When you get a glimpse of the beauty of the Kingdom, are you willing to trade up the life you have for something truly better?
The words from Jesus this week remind us that we should never settle for the ways of the world, even if it means giving it all up for something far greater.

This week has taken a lot of patience, as we sit on the edge of our seats waiting for crumbs. But what about a world where there is enough for all?
Hear Jesus' vision for a Kingdom where "enough for all" matters more than who wins or loses.

This Sunday's scripture text is one you probably have never heard preached before. Ever.
Sometimes it's called the Parable of the Deceitful Manager, or the Unjust Steward. We're calling it the Generous Trickster. And get this - the liar from the title? He's the hero of the story.
Come hear why Jesus told his disciples they could learn a thing or two from this tricky character.

Ever found something precious?
You might have some insight into the world that God intended. Come hear how stories of lost things can move us from scarcity and isolation into celebration and abundance.

Kicking off our new series, "Upside Down." We'll be hearing all the radical and stranger stories that Jesus told describing what the Kingdom is - a great reversal, a sudden shift in power, a disruption unexpected and beyond our wildest imaginations.
Get a glimpse into the world as it could be, should be, and will be once we are all reconciled in love and liberation.

We noticed that a lot of the people angry at us for supporting Black Lives Matter seem to be pretty queerphobic. And ableist. And misogynist. 
Perhaps that's because, deep down, our haters know that none of us is truly free until we're all free. Liberation is intersectional!
Lucky for us, the Gospel is here for ALL oppressed people, and isn't making us wait in line to get liberated.

We've been receiving a lot of angry letters lately about our support for the prophetic Black Lives Matter movement, our affirmation of God's beloved LGBTQ+ children, and just in general for the ways that we seek to live out the radical Gospel of liberation.
We'd like to take some time to respond to the haters, offering a different perspective on love, justice, and Jesus. Come hang, and see how we are all called to pour out love in the midst of hate.

Our haters have bee throwing out the term "false prophet" a lot. But what does the Bible teach about discerning the Spirit of truth from the spirit of error?

Is God the wrathful vengeance-seeker that human beings make God out to be? Or does God have a different plan for how all this should end?
We'll turn the hate mail on its head as we radically reorient ourselves to the judgment and justice of God.

First up? All the haters who don't think we look, sound, or act like a "real church."

Part of the discipleship path is learning to be part of the Church - encouraging one another, holding confidence in God love together, and spurring one another on towards love and good works.
Join us as we wrap up our Formation series, reflecting especially on Zao MKE's own formation as a church in this season of unrest, resistance, and prophetic calls for liberation.
