Rev. Venida and Forefront’s Climate Justice team are helping to highlight Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day in collaboration with other faith-based communities partnered with GreenFaith — a worldwide, multi-faith climate and environmental movement. GreenFaith’s new initiative, Covenant for Our Future, lifts up Dr. King’s values by calling people of all faiths to promote love and justice through advocacy for policies that ensure the hungry are fed, the sick are cared for, migrants are welcomed, and the earth is protected.

Our Values: Radical Equity | Rev. Venida Rodman Jenkins

Rev. Venida promotes a message of fierce, intentional, radical equity which is the result of the generous, disruptive, and unconditional love of God. The message centers a portion of the story in the Gospel of John where Jesus encounters the Samaritan woman at the well. Jesus goes straight to the place that some people would avoid, and this sermon encourages us to boldly do the same to meet needs and creating access for those who society continues to marginalize.

God as He | Rev. Josh Lee

In this opening week of the series we are invited to see God beyond cultural or biblical views of masculinity that change and differ over time; but instead to see God with a broader lens that draws from Scripture, tradition, reason and experiences. God is not and was not limited to Christ’s body. God manifests Gods self in both Christ's body while also doing so through the spirit, through creation, and through us humans who reflect the diversity and expansiveness of the imago dei... image of God!
