Message: “Deeds, Not Creeds” from Chelsea Alexander

In this People's Sunday sermon, Hillside member Chelsea Alexander takes up the passage from James that asks a deceptively simple question: if faith doesn't show up in how you treat people, what exactly is it? Drawing on Martin Luther King Jr.'s writing about the gap between what we profess and what we practice, Chelsea argues that love isn't primarily a feeling or a belief — it's what you do when someone drops something, needs a seat on the T, or is standing outside in the cold. This is a sermon about the small, unglamorous actions that constitute a living faith, and why, especially right now, they matter more than we think.

Scripture References: James 2:14-26
