Pastors Rick Mckinley and Michelle Jones kick off our new series walking through the theology of our new mutualist position.
The blessings God speaks over creation in Genesis 2 reveal His ongoing, life-giving care for us. Day seven of the creation story is a celebration of God’s creative work. We continue to observe this sacred pause in the rhythm of our work to remember who we belong to. Pastor Rick McKinley continues our series.
The world of Genesis resists scientific reduction and mythological fantasy. It is neither anti-science nor anti-mystery. Join us as we find ancient answers to the big questions still relevant today. Pastor Rick McKinley begins our series, Genesis: The God-breathed Life.
While what we celebrate at Easter—the resurrection of Jesus Christ—remains steadfast, we acknowledge that this year looks and feels different. For over a year, we have carried the burdens of worldwide sickness, deep loss, anxiety and polarization. We cannot gloss over these struggles, but we can create space for honest conversation and honest stories about who Jesus is. In our cultural moment, we’ve seen Jesus invoked to serve worldly agendas that differ greatly from the Jesus we see in Scripture—the One who set the ultimate example of unconditional love and radical reconciliation. We believe this real Jesus has real hope to offer us today. After you watch the service, we invite you to bring your questions, thoughts and curiosity to any of our follow-up opportunities.

The way we treat and relate to one another matters deeply because we are living witnesses of Christ to the world. Pastor Mike Dean concludes our series, Colossians: Christ Our Life. Call to Worship Prayer for our Schools, Parents, Kids, Teachers & Administrators: Spirit of God, We ask that You would grant us eyes to see and ears to hear the places You are interested in making much of our vocations. For the family of God, humble our hearts that we would put on love and thankfulness. Shape us into people who are constantly speaking wisdom and truth to one another for the building up of Your body under the headship of Christ. And by this love that we find in Christ, may we live wisely among those who do not yet believe in order that we might make the most of every opportunity. May all our words be gracious and attractive, so that many more will come to dwell in Your presence.
Luke 19:1-10"As we move closer to the cross for Easter, may we know the power of the gospel. May we go all in on the right kingdom and quit chasing the things of the kingdom of this world. May we care more about others, about love, about a world where everyone is seen and treated as a child of God rather than pursuing power, beauty, money, success and all of the things this world says matter."Monologue was written by Rick McKinley from the Imago Dei Community, Imago Dei is a non-denominational church in SE Portland, striving to love God, each other and our neighbors well.
Pastor Michelle Jones continues our series, Colossians: Christ Our Life. In Colossians 1:15-20, we find Paul’s clearest picture of Christ's authority and sovereignty over all things, and particularly the Church.
This Sunday, Pastor Michelle Jones begins our new series, Freedom through Forgiveness. Forgiveness is not quick, easy work. In this introductory message, Michelle explores what forgiveness is AND what it’s not.
This Sunday is the start of Advent, the season in which we anticipate the coming of our Savior at Christmas. This year, our Advent sermon series seeks to connect Israel’s anticipation for the Messiah leading up to the birth of Jesus and our own longings as we wait for Christ to come again. How do we pray between these two Advents?
Description: As Kingdom Citizens, we are called to be agents of healing in the world. At the close of an election that has shown us how severely divided we are as a nation, God’s people have work to do. We must not lose sight of each other’s humanity—no matter how different our views and experiences—and practice loving each other with sincerity, honor, goodness, and devotion. Pastor Rick McKinley continues our series.

What do we do with the tension between this hope-filled process and the reality of the brokenness that exists within us and within our world? Pastor Rick McKinley continues our Jars of Clay series.
August 9th, 2020How do we resist the constant pull toward distraction in our on-demand, technology-filled culture? What’s really at stake in this struggle over what we allow to capture our attention? AJ Swoboda returns to wrap up our sermon series.

April 19th, 2020What difference does it make that Jesus rose from the dead? For many of us, the resurrection of Jesus means little more than the guarantee of going to heaven after we die. We can miss how foundational the resurrection is to Christian life. This Sunday, we begin RISEN, a new series that will take us through the book of 1 Corinthians, exploring why the resurrection matters and how it can powerfully shape the way we live right now. We encourage you to take some time this week and read 1 Corinthians. Notice Paul's references to resurrection, the second coming of Jesus, the references to the future judgment of Christ, etc. Wherever Paul points to the future, make a note of it! This will help us as we study together in the coming weeks. To watch this sermon online and follow along with our liturgy you can go to IDCPDX.COM/ONLINE

From the Race & Justice Lecture Series. As racial tension continues to build, this is the beginning of an ongoing conversation about how we, as followers of Jesus, can best respond. Listen to the lecture from writer and speaker Mark Charles, in partnership with Imago Dei Community, as we lament the racial injustice that continues to haunt this nation.

Terra and Leo are my friends. Terra is a successful working Mom of two. While working and raising the Kids with Jeff, one of my good friends, and the kid's Dad. (Papa as they call him.) Terra had a Christian upbringing through the Foursquare denomination. As a native of Portland Oregon, she attended Imago Dei Community. Upon moving to Seattle, it seemed like Mars Hill Church was the best option in attending a church in the Seattle area that might be like how Imago Dei was in Portland. We can all just imagine how that ended up going. Which in turn, led her not to ascribe to Christianity anymore. Being a former Christian, now recovering Jesus follower myself, I find her story to be all too common these days. The story's like Terra's need to be told. They need to be heard, and they need to be sympathized with so that we can become a better functioning common humanity. A humanity not divided by religion and race, doctrine and dogma. Now in raising two kids, Terra and Jeff have never told the kids about God, but Leo has come up with some conclusions of his own. This well-behaved, rad six-year-old boy joins his mom, shares why he doesn't swear, why he wants to be a good boy, and how he can love his sister even though she may not be, "as well behaved" as he is. THIS EPISODE IS AWESOME! Because Leo continues to steal the show!
