What I love about St. Barnabas!
I love the sense of peace and homecoming that I always find at St. Barnabas - a feeling of true sanctuary. But even more important is the way our community embodies family and belonging. What I love best is our mutual determination to be our best for one another.
- Sarah Bleasdale
When we moved here a year and half ago, we knew we wanted to find an Episcopal church and we tried several in the area and we kept coming back to St. Barnabas because it is just so full of spirit and the worship is fantastic. There's a great rector and a lot of activity going on. So, we're hooked!
- Cleve Callison
When I was asked what I loved about Saint Barnabas, I thought, “Well that’s easy.” The music, the people, the liturgy, the music, the sermons, the pastoral leadership, the feeling of family, the music, and the list goes on!
- Pam Bye
We love the community of St. Barnabas. We have made new friends and deepened existing friendships. Justin's weekly sermons center and uplift us. And we leave each Sunday feeling hopeful. We feel so blessed to be part of such a wonderful and welcoming place.
- Sally and Kirk Bedell
We love coming to St. Barnabas because the people in the church make us feel welcome and included as a part of the community. The music is beautiful, and the sermons are engaging, relevant, and full of encouragement.
- Brett and Elizabeth Wheeler
I’ve been a part of the weekly service at St. Barnabas for 30 years. My granddaughter Skylar has joined me every week the last 4 years. Sunday mornings rejuvenates my faith in God. The kindness throughout the congregation and staff is a gift from God. All this adds to the ease of living in Peace by the grace of God!
The beauty and tranquillity at St. Barnabas we really enjoy!

LATEST SERMON
From Law to Grace
Rev. Phoebe
This sermon explores the stark contrast between two Gospel encounters: the Samaritan woman at the well whose testimony brought many to belief, and the man born blind whose miraculous healing was met with stubborn rejection. We're confronted with an uncomfortable truth about human nature—sometimes we become so attached to our rules and traditions that we become blind to divine truth unfolding right before us. The people in the blind man's community couldn't accept that the Messiah would heal on the Sabbath or show mercy to someone they considered a sinner. Their allegiance to religious law blinded them to grace itself. Rev. Phoebe challenges us to examine our own lives: What rules or traditions might be keeping us from seeing God's work clearly? Are we willing to embrace the discomfort of change when new revelations challenge our worldview? The journey from law to grace is ongoing, and God invites us to stay alert to Christ's transforming presence, even when it disrupts our comfortable certainties. As we reflect this Lent, we're reminded that progress in faith requires courage to say, 'I once was blind, but now I see.'
FOR BETTER, FOR VERSE PODCAST
Moses, We Have a Problem
Fr. J & Dr. J
In this episode, Justin Crisp and Jewelle Bickel explore the rich narratives and theological themes of the Book of Numbers, including its realistic account of human nature, the contradiction between God's love and God's justice, the nature of God, and the surprising ways God reveals Himself beyond the people and practices of His covenant with Israel. Discover insights into biblical leadership, human doubt, and God's providence in unexpected places and people.
