Across the Universe

Nov 27 2016 • Greg Boyd, Seth McCoy

2000 years ago, the vast and powerful God of the universe reached across a cosmic divide — one that we created — and arrived as a baby in Bethlehem. He came to Earth to teach us about the Father and to invite us back to our true home in the Kingdom of God.

Sermons in this series:


Lighting the Way Home

• Greg Boyd

Jesus is the Light of the world, and this Light has always been at work within us, whether or not we've been aware of it. Once we surrender to that Light, we find ourselves swept up into the greatest love story of all time!

Topics: Love, Presence of God, Reconciliation


Keeping the Light

• Greg Boyd

Keeping the Light. Throughout the biblical narrative, we see that Jesus is the light of the world. And that light is shared with humanity in order that we may shine the light. In the Old Testament, Israel was called to be the light to other nations. With the Incarnation, Jesus came as the light of the world. And today, the family of God is to bear witness to the light of the world. Greg shares with us how we are blessed to be conduits of light, to shine and share the light.

Topics: Community, Discipleship, Kingdom of God


Invasion of Light

• Greg Boyd

In this third week of our Across the Universe series we are reminded that the counter-cultural beauty of the Christmas story is in the reality that the God who created the vast expanses of the universe became small and vulnerable. While it is often the case that we marvel at what is grand and big, the message at Christmas is that oftentimes the most profound experiences of God are in the seemingly mundane moments of life. Our call is to be a people who remember and remind others that the God of the universe does not only go half way for us, and so we should go all the way in love for others.

Topics: Hope, Identity in Christ, Presence of God


The Light of Love

• Seth McCoy

As we move toward Christmas during our Across the Universe series, Seth explores what it means when God, the Creator of the universe, calls us home. This message took a look at what home means, and what we’re being invited in to, as seen through the unique lens of the prodigal son.

Topics: Forgiveness, Grace, Relationships


Marvelous Light

• Greg Boyd

In the sermon this week Greg reflects on how the heavens tell of the glory of God. The vast and beautiful universe, bigger than the human mind can conceive, points to a marvelous creator. This same awe-inspiring creator is the one that became human to love and save all of humanity.

Topics: Creation, Kingdom of God, Worship
