Weekly Devotional
Our Weekly Devotionals are sent out every Saturday morning. They are written by different members of our McCurdy community, from staff to board members, to volunteers. Each devotional includes a Scripture reading and a reflection from the author on what it means to them.

Love In Any Language by Rev. Jeanie Williams
Tomorrow the church celebrates the Day of Pentecost, 50 days after Jesus’ resurrection, when the presence of God’s Spirit palpably filled the place where Jesus’ disciples were gathered, in the form of wind and fire, speaking loudly and clearly through them for all to hear, each from diverse places and circumstances, hearing God’s words in their own native language, each understanding clearly what was spoken to them.

The Lord God Will Be with You by Sheri Trujillo
Joshua 1:9 commands, “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”
Recently I have had a few people in my life get a cancer diagnosis. This is a challenging thing to deal with, and I pray that all goes well with the treatments and with their spirit. I can imagine this can break someone’s spirit, but I also know that with God anything is possible. The Faith that I have seen in these individuals is pretty awesome.

Rethinking Barabbas Love by Rev. Steve Trout
Teaching a Bible study should be as revelatory for the teacher as it is for the student. In the Study I teach every Wednesday, we have been in the Gospel of John for the past three months. I really study for each session so I can stay ahead of my students. I have read more commentaries cover to cover in the past three years than in all my 40-year career. Retirement gives me the time that a busy ministry would not allow. Last week I stumbled upon something that shook up my understanding of one of Scripture’s most mysterious characters, Barabbas.

Being Open to Change by Glenn Tombaugh
Jesus' incognito appearance on the road to Emmaus is one of the most heart-warming accounts in all the gospels. His followers were confused and frightened by all the events surrounding his arrest and crucifixion. They were even more confounded with reports of an empty tomb and resurrection appearances.
