A Glimpse of Glory

A Word for the Week Ahead

There are weeks when faith feels simple. Your heart feels steady. Prayer comes easily. You feel grounded—like you know where you’re standing and why.


And then there are weeks when it doesn’t.


Life gets loud. The calendar fills up. The worries creep back in. The world feels sharp around the edges. And even if we can’t always name it, we can feel the weight of it.


That’s why I’m grateful for this Sunday’s readings. Both Exodus 24 and Matthew 17 place us on a mountain—not as an escape from real life, but as a reminder that God can meet us with clarity, strength, and perspective when we need it most. These passages hold together two things we often separate: God’s holiness and God’s nearness. Awe and comfort. Mystery and mercy.


And maybe that’s what many of us need right now—not easy answers, not quick fixes, but a deeper steadiness. The kind that comes when we remember who God is… and who we are in God.


If you’re feeling tired, stretched thin, uncertain, or simply hungry for something solid—consider this your invitation.


Come worship with us this Sunday. Come as you are. Let the prayers carry you. Let the music open a window. Let the Scriptures speak in their own way and time. And let’s ask God for the kind of light that doesn’t disappear when the week begins again.

They were still looking up. We are living in the between — after the Ascension, before Pentecost. Come back to the room. The Spirit is on the way.

Read the second chapter of Acts carefully and you will notice something the Sunday school version tends to smooth over: the disciples were not ready.

Jesus says he won't leave us orphaned. But some weeks, that promise is held by faith alone. A reflection for the Sixth Sunday of Easter.

The building faces the street for a reason. A church that exists only for the people inside it has forgotten what it is for.

Stephen is about to die. He knows it. The stones are already in people's hands. And he looks up, and someone is standing. That is a claim about the nature of God

By Lee Davis April 27, 2026
When we gather around the Eucharist table every Sunday, we are continuing a practice that was, from its very beginning, a political act.

Jesus the gentle shepherd, leading his flock. It's Good Shepherd Sunday, and we know exactly what to expect. Except this year I kept reading.

By Lee Davis April 8, 2026

The tomb was empty. Nobody has ever been able to explain it. And everything that follows — flows from that one inconvenient, impossible, world-altering fact.
