News? Forget being too cool for school and become the faith powerhouse you long to be.

Unoriginal: Following Our Radical Forebears into...

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/08/11

Sometimes we can feel all alone, forging our own path towards liberation from scratch. But there have always been radical followers of Jesus heaven-bent on liberation and love. Come celebrate the people who made your radical faith possible and reclaim the generational wisdom of the underground church.

Uncertain: Boldly Following Jesus When You Don't Know...

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/08/04

It's pretty obnoxious when someone is unshakebly certain but also obviously wrong. And once you start to notice nuance in your faith, you see it everywhere - Christians who are CERTAIN about things that just... aren't totally black and white.How can you pursue a faith that is both bold and humble? Confident, but not so *certain*? You're not alone. Let's figure it out together.

Unafraid: Releasing Cynicism and Embracing Faith

Zao MKE Church ·

2024/07/28

What if we're wrong? Is it foolish to place our hope in love? Learn to lay down your fear and fully embrace your faith.
