Check out Pastor Bernard and Kyle’s interview on the Praise Hands podcast with our friend, Robby Valderrama! We talk about the origins of Tapestry Church, some challenges we’ve faced so far, and where some of our growing edges are as a community. You can watch the video here or listen on Spotify or iTunes.

I have to be honest--I kind of enjoy putting out fires. Not actual fires, but ministry fires, work fires, task fires. When something has to get done NOW I don’t have time to think, to prioritize, to second-guess. I just get it done...and it’s done! It feels satisfying, efficient, and important. 

Crappy Dinners. 

Have you heard of these? 

Apparently, they’re designed to dismantle the pressure that many people feel when faced with the prospect of having people over for dinner. Maybe you are familiar with it - the almost compulsive need to clean up the house to make it presentable; to use the “fancy” glasses; to cook something “special”, but pull it off as normal. Crappy Dinners are supposed to challenge that compulsion, and in the face of guests arriving, invite you to not to tidy up, and not to cook anything out of the ordinary.
