Helping you find rootedness.
When you cut down a tree, its rings tell the story of how it’s lived—each year marked, each moment meaningful.
Young adulthood has its own story of growth and change.
People move. Jobs switch. Home evolves. Community is reshaped. Faith is challenged.
We live in the tension of the known and the unknown, wondering how long we’ll stay or where we’ll go next.
Yet through every turn,
God remains constant. Community anchors us. Change refines us.
It’s easy to hold back—to wonder if it’s worth putting down roots when everything feels temporary.
But where you are now matters. Christ is there with you. We are, too.
Let’s grow together.
Let’s get rooted.

I am working in a position that I did not study for, and I think it’s where I’ll be for a while. Will I work in the field for which I studied? Maybe…

For the past 4—5 years, the place where you consider to be “home” has subtly shifted. In addition to the home where your parent(s) and perhaps younger sibling(s) live, your college campus has become a sort of home away from home, and your friend group has become almost like family…
a reflection with Rev. Dr. John Drury.
Fasting is not about proving yourself. It’s about making space. Space for hunger. Space for clarity. Space for joy. Space for Jesus…

We’ve all been there. A friend, coworker, sibling, or stranger says something hurtful that makes you want to lash out. Your boss repeatedly adds responsibilities to your plate without asking if you can handle them.

Growing up near a beach, some of my earliest memories were of being mesmerized by the grooves, ripples, and tidemarks the ocean water had on the beach…

Making decisions is an inevitable part of life. Where we go to college, what major we choose, who we marry, if we marry, where we live... these are huge decisions. And then there are the smaller decisions that matter too…

Yeah I bet a first time job is so weird! Do you have, like, issues with impostor syndrome?”. Heck yeah! One hundred percent…

Stop me if this story gives you that weird feeling of déjà vu. It’s Sunday morning and—like a good Christian—my butt is planted in the church pew. I usually look forward to Sundays. In fact, I’m here because I think this Jesus guy is pretty compelling…
