Pathfinder Church | February 25, 2024 | Dion GarrettGod's values are so expansive that no individual person could pursue all of them, let alone hold them all in tension. Left to ourselves, we'll prioritize the biblical values that come most easily to us, or are most attuned to our own lives and histories. How do we avoid making godly morality something that we each pick and choose for ourselves?

Pathfinder Church | February 18, 2024 | Doug MaussThe American experiment was to create a society not bound by the rigid structures of social class. And yet, it can be uncomfortable to socialize with people who are significantly wealthier—or significantly poorer—than we are. It only seems to promote resentment or envy! Which may be the reason we prefer to live and associate with others who are in the same career field, live in the same neighborhoods, and share the same economic class. How could risking the discomfort—and all the potential faux pas—of associating with those far wealthier or poorer than we are, actually make life richer for all of us?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Pathfinder Church | October 22, 2022 | Dion GarrettIt's encouraging to see and rejoice in other people's successes (just scroll through your Instagram stories), or to have them rejoice in yours. Or in times of struggle, to be able to “share” your struggles with others, knowing that they will be with you “in spirit.” But so few of us have a community that sees, values, and cares for us during ALL the ups and down in life!

Pathfinder Church | October 15, 2023 | AJ MasticWhen we do things well enough in life, we develop a comfortable rhythm. Being in our comfort zone feels good! But if we stay there long enough, we end up complacent, even stagnant. How do we take a steady, predictable life to the next level, without having to feel dissatisfied with or ungrateful for the life we have?

Pathfinder Church | October 8, 2023 | Doug MaussWe make connections with people for all sorts of reasons. Often, we connect over work, or through competition, or based on mutual interests. Social science has shown that we most easily connect over shared anger and outrage. But those kinds of connections don't leave us feeling invigorated and joyful. Is there a more positive way to connect with others?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org
