Leadership matters because of what it does to us and the way it influences our own trust in God. This week we explore Paul's qualifications for church leadership and how we should thoughtfully interpret this highly contested list. Jesus is bigger and better than the institutions that represent him, though together we ask ourselves what it looks like for each of us to aspire to Christ-likeness for the sake of those who follow us.

Does Scripture really say women shouldn't teach or hold positions of authority? How do we interpret Paul's instructions here in light of the Biblical precedent for women in leadership across the Old & New Testaments? Together we explore the hidden context behind this passage and the implications for women in leadership today.

In this introduction to 1 Timothy we explore a few of the subtle distortions to the Christian faith the people of Paul's day were in danger of believing and how they are still relevant for us today. Masterfully peeling away all the layers of nonsense built up around Jesus, Paul clarifies us how simple and pure the good news really is: we are no better than anyone else, and Jesus is patient with us as we heal and learn to receive his love.

Why do people so often seem to become the thing that they started out despising? Maybe a tougher question: why do we? As Esther closes, we see the Jewish people, fresh off of the Great Reversal, begin to treat their enemies just as they had been treated in the past. They called it justice - but what Jesus describes as justice is far different.This message is from our Sunday morning service on May 17th, 2026.We meet at 957 Main St., Louisville, CO 80027 on Sunday mornings at 10am.Connect with us:kindredchurch.co@kindredchurch.cofacebook.com/kindredchurch.co

Zack: I was trapped recently in one of those coffee drive-thru lines where the car in front of you paid for your order. The happy barista informed me of the good news and pleaded that I would continue the hour-long trend. My $3 coffee became a $17.52 coffee. I wasn't happy. Sometimes the decision to pay it forward costs more than we thought it might. Esther experienced this with stakes much more serious than a cup of coffee. The way that she responds foreshadows Jesus as she provides care, comfort, and even freedom for her people.This message is from our Sunday morning service on May 10th, 2026.We meet at 957 Main St., Louisville, CO 80027 on Sunday mornings at 10am.Connect with us:kindredchurch.co@kindredchurch.cofacebook.com/kindredchurch.co

Most of us don’t tolerate uncertainty or the unexpected very well. The unknown tends to make us want to question God. Though what if we could learn to treat the unexpected not as a deviation from God’s character or proof of his distance, but as evidence of his involvement? Surprise is one of the ways we can trace his fingerprints across history. The pages of Esther are no different. Chapters 5-7 inspire us to keep hope even when we can’t understand what God is doing.

If God is in control, do my choices really matter? As our story develops we find ourselves caught in this mysterious tension, wrestling with the relationship between God’s provision and our participation. When we neglect one or the other, we either fall into coercion and control or passivity and recklessness. Esther's story invites us to consider what it means to be faithful, to trust God with what only he can do while not shrinking back from what is only ours to do.

We kick off the book of Esther by re-evaluating the startling story that we see in the first few chapters. What do we say in the face of abusive power? How do we make sense of times when God seems absent? Esther has a lot to say about things past the normal conventions of women's conferences and kid's tales.This message is from our Sunday morning service on April 12th, 2026.We meet at 957 Main St., Louisville, CO 80027 on Sunday mornings at 10am.Connect with us:kindredchurch.co@kindredchurch.cofacebook.com/kindredchurch.co

Scars tell a story, they are the evidence of our past and remind us that we've been marked by what has happened to us but still, we survived. As we celebrate the story of Easter, we are comforted by the central role Jesus' scars play in his resurrection. He chose to keep his scars on his resurrected body, wearing the cost of new life on his hands and feet. Together, we reflect on what this means for us as we experience transformation, renewal, and healing.

Today is Palm Sunday, the beginning of Holy Week. It marks the beginning of the end of Jesus' time on earth as he enters the city and marches toward his inevitable death. This famous scene features two remarkable symbols - palm branches signifying Jewish nationalism and military victory and a donkey signifying peace and the antithesis of war. As Jesus stomps over the demand to use his deity for political power, we are invited to examine our own longing for conquest, for certainty, for power.
