This month, we want to take a look back at the remarkable things God has been able to release in our church through the generosity of our community. In 2022, we committed part of our Living the Liturgy Offering to becoming a church that could serve as a patron of the arts and cultivate a community of redemptive artists. We invite you to check out the impact your giving has had over the last few years in the recording. Through your generosity, forty artists have been commissioned to create new work to bless our church and this city in just two years. We are so grateful for the generosity of this community, and we want to say thank you to everyone who has given through the years; this is your fruit! You can learn more about Living the Liturgy, and how to give today at church.nyc/give.

Making Sense of Church | The City on a Hill - Guy Mason
This Sunday, guest Pastor Guy Mason continued our sermon series, Making Sense of the Church, with a teaching on the Church as the City on a Hill. Anchored in Jesus' teaching in Matthew 5 commissioning His people to be the light of the world and a city set on a hill, we are reminded of our calling to pursue a life of undivided worship and Christ-centered holiness as a witness to the world. As we become a people set apart and built together in love to push back darkness with light, we can rest in the knowledge that this calling is simply a continuation of the perfect work Jesus began in and for us.

Living The Liturgy 2025 // Thank You for the Next Generation
This month, we want to take a look back at the remarkable things God has been able to release in our church through the generosity of our community. In 2021, we committed to investing a significant portion of this offering to building out our Next Gen Ministry, and we invite you to listen to the impact your giving has had over the last few years in the recording. Through your generosity, our Next Gen Ministry has not only radically blessed our own church, but is becoming a blessing to the city. We are so grateful for the generosity of this community that is for the Next Generation. We want to say thank you to everyone who has given through the years; this is your fruit!

Making Sense of Church | The Army - Suzy Silk
This Sunday, Pastor Suzy Silk continued our sermon series, Making Sense of the Church, with a teaching on the Church as an Army. In the book of Ephesians, Paul describes a spiritual battle believers are engaged in and how God has prepared us to fight together for the expansion of His Kingdom. On the cross, Jesus defeated Satan, sin, death, and hell and has sent out His disciples in His authority to declare His victory. In light of this, we are able to stand firm in the faith, knowing that He has rescued us, brought us into His kingdom, and we await the day He will return in His full glory.

Making Sense of Church | The Priesthood - Suzy Silk
This Sunday, Pastor Suzy Silk continued our "Making Sense of Church" Series by calling us to take up our roles as priests in the Kingdom of God. Like the priesthood of ancient Israel, we are called to stand apart in the world as examples of God's holy love and goodness. As priests under the New Covenant, we should be living in such a way that compels people to ask questions, and actively join Jesus in expanding the priesthood by sharing about God's story and His Kingdom to people who do not yet know Him.
