Welcome
“The Church is not a group of people who believe all the same things; the Church is a group of people caught up in the same story, with Jesus at the center."
-Rachel Held Evans
At Magnolia United Methodist Church, church is more than just a building, or a Sunday morning service. All are welcome, to participate in any or all of our commuinities, as you choose, and as you are. Doubter or believer, gay or straight, documented or undocumented, you are welcome here. Together, we make a community, centered on Christ's love, existing to serve God's love and mercy to our neighbors.
This Week's Service (Mar 30, 2025): Lent, Week 4 - Love Without Preconditions
This is our service for the 4th Sunday of Lent. This week we are exploring the transformative journey from judgment to love, drawing insights from Luke 15 and Psalm 32. Today’s message challenges listeners to shift their focus from self-righteousness and worry to an embrace of God's unconditional love. Through a fresh interpretation of familiar parables, the sermon emphasizes God's active pursuit of reconciliation with all people, regardless of their perceived righteousness or sin.
We are invited to reconsider our understanding of repentance, not as a prerequisite for earning God's love, but as a joyful response to His ever-present grace. The message concludes with a call to rest in God's love while actively working to heal broken relationships and extend the same grace to others that God has shown us. In today's service, may you encounter a compelling perspective on how embracing divine love can positively transform our lives and our interactions with the world around us.
