“Getting to Know God: Reason”Text: Acts 17:16-34 This week, our sermon series about getting to know God looks at the use of reason. It is not the means by which we get to God, but is the tool by which we interpret how God has been revealing himself through Scripture. God calls us to engage…

“Getting to Know God: Scripture”Text: 1 Peter 1:12-21Today we continue our series of “Getting to Know God” by looking at the role of scripture. The scriptures contain words of those who saw firsthand how God acted in their lives. Peter argues that all scriptures point us to Jesus, and that His Spirit wants to continue…

Getting to Know God: TraditionText: Mark 7:1-23We begin a new five week sermon series entitled “Getting to Know God,” where we will be looking at ways in which we might find practices to grow in our faith and come to understand who God is. In this week’s scripture lesson, Jesus critiques tradition for the sake…

Text: John 10:1-10Old Testament prophets frequently employ the imagery of shepherds when speaking about the rulers of the land who are entrusted with the lives of those around them. Today's passage has Jesus using similar imagery when He calls Himself the gate; He is saying that the way to knowing God and being right with…

“Luke 24:13-35”We continue celebrating the resurrection with the story of Jesus interacting with Cleopas and the other traveler on the road to Emmaus. After recognizing Jesus through the breaking of bread, they acknowledged that they felt something “burning” while talking with Him on the road. We are also invited to look for the presence of…

Text: John 20:19-31In today’s passage, Jesus appears to His disciples in the midst of their fear and He brings words of peace to them. Jesus empowers the Church with the Holy Spirit to live faithfully in a world in which they are afraid, where the powers that be are adverse to the way of God.…

“Our Easter Message”Text: Acts 10:34-43This Easter Sunday, we celebrate the new birth and freedom from sin that comes from the resurrection of Jesus. Peter reminds us that even after the resurrection, Jesus remained one of us and that God’s grace reaches precisely to where we are.

Text: Psalm 118On Palm Sunday, we celebrate and honor Christ as King, our deliverer, and our Messiah. Psalm 118 is quoted in all four Gospels during Jesus' Triumphal Entry and Jesus embodies the hope of deliverance from the cries of the psalmist, the Jewish people, and us today.

Rev. Hope Twitchell brought the Word as she shared her call to Thailand. We seek God's Kingdom first. God will direct us from there!

“Back Side of the Cross: Adoption”Text: Romans 8:1-17In the last week of our short series on the Back Side of the Cross, we look at Romans 8. As Paul describes, we receive the full benefits of being a part of God’s family when we receive a spirit of adoption, including a personal salvation that says…

“Back Side of the Cross: Forgiveness”Text: Luke 17:1-10This week's passage from Luke teaches us that forgiveness comes after the hard work of repentance. God is with us to free us from the power of shame, guilt, and the ways of this world. To live as the people of God, we must learn to love, forgive,…

“Back Side of the Cross: Atonement”Text: Acts 2:17-24As we begin a new series, Pastor Tim asks us to try looking at what Jesus did on the cross from a new perspective. We are used to looking at the cross and thinking what it means for “I, the sinner.” What does it mean to look at…

“Openness and Obedience when God Speaks”Text: Genesis 12:1-4How does Abram model obedience when he is called by God? Pastor Eric Larsen joins us again this week and suggests that obedience requires continual action – a willing participation in what He wants us to do, no matter the cost. Through Abram's obedience, his faith grew and…

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) oversees more than 12 million acres in Arizona alone. And much like the rest of the West, it has public lands making up national monuments that hold value for tribes. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, President Donald Trump's pick to run BLM pledged to respect them in his confirmation hearing this week. During his first term, President Trump shrank the size of Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante in Utah – only for President Joe Biden to restore them and name 10 new ones. Former U.S. Rep. Steve Pearce (R-NM) answered “yes” when asked about whether he was committed to honoring those sites by U.S. Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA), who thanked the nominee for his “great” and “short, clear, concise, and on-the-record” answer. Pearce added that “the Native Americans sometimes are overlooked from Washington and …” when Sen. Padilla interrupted with, “And not just sometimes, far too often”. Pearce then noted “We became a voice for them, and would continue to do that.” Pearce doubled down when U.S. Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) asked about Arizona's Baaj Nwaavjo I'tah Kukveni, which President Biden created near the South Rim in 2023. “The Grand Canyon, it's one of the most magnificent things, frankly, in the world. So we'll do whatever we can to work with you any way that's necessary.” X̱'unei Lance Twitchell teaching pre-kindergarten students. (Courtesy Ryan Conarro) Language educators in Juneau are working to create a Master's in Teaching program for teaching Indigenous languages at the University of Alaska Southeast. It would be the first of its kind in Alaska. KTOO’s Yvonne Krumrey reports. Lingít language professor X̱'unei Lance Twitchell talked about the possible future degree program during KTOO's Juneau Afternoon. “My colleague Éedaa Heather Burge and I are collaborating to create a certificate in teaching Indigenous languages, and as we look at how our language is taught in Alaska, who teaches them, what are their qualifications? What are they permitted to do in the current school systems? And what they’re permitted to do is just not enough.” The program would be for those who want to go into teaching Alaska Native languages to all ages. There are more than 20 distinct Indigenous languages throughout the state. Twitchell said the program still has some steps ahead of it before prospective students can enroll. “This degree has to go before the Board of Regents, and so we’re very hopeful that they will see the value in it. They’ll see the need. They’ll see the demand. I think it’s maybe one of two programs that are like it, perhaps in all of North America.” Twitchell said, while Southeast Alaska Native languages have endured and continue to grow, they should still be prioritized – and with urgency – by schools and communities. “But to be able to get to that is going to take some monumental shifts in the way that we do things, which is really hard today, because one of the things that a colonial government likes to do is pretend that there’s no time, there’s no money, everything’s already spoken for.” Twitchell said this program would create more pathways for educators who can advocate for time, money, and effort to go into revitalizing Indigenous languages. He said the program would focus on the “hows” of teaching Indigenous languages: how to create schools, build programs, and what materials to use. University officials are currently reviewing the proposal. After that, it'll be up to the University of Alaska Board of Regents to decide whether to approve the program. Meda DeWitt (Tlingit) is running for governor as an independent. (Courtesy DeWitt campaign) A 17th candidate has entered the Alaska governor’s race. Alaska Public Media’s Liz Ruskin has more. Meda DeWitt is a traditional healer, drawing on her Tlingit heritage. She teaches at the University of Alaska. She is running as an independent candidate, unaffiliated with any party. “I care about our future. I care about the way that we steward our lands and want to see a state that has a thriving ecosystem and healthy communities that can live in perpetuity.” In 2021, DeWitt chaired a campaign to recall Gov. Mike Dunleavy (R-AK). The petition gathered more than 60,000 signatures but fell short of the number needed for a recall election. Her campaign website lists a wide array of priorities, from cost of living to health care to the state economy. DeWitt lives in Anchorage and has family roots in Wrangell and Yakutat, as well as relatives around the state. The August 18 primary will feature a long list of gubernatorial candidates, most running with the Republican label. In the primary, voters can choose just one. The top four candidates, of any party, will advance to the November ballot. General election voters will have the option of ranking up to four candidates.

“Fully Embracing a Foolish Message”Text: 1 Corinthians 1:18-25We welcome Pastor Eric Larsen back to the pulpit as this week’s guest preacher. What are the messages that come from the cross of Jesus? For Rome, it was capital punishment; for the Jews, rejection. For those who are saved, it is the transformative power of God on…

Send a textIt's a brand new chapter for Broadway Besties. This week, Mark introduces listeners to Carson Twitchell, a passionate Broadway superfan, sharp opinion-holder, and the newest voice joining the show as co-host. From the shows that shaped him to the performers he worships (and the ones he definitely does not), Carson doesn't hold back. The two dive into favorite musicals, controversial takes, dream revivals, and the hot opinions that will either unite fans or start a full-blown theater war. Plus, Mark and Carson discover where they're perfectly in sync and where they completely clash. It's funny, honest, a little chaotic, and the perfect kickoff to a fresh era of Broadway Besties.

“Living as God’s People: Work of God’s People – February 15, 2026”Text: 1 Corinthians 3:1-23In 1 Corinthians, Paul addresses the early Church which is still figuring out how to be faithful. Paul discourages quarreling and jealousy, explaining that all of us must work together for God, caring for one another and those that the world…

(Feb 9, 2026) A new state proposal could change how people with disabilities experience the Adirondack wilderness; Democratic state lawmakers are pushing the New York for All legislation, an alternative to the bill to limit federal immigration agents' authority; and the Twitchell Lake Association in the southern Adirondacks has spent months compiling the lake's social, natural, and even legal history, and are publishing it all on a new website.

“Living as God's People: Proclamation of God's People”Text: 1 Corinthians 2:1-16Paul continues the message of God’s wisdom that was introduced in last week’s passage. When we proclaim the Good News, we share this wisdom based on the cross – an act of self-sacrifice and love that meets us where we are – to a world…

“Living as God’s People: Wisdom of God’s People”Text: 1 Corinthians 1:18-31In today's passage from 1 Corinthians, Paul speaks about wisdom and how God uses the weak things of the world to shame the strong. Jesus' crucifixion embodies God's wisdom – we must embrace the cross as the fullest expression of God’s love for us.

“Living as God’s People: Unity of God's People”Text: 1 Corinthians 1:10-17We continue our look at 1 Corinthians with Paul encouraging the church to be united. This call to unity is one based in the gospel of Christ and God’s grace over all that might divide them.

“Living as God’s People: Preservation of God’s People”Text 1 Corinthians 1:1-9Today we begin a study of the book of 1 Corinthians. Paul's greeting to the church in Corinth testifies to how God is involved in our lives to help direct and guide us to be the people He wants us to be. We are called…

Baptism of the Lord SundayText: Matthew 3:13-17In going to John the Baptist to be baptized, we recognize that Jesus is one of us. This sign of a life lived completely for God is a model for us; that our lives and our direction also should be lived in complete obedience and faithfulness to God.

(Jan 9, 2026) A new website documents the lake's social, natural, and legal history. It's a project that could help other communities compile their own stories, too.

“An Alternative Way”Text: Matthew 2:1-12Today is Epiphany Sunday, where we celebrate that God revealed Himself to the wise men, and still works today to reveal His plan of peace and salvation for the world.  Just as the Magi sought another route after worshipping Jesus, we too are to seek an alternate route from the ways…

“These Words Still Speak”Text: Matthew 2:13-15As Joseph is warned in a dream to flee to Egypt to save Jesus from Herod, Matthew’s Gospel quotes the book of Hosea; “Out of Egypt I called my son.” This reference to older scripture not only highlights parallels to the Exodus story, but also establishes that the life of…

Text: Matthew 1:18-25On this, the fourth Sunday of Advent, we hear the beginning of Matthew’s account of Jesus’ birth. The story is meant to tie Jesus, the Messiah, to the promise for all of God’s people, to the prophecy of God’s redemption and the peace and love to be found in Him. Knowing God happens…

Text: Matthew 11:2-11In response to the imprisoned John the Baptist’s question about who Jesus is, Jesus tells John’s followers about the things that are happening through Him. Like them, we are invited to see Jesus as the Messiah and the One who hears our cries, knows our prayers, shines light in the darkness, and remembers…

Text: Matthew 3:1-13Today’s scripture is a familiar passage where John the Baptist helps the people of his time prepare for Christ’s coming into the world. It is written for us, the people of today, as well – it calls us forth to allow the Holy Spirit to work in us. Pastor Tim encourages us to…

Text: Matthew 24:36-44As we begin the season of Advent, we recognize that sometimes we accept that the world is broken and just wait for Jesus to come again to fix things. However, the coming of Jesus and the expectation of His return isn’t an escape; it’s the fulfillment of a lifetime of preparation. We can…

“Christ the [Conquered] King”Text: John 12:9-19On this Christ the King Sunday, Pastor Tim shares John's account of the Triumphal Entry and reexamines the significance of Jesus riding a donkey by putting it in context with prior historical events. It shows that even in apparent defeat, God's grace meets us where we are in life and…

Text: Luke 21:5-19The end of all things – even beautiful ones – is inevitable, as Jesus says about the Temple, but looking for signs of when this happens is not where our attention is supposed to be directed. Instead, we are called to endure through moments by living in the hope of God’s continued provision.…
