God is NowHere

October 7, 2012 Rev. Lauren Kilbourn

Job 1:1:2:1-10
On Friday night I had the opportunity to attend Green Hope High School’s homecoming game. What stood out to me while I was at that game was not necessarily the football; they didn’t do so hot in that, but it was the band.

If You Can’t Say Anything Nice…

September 16, 2012 Rev. Lauren Kilbourn

Proverbs 1:20-33

You Are Sent

You Are Sent

April 15, 2012 Rev. Lauren Kilbourn

A few years back I was working for a church as their youth director. Because the church was much smaller than St. Paul’s, my job was mainly to supervise the students on Sunday night and to provide pastoral care when it was needed…

Easter Vigil 2012

Easter Vigil 2012

April 7, 2012 Rev. Lauren Kilbourn
