TOMORROW and tomorrow and tomorrow

April 16, 2023 - June 5, 2023

As we gear up for our 10th birthday celebration, and invite a lot of our favorite former voices into worship, we’re thinking about what comes next. Like, if we imagine Galileo Church in this world God still loves in 5, 10, 50, or 500 years, what are we imagining? What touch points from scripture are funding that imagination?

Galileo in 40 Years. Josh Bridges-Hickey is preaching.

Galileo in (Another) Ten Years. Katie is preaching. It’s likely that our ancestors exaggerated the success of their earliest attempts at doing church – the same way are tempted to do, when we look back with nostalgia. (“All church planters lie,” I’ve been heard to say.) But embedded in the exaggeration is a grain of truth. What are the grains of truth they’ll be telling about us in another decade?

Galileo at the End of the World. Rev. Ashley Dargai is preaching.

Galileo 127 Years from Now. Rev. Tyler Araki is preaching. From Tyler: “Nothing lasts forever, not even our beloved church. But what if it’s for the best, happiest reasons? What if we have done Justice, Kindness, Beauty, Real Relationships, and Whatever it Took- as much as possible? It’s so hard to imagine any of that being true, but it’s what we’re working towards, and God willing, someday we will have completely done what we set out to do- building just a bit of the Kingdom of God in our community.”

Galileo in the Vashti Years. Katie is preaching. At some point Queen Vashti said to King What’s- His-Name, “Nope.” She didn’t want to dance for him and his friends anymore, even if it meant exile. She wasn’t afraid, and she wasn’t ingratiated, and she wasn’t waiting for his approval. What if one of the church’s goals is to get everybody into their Vashti years, so that we each and all together are liberated from caring what anybody other than God thinks of us?

Happy birthday to us! Katie is preaching. Remi’s ordination. Co-Conspiracy.

Galileo Next Year. Remi is preaching.
