02/15/26	10:00:00	Truth Matters		Is truth found in a laboratory or a sacred text? In this insightful sermon, guest preacher Dr. Rich Godfrey explores the harmony between scientific discovery and spiritual revelation. From the physics of Isaac Newton and the evolution of Charles Darwin to the nonviolent resistance of Mahatma Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Dr. Godfrey examines how these "truth-seekers" shaped our world. He shares his own journey—from resigning from the Navy during the Vietnam War to finding spiritual healing in nature and agriculture—to illustrate that while science explains how we exist, faith and love explain why we matter. Key Highlights: • The "Hereafter Club" and Huckleberry Finn: Finding humor in the search for meaning. • Newton’s Laws: Why the "pendulum" of society always swings back. • Einstein’s Chauffeur: A lighthearted lesson on intelligence and truth . • The Ultimate Truth: Reflecting on the teachings of Jesus and the power of love. #ScienceAndReligion #Sermon #Truth #Einstein #Darwin #Faith #Nature	Delay
02/08/26	10:00:00	There Are Altars Everywhere		In this soulful sermon, Rev. Jeff Spencer explores the Celtic tradition of "thin places"—those unique locations where the connection to the Divine feels effortlessly close. From the monastic chants of Taizé to the rugged beauty of the Isle of Iona, Rev. Spencer reflects on how these holy grounds shape our spiritual lives. But is holiness reserved only for remote monasteries and mountain peaks? Rev. Spencer challenges us to shift our perspective, suggesting that "thin places" aren't special because of where they are, but because of our ability to notice God's presence within them. In this message, you’ll discover: The history and meaning of "thin places." Why all of creation—even the most ordinary parts of our daily lives—is sacred. How recognizing the world as "holy ground" can lead to healing for our souls and the environment. The call to stop "desecrating" creation and start recognizing the altars that exist all around us. "There are altars everywhere, for everywhere is holy." Join us as we learn to take off our shoes, notice the "burning bushes" in our own backyards, and reconnect with the divine light that permeates all things. #Faith #Spirituality #ThinPlaces #CreationCare #SacredSpace #Sermon	Delay
02/01/26	10:00:00	Service Serves		What does it mean to be "blessed" in a fractured world? Join Rev. Jeff Spencer as he unpacks the Sermon on the Mount and the prophet Micah’s famous call to justice. In this sermon, we explore why Jesus’ first teachings weren't a "how-to manual" of religious chores, but a radical declaration of blessing for those the world often overlooks. Rev. Spencer connects these ancient texts to modern movements of justice, the "loneliness epidemic," and the vital difference between being "nice" and being truly "kind." Key Highlights: The New Moses: Why Jesus brought blessings down the mountain instead of just commandments. Tooth to Tail: Understanding the support roles needed in the work of social justice. Kindred Kindness: Lessons from George Saunders and Trevor Noah on why kindness requires honesty and connection. Humble Walking: A look at the 2,300-mile peace trek as a model for courageous humility. Scripture References: Matthew 5:1-12; Micah 6:1-8 About Niles Discovery Church: We are a progressive community in Fremont, California, seeking to do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with God. #Sermon #Beatitudes #SocialJustice #Micah68 #ProgressiveChristianity #Kindness	Delay
