Sunday Service: New Member Sunday

This Sunday, as we celebrate the spiritual journeys of the newest members of Judson's congregation, Micah will invite us all to uncover the continuing revelations of our own lives (especially in a time when white Christian Nationalism continues to hog the mic and dominate the narrative) and lean into the ever-expanding roots of co-creative, justice-minded, radical hope that carry the real story of our ever-evolving tradition.⁠

Split My Soul

Split My Soul

Split My Soul is a riveting dance-theater show that explores the conflict and integration between seven complex characters: The People's Jester, Lady Martyre, Fizzy Head, Mystery Man, Twisted Mistress, The Kid, and Your Inevitable Death. Set to an original score by renowned composer Michael Wall, Split My Soul provides a cathartic visual and sonic experience to unpack mental health challenges and scenarios. Steil believes the theatrical embodiment of internal characters and archetypes can help heal relationships, build empathy for the attributes and tendencies of ourselves and others, and shift perspectives towards the people and stories of our lives.

Sunday Service: Dedicated to the Ones We Love

This Sunday, Micah will facilitate a deep dive into the rituals that have shaped us, the practices that might sustain us, and the habits that we might do well to let go of.
We’ll also commit to the communal care of a brand new human, so come prepared to explore just what the ritual of baptism means, especially in a world that regularly seems to be drowning in despair.

It's also Agape Sunday, so bring something to share at the table and we'll remind ourselves that love for all is the necessary ingredient for sustaining our Radical Hope.

Sunday Service: Holy Horrors

This All Saints Sunday, Micah will be joined by two astonishing artists who have breathed life-giving creativity into Judson's space and who are now two of the top beloved authors in the world of horror. Both Nat Cassidy and Clay McLeod Chapman vibrantly explore some of humanity's deepest shadows, but they also both embody a joy-fueled approach to all things that terrify them and us, offering a balance of spine-tingling images and soul-nurturing inspiration. Whether you're a hardcore fan of scary stories or someone who runs screaming at the thought of them, we'll gather around our sacred circle and explore how honestly befriending our fears just might transform us for the collective liberation work we're all called to do.

Sunday Service: Scared Sacred

This Sunday, as Halloween approaches, Micah will lift up a lifetime love of all things horror, sharing just how special spookiness has been to their faith, their creativity, and their enduringly radical hope. Even if you think you hate “horror” as a genre, we’ll dive into what our traditions tell us about fear, loneliness, and the potential power of connection and community to counter the continuing real-life horrors that surround us.

And if you’d like to play a little dress-up, our little ones will be doing a costume catwalk at the start of the service and all are free to join in the Halloween fun!
