Genesis 11v27-12v9 with Tim Mackie and Tyler Staton A reflection on the tension of living between blessing and suffering, and the way God speaks hope into places that feel marked by loss, uncertainty, and unmet expectations. Through the story of Abram and Sarai, we’re invited to trust God in the midst of chaos, receive his blessing as a gift rather than something we control, and take small steps of faith toward the future he is shaping.

John 20v11-18 with Joy Schlichter Hope takes shape in the voice of Jesus, the one who meets Mary Magdalene in her grief outside the empty tomb and calls her by name.

Hebrews 11v1-3 with Tyler Staton Faith is more than belief, it is a way of seeing.

1 Corinthians 13v1-13 with Bethany Allen Love is what makes a life truly powerful, not impressive moments or visible gifts.

This is the first week in our new series as we move toward Pentecost. Bridgetown.church/teaching

John 20v1-10 with Tyler Staton The resurrection story comes alive as Jesus meets people in grief, doubt, and shame, restoring their lives from the inside out.
