Joshua showed up to a meeting with the divine wearing filthy clothes. No pep talk. No payment plan. Just: "Take those off. Here's something festive." That's atonement. Not God being talked out of a grudge, but you waking up to the fact that you were never actually cut off. At-one-ment. A woman who'd been sick for twelve years knew it too. She didn't grovel. She just reached for the hem of a garment and got called "daughter." This isn't about earning your way back or faking it till you make it. It's about dropping the old story and stepping into what's already yours. You don't have to be perfect to reach for the hem. You got this.

Is Sickness Real? How to Stop Living in Fear of It. Psalm 3 quotes the crowd telling the psalmist there's no help for him in God, then answers them. This Sunday we ask the hard questions and shift from matter-based thinking to spirit-based understanding. No miracle promises. Just room to see a deeper truth. Come as you are, questions and doubts included. After the readings we get into a great, in-depth discussion. Our foundation is solid, and you belong here.

Come with questions. We've got those too.
