Ready or Not | The Unfinished Confession Matthew 16:13-20 August 23, 2026 Rev. Teer Hardy The church is built on a confession we barely understand, held together by a grace we did not create. And that is enough. Not because our confession is small but because Jesus is so much bigger. The church is unfinished. We are unfinished. And Jesus is still building.

Hidden in the Dough Matthew 13:33 July 26, 2026 Hidden means that God is at work in ways we cannot see, cannot manage, cannot take credit for, and cannot stop. That is grace. Grace is a baby hidden in Bethlehem, while Caesar thinks he is ordering the world. Grace is hidden among fishermen and tax collectors, women and children, lepers and sinners, the sick and the hungry, and the forgotten and the…
Ready or Not: The Seed is the Sermon Matthew 13:1-23 July 12, 2026 Trinity United Methodist Church, Alexandria, VA The scandal is that the Sower knows all of this and sows anyway.

God sows into the world as it is.God sows into the church as it is.God sows into us as we are. Get full…
Rev. Teer Hardy Ready or Not: No One Misses Out Hebrews 12:12-15 July 7, 2026 The urgency of grace is first and foremost the urgency with which God pursues us.

It is the father running down the road toward…

The Airing of Grievances: You Are Hard to Love John 13:31-35 June 7, 2026 Rev. Teer Hardy The gospel is not that we finally become lovable enough for Jesus. The gospel is that Jesus loves us while we are still a mess. So, yes, I’ve got a lot of problems with you people. And God help me, I love you. Because Christ first loved us.

The Wellspring of a New Humanity Matthew 28:16-20 May 31, 2026 Trinity Sunday Rev. Teer Hardy The One who has all authority in heaven and on earth is with us. The crucified and risen One is with us. The Son who reveals the Father is with us. The One who sends the Spirit is…with us. Always. To the end of the age. That is why and how the church can risk being more than an affinity group. That is why…
The Breath of Jesus is the Speech of the Church Genesis 11:1-9 Acts 2:1-21 John 20:19-23 May 24, 2026 Rev. Teer Hardy The church is not Babel with hymns, an organ, and a signup sheet. Nor are we here to make a name for ourselves. The church exists to proclaim the name of Jesus Christ, crucified, risen, and ascended. Living, present, and sending. Yes, we live in a world drowning in words. We are…
