Awaken Westchester Church

Slow Church Week 6 - Work

Work, when done well, is meant to be a filling, satisfying experience that brings beauty and meaning to the world we live in. Yet, work can often be seen as a slog that drains life from our souls and creates systems that dehumanize others. Join us this week as we discuss how to find the work you have been created to do and offer others the best gift you have to give.

Wholeness

Within all of us there exists an ache. An ache for all that has been broken, whether within us or the world around. At the heart of the Christian faith is the belief that through Jesus, God is making all things whole by restoring all that has been broken. Listen this week as we explore how living with this awareness changes us as well as how we engage the world.

Patience

Contrary to our culture of speed, the way of Jesus is marked by a slow, patient journey. In that journey we come to discover grace and compassion for ourselves and others. Listen as we discover how God works through this slow, patient process.

Stability

What does a life of stability look like?  How can we put down roots within the places we inhabit to create lasting, meaningful change in our communities.  Listen now as we talk about the power that comes through stability.   

Just one Awaken, just one you

Church is not a product.  It is a unique expression of faith that organically comes into being through the surrounding community and people who call that church their home.  That uniqueness is also true about you.  No one person is alike and no one's spiritual path is the same.  Listen as we talk about what makes Awaken unique and how you can step into the unique expression of humanity that you are.  

A foundation upon which to build

This week we began exploring the book Slow Church in order to paint a picture of who we as a church desire to be.  What is Awaken's mission and how are we living it out here in Westchester?  Listen now as we begin this new phase of Awaken's journey!

The Church

What does it mean to be the church?  How has our culture turned church into something other than its original purpose?  Listen as our guest speaker Gio Sanchez explores God's true desire for the church.

A Testimony for the Journey

Guest Speaker Joe Florio

Listen as we explore Psalm 124 and look at the importance of remembering the past moments God has proven faithful in our lives.

Next Question?

Guest speaker Joe Mrugalski

Join us as we explore an age old question voiced by the prophet Habakkuk about why bad things happen in life?

The Power of Blessings and Curses

This week we wrap up our series on Noah by looking at how the blessings and curses Noah spoke over his sons shaped the people they became.
