Last week Pastor Stephanie introduced the Crown of Boasting, this week she asks us to consider another Biblical crown we are given: the Crown of Life. It is a crown we wear here & now and a crown that holds the promise of eternal life. Pastor Stephanie invites us to consider the Life of this crown as a verb, an action word. We should do life every day like the gift that it is, even when it is difficult with the assurance that eternal life has also been gifted to us.

Welcome to Mount Olivet this Palm Sunday, the first day of Holy Week. We commemorate Jesus' entry into Jerusalem amid crowds of people waving palm branches and singing "Hosanna!" It is hard to imagine, in the midst of such celebration, that the praises will turn to jeers, and that Jesus will share one last meal with his disciples before being betrayed.
Jonah - Pastor Stephanie Robison by Ross Wiseman
Welcome to Mount Olivet, a community of hope, reconciliation and love. The message of today's scripture challenges us to do good, to give without expecting anything in return, and to love our enemies. The first two are hard enough, but the third? What could Jesus have meant by love enemies. Certainly not tolerate abuse or ignore wrongdoing. As we ponder the question, let us reflect on the words of 13th-century friar, St Francis of Assisi: "Lord, make me an instrument of your peace: where there is hatred, let me sow love...for it is in giving that we receive."

Welcome to Mount Olivet, a haven for all who seek rest and who long for justice. The call of the prophet Isaiah, millennia ago, is as urgent today as it was then: to preach good news to the oppressed, to tend to the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and to comfort all who mourn. May you find respite here, may you be stirred to act justly, love mercy and walk humbly with God.

Welcome to worship at Mount Olivet! On this last Sunday of Advent, the gospel recalls Mary and Elizabeth, each of whom has received news that she is expecting a child. When Mary enters the house, Elizabeth's baby "leaps in her womb," as though he somehow senses the significance of the one Mary carries: Jesus Emmanuel, God-with-us. As you prepare your heart for worship today, ask yourself, "Does anything leap for joy within me? Can I feel the stirring of new life?"
Pastor Stephanie invites us to consider the big impact a small gift can make when offered out of love and compassion. A meager offering of 5 loaves and 2 fish rippled out across the crowd of 5,000. A simple gesture of caring, like returning a cherished blankie to a frazzled mom and fussy infant, can make a world of difference in the lives of our neighbors. And serving our neighbors from a place of love and compassion lightens the load of ‘Compassion Fatigue' that comes from a place of obligation.
In this sermon, Pastor Stephanie reflected on her childhood experiences in a local church, emphasizing the sense of community and belonging. She encouraged the congregation to consider their own connections to the church, referencing Ephesians 2:20 to highlight the importance of being part of the body of Christ.

Welcome to worship at Mount Olivet! In today's scripture passage, the disciples are caught in a power struggle, arguing over who among them is the greatest. In response, Jesus draws a little child to himself, teaching that greatness comes from serving those who are most vulnerable. Let us draw near to God, trusting that God will draw near to us.
This week we delve into the challenge of not just hearing God's word, but living it out. Pastor Stephanie draws a powerful parallel between our spiritual journey and the incredible story of Erik Weihenmayer, a blind mountaineer who has conquered the world's tallest peaks by listening intently to his guides. Just as Erik's life depends on his ability to listen, so too does our spiritual life depend on our ability to hear, accept, and act on God's word. Join us as we unpack what it means to truly become what the Word says and live a life of teleios—complete, mature, and blessed.
Welcome to worship at Mount Olivet! In today's scripture Jesus refers to himself as the Bread of Life, making the connection back to the manna the Israelites ate as they wandered in the dessert. We are hungry and we long for that which sustains us. Jesus reminds us that, just as God did so long ago, he continues to take care of us and nourish us.

Welcome to worship at Mount Olivet. Today we celebrate Jesus' final entry into Jerusalem: the crowds waving palm branches and proclaiming, “Blessed is the One who comes in the name of the Lord!” We are mindful—even as we joyfully wave our palm branches—that the story will take a dreadful turn; that jubilant hosannas will give way to jeering crowds: “Crucify him!”
Welcome to worship at Mount Olivet. “Whoever you are, you are human. Wherever you are, you live in the world, which is just waiting for you to notice the holiness in it.

Jesus tells us a story, one about a wealthy land owner who goes on a journey and entrusts his riches to his servants. Each is expected not only to protect what has been given to him but to multiply it. Likewise, we are servants of God, called to be good stewards by caring for and multiplying what has been entrusted to us, "each to our own ability."

In the Beyond Charity sermon series, consider with us an approach to community development rooted in CCDA which transforms “you, them, and theirs” to “we, us and ours” which allows us to co-create holistic flourishing in our neighborhoods, cities and beyond. Today, Pastor Stephanie shares how instead of coming with a quick-fix solution, we need to hear and answer the call of God to put ourselves in direct, personal relationship with others to discover the felt needs of the people. The components of relocation, listening to the community and mutuality guide us unlearning our instinct to quick-fixes. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wellingtonheightschurch/support
