Joy to the world

Hillsong Worship

We live in a world where the darkest chapters of history and even our personal lives have shaped or worsened by religion. And so, Pastor Brian wraps up our Losing My Religion series with a BOGO sermon! Time and time again Jesus challenges religious norms and offers a way with genuine faith, love, and inclusion. So, Pastor Brian encourages us to question the devices that drive us to judge, exclude, and prioritize rituals over compassion. True Religion is about caring for the oppressed, embodying grace, and doing the work to heal and restore the here and now!
It’s easy to “preach” a righteous judgmental God, but when we start talking about how big and inclusive his love truly is, the “Pharisees” get mad. Pastor Brian beautifully navigates the delicate line between faith and religion. Showing us how Jesus tried to push the religious away from judgement towards grace.

This series is an invitation to step into a life mirrored after Jesus — a life marked by inclusion, love, and a commitment to the marginalized.

Are you struggling with the complexities of faith, identity, and belonging when it comes to religious institutions? Well this series is for you! It’s not just a critique on religion, but an intriguing vision of what it means to truly embody the teachings of Jesus. Prepare to be challenged, inspired, and possibly transformed as you consider what it means for you to lose your religion.
