#OpenHeartsOpenFaith
“And that's and that's a great image for us because Christ is with us. As you and I journey through life, God doesn't abandon us. God's with us. Keeping our minds open, excited at new possibilities, new revelations of our faith. And so then let us continue on our journey through life, yoked to Christ, experiencing new ideas, new revelations as we travel together, growing closer to God, keeping our minds open and our hearts open to the presence of God.”
34s
“And this commander accept worship, and then he tells Joshua to remove his sandals because the ground he is standing on is holy, which is echoing the same thing that was said to Moses when God spoke to him out of the burning bush. Mhmm. So you put those two things together, plus the title, the commander of the Lord's armies, and you get this very idea that that Joshua is speaking to God more specifically to a pre incarnate Christ. Yeah.”
42s
“Jesus explains that suffering was necessary for him, That glory comes through sacrifice. He was explaining them that all scripture points to him. One of the things that, I've been taught in regards to being a pastor is every single passage and every single message should point back to Jesus because that's all of scripture. It all points to who he is and what he has done. And he sits as he's walking with these disciples, he starts to unpack for them the importance of who he was.”
49s
“And someone's need shall in you meet solution. All by the grace of God, not always and always, but in the right moment, in the fullness of its own time, the power shall be given unto you. This is the reason we celebrate the ascension of the risen Christ. It is the day of Christ's blessing on all of us. The day of the promise of the gift of power from on high that will surely come to each of us. Thanks be to God. Amen.”
51s
“I think about like giving my little kids a device, and at the touch of the device, it can go anywhere. Are there places I don't want my kids going on a device? Why? Because they're dangerous. They're dangerous. They're detrimental. Why? Because the world is in decay. Morals are in decay. And so we stand on God's word. We stand up in a world where honor is in decay. We honor God. We honor our parents.”
46s
“May God, who by the resurrection of his only begotten son, was pleased to confer on you the gifts of redemption and of adoption, give you joyfulness by his blessing. May he, by whose redeeming work you have received the gift of everlasting freedom, make you heirs to one eternal inheritance. And may you who have already risen with Christ in baptism through faith by living in a right manner on this earth be united with him in the homeland of heaven.”
70s
#LiveFromFavor
“At once, that means immediately, the moment he heard that affirmation, the Holy Spirit sent Jesus into a desert. In other words, into a tough season, into a big giant divine task where he was tempted by Satan for forty days. The reason why he did this is because remember the Israelites disobeyed and died in the wilderness after forty years. He was basically recreating the Israelite journey in this, and then going back into the promised land. Okay? So I I don't get lost in the details. It's really profound though how Jesus, he he he went right into difficulty, not out of guilt, shame, obligation, not out of pressure, but fueled by the father's pleasure. And I believe that's how God designed us to live out. We're we're fueled by the pleasure of God. We don't work for a place of favor, we work from a place of favor. We don't strive to earn God's love. We strive to reflect God's love. It's not an action. It is a reaction, and it's way more fun when you understand how the father feels about you on any given day.”
26s
#GriefChangesYou
“So how do we heal from grief? When will we be over it? The true answer is we can't and we won't. Grief and loss change us forever. Each new occurrence is the first time, and we are not the same afterward. There isn't a lesson to be learned. It's not a test, a gift, or a blessing. Loss is simply what happens to us in life. The meaning comes from what we make happen afterward.”
33s
#IsaacAndTheRam
“There, he leads Isaac up, and Isaac carries his wood, carries his cross. Right? There, he's laid to die, and and god provides a ram stuck in thorns by his crown. Right? And the and that ram becomes a substitute for Isaac so that Isaac doesn't have to die. The ram dies in his throne. I mean, there's just so much beauty to that narrative. You can't say that was by accident.”
30s
#BaptismAndResurrection
“But the good news of Easter, the joy we celebrate every time we remember our baptisms, is that death may come for us all, but it can never defeat us. And so death need not constrain our hopes for living, our generosity in serving our neighbors, and our faithfulness and love. That just as it was impossible, as Saint Peter told us, for Jesus to be held in the power of death, it's impossible for anything to separate us from the love of God.”

Why Bloomington churches are unique

With a family-friendly suburban layout bordered by the Minnesota River Valley and dotted with parks and trails, churches in Bloomington often align with community rhythms like school calendars and weekend sports. That translates into ministries with robust family and youth programs, a strong emphasis on neighborhood-based small groups, and seasonal efforts in outdoor service and creation care that connect faith with the city’s natural spaces.
Bloomington’s growing cultural diversity shapes worship and outreach, as neighborhoods welcome new Americans from multiple continents alongside long-time residents. Many Bloomington churches offer multilingual worship and translation, practical helps like ESL and citizenship classes, and intentional cross-cultural community outreach that reflect the city’s global character.
Proximity to the Mall of America, MSP Airport, and major employers means a mix of hospitality workers, travelers, and commuters—and flexible schedules. In response, churches in Bloomington frequently provide flexible service times for shift workers, cultivate college student ministries connected to nearby campuses, and lean into engaging formats such as modern worship with contemporary band that resonate with young adults and professionals.
