400 years needs more than Ctrl+ZThis Sunday, August 25, 2019, we are marking as a larger church, 400 years since the first slaves were brought to what we now call the United States. Read More ...
On PilgrimageNot a tour. Not a vacation. Not sight seeing. Pilgrimage is something different. It bears all the hallmarks of those other things, but it’s more. Read More ...
Who we areIf the best we can do in talking about the marvelous power and presence of God in our lives is to say, “we don’t agree with those people,” then we should not be surprised that articles like the one in the Times get published. We cannot expect to define ourselves in opposition and be taken seriously. Read More ...
SafeguardingAs long as our doors are open there is always risk. I am certain, though, that if we close the doors, lock the doors, hunker down in the name of safety, that we will cease to be a church in fairly short order. Read More ...
The Rector’s Study: Prayer Book RevisionIf the response to sexual misconduct at the 79th General Convention made me the most hopeful, then the issue of liturgy, particularly the revision of the Book of Common Prayer...well it showed me how far we still have to go in many ways as a church.

The #Metoo conventionThis General Convention might end up being known as the #Metoo convention. I have hope that we have begun the process of excising this illness and that, if the work can be completed, the church may heal and become whole. Read More ...
General Convention ReflectionsI’ve been reflecting on my experience at General Convention since I got back form Texas. In the next several weeks I’m going to share my thoughts on some of the most important things that I think came out of the Convention, both things that I am really hopeful about and things that make me less hopeful.

The Rector’s Study: Harvey and NashvilleThe response to Hurricane Harvey is similar to the Nashville Statement. If we follow the advice of the angels, if we set aside fear, even in the midst of uncertainty, what dreams might come to pass? Read More ...
Things done, left undoneWhat we saw at Charlottesville may seem like an insurmountable problem. It is not. It begins with us. We must confess the things done and left undone by us and on our behalf. Only then can we go about the work of reconciliation in our communities and country. Read More ...
The Rector’s Study: Rhythm and RepetitionSomeone pointed out to me recently that we repeat the prayers often. It’s true. We say the same words in the Episcopal Church over and over again. What if I don’t feel like the prayers that I’m supposed to say? Saying them over and over again takes these words, the ideas they represent, with rhythm and repetition, and grafts them into our bones, at the very root of who we are. Read More ...
Welcome to Church of the Redeemer: Worshiping God, living in community, and reaching out to the world. We are an Episcopal Church serving north King County and south Snohomish County, Washington. As you travel your road, go with friends walking the way of Jesus at Redeemer.
Church of the Redeemer is at 6210 Northeast 181st Street in Kenmore, Washington. The campus is a short distance north of Bothell Way, near the Burke-Gilman Trail. The entrance looks like a gravel driveway. The campus is larger on the inside than it is on the outside. And we managed to hide a large building on the side of a hill that is not easily seen from the street.
