Be En-Couraged, with Rev. Kally Elliott.

A Spacious Christianity

Be En-Couraged, with Rev. Kally Elliott. Series: Re-Shaped A Spacious Christianity, First Presbyterian Church of Bend, Oregon. Scripture: Matthew 14. 22-23, Mark 6:45, John 6:17.

You’re invited to join us this Sunday as we explore Kally Elliot’s powerful message on the immediate and relentless nature of life. Through personal stories and biblical insights, she reminds us that even in our darkest moments, God’s presence and the support of community can be the miraculous lifeline we need. From facing unexpected crises to finding rest in the midst of change, this message offers hope and encouragement for navigating life’s storms. We hope you’ll join us as we reflect on the importance of reaching out and being reached for, and discover the profound truth that “Truly, this is God” working through the hands of those around us. We look forward to seeing you this Sunday.

About the Series, Re-Shaped: Our brains were designed to be suspicious of change, and for good reason – homeostasis in good measure helps us thrive, protecting us from danger. But if we look closely at what the Creator set in motion, we find that change is actually the most constant part of life and necessary for animating our spirits as we find renewed purpose throughout life. Jesus advocated for changes that would keep us moving toward greater goodness!

At First Presbyterian, you will meet people at many different places theologically and spiritually. And we love it that way. We want to be a place where our diversity brings us together and where conversation takes us all deeper in our understanding of God.

We call this kind of faith “Spacious Christianity.” We don’t ask anyone to sign creeds or statements of belief. The life of faith is about a way of being in the world and a faith that shows itself in love.
