Flip the Switch
Pastor Jeff Spencer tackles the heavy reality of personal and collective grief. Reflecting on the 5th anniversary of January 6th and the tragic death of Rene Goode, Spencer explores the exhaustion that comes with seeking justice. Through the stories of a lighthouse candle, a mirror shard from Crete, and stars reflected in a deep well, we are reminded that we don't have to be the source of the light—we only need to reflect it. Follow us for more weekly reflections and spiritual self-care practices. #Epiphany #Sermon #SpiritualSelfCare #SocialJustice #Hope #ReflectingLight

God Has Moved Into the Neighborhood
Pastor Jeff Spencer explores the intersection of faith, geopolitics, and morality following the news of the U.S. invasion of Venezuela. While acknowledging the grief and fear that come with international conflict and the violation of global treaties, Pastor Jeff reminds us that "the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it." From faith-based activism and immigrant support to innovative climate solutions around the world, there are tangible signs that God’s Word is still "becoming flesh" in our neighborhoods today. Key Highlights: A theological critique of the use of force and the immorality of war. The connection between oil reserves, tyranny, and global instability. Why the solar panel is the "peace sign of our age." Finding hope and joy through community action and environmental stewardship. "We have very real reasons to feel grief and fear... and at the same time, the Word of God has become flesh and dwelt among us."

This, This ...
In his sermon, Pastor Jeff Spencer moves beyond the traditional "creche" imagery of Christmas to examine the challenging realities found in the Gospel of Matthew. By focusing on the Holy Family’s flight to Egypt, the sermon highlights the identity of Jesus as a refugee and the "anti-emperor" who stands in direct opposition to earthly tyrants. Pastor Spencer discusses: The Contrast of Herod and the Magi: How the "skywatchers" resisted Herod’s deception and chose a different path home. Modern Echoes: A critical look at current events—including border policies and public health challenges—through the lens of biblical justice. The Soul of a Nation: Reflecting on how the acceptance of violence and torture impacts our collective moral foundation. A Call to Compassion: Understanding that serving "the least of these" is the core requirement of following Jesus. The sermon concludes with a call to view love not as a "soft" sentiment, but as a powerful act of resistance against violence and normalization of suffering.

The Babe
In this service, we look beyond the traditional lullaby to understand the difficult world into which Jesus was born—a world not unlike our own, filled with both struggle and the profound need for hope, peace, joy, and love. Service Highlights: Scripture Readings: Hear the prophetic words of Isaiah and Micah, and the Nativity story as told in the Gospel of Luke. Advent Candle Lighting: A time of prayer and reflection as we light candles for those yearning for hope and peace in our world. A Story from Mount William: A contemporary reflection on the miracle of birth, centered on a young couple’s unexpected journey through the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Closing Meditation: A reminder that the light of Christ shines in the darkness, and that by sharing our own light, we can bring more warmth and justice to the world. Whether you are seeking comfort, celebrating with family, or simply curious about the deeper meaning of the season, we invite you to experience this narrative of love and resilience. “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness does not overcome it.” #ChristmasEve #WhatChildIsThis #Nativity #Advent #HopeAndPeace #MountWilliam
