Welcome to the Congregational United Church of Christ

Detroit Lakes, Minnesota

This week's scriptures are:
1 Kings 19: 1-16 & Philippians 4:4-9

Scripture contains a lot stories of people encountering God through visions, dreams, burning bushes, or being swept up to Heaven.  It makes me worry that people feel like if we don't have these experiences, that we aren't encountering God in our lives.  This is why I believe that Elijah's is the most important encounter with God in all of scripture.  Elijah experiences God as a still, small, whisper.  In my experience, this is the most common way to feel God's presence in our lives.  Through meditative experiences.  Through quietness, gentleness, even solitude.  I feel that it's important to lift up these experiences as being real, valid, and scriptural.

​"No matter who you are
or where you are on life's journey,
​you are welcome here!"
