Worship: Temples of God’s Presence

Ephesians 2:11-22; Isaiah 2:1-4; John 2:13-22 | Ever been asked: “what church do you go to?” Especially within 21st century America, “church” has become synonymous with a location, a place, perhaps even a building. But “church” was never intended to be a singular location, or even somewhere we “go.” Instead, “church” is a body of people on the move, living as God’s holy temple. So, as people called to follow after Jesus – called into God’s promises and called out to extend the hope of God’s Kingdom, join us this weekend as we dwell in God’s presence, and as we are sent out to be God’s presence wherever we are.

Sunday, February 1 2026, Fourth Sunday of Epiphany
