March 22, 2026 — 10:30 AM Service | ‘Speaking Peace into Chaos’
Pastor Kristin reflected on how chaos—symbolized by stormy waters and Leviathan—shows up in our world and our personal lives, leaving us fearful and locked behind closed doors like the disciples. She reminded us that Jesus enters those places of fear, speaks peace, and breathes the Holy Spirit into us, often through the faith and presence of the gathered community.
