What is the meaning of life? Is there really a God? What does Jesus have to say for the 21st century? Why is there so much suffering in the world? There are a lot of voices telling us what we should believe. Where can I find one that will truly satisfy the restlessness within me and lead me on a good path?
If you have arrived at TCC.org with some of these questions within you, then welcome! We like to think that our church is a place where we can bring our deep questions about life and our yearning for something more. We don't pretend to have all the answers, but we do see ourselves as a pilgrim people, always on the way to the fullness of life Jesus Christ invites us to and always welcoming those who wish to travel with us.
If you have questions, feel free to fill out the form below. Your question will be forwarded to the pastor.
We offer this prayer for those of you who are trying to figure out where God is leading you.
A prayer. . .
I am here because I am searching for answers,
hoping that I am not all alone in this vast universe,
and wanting to find the faith, hope and love
that I sometimes see in others,
and long to find in myself.
I don't want to sign up for anything yet,
or commit to something I'm not sure of,
but I'm here because my experience of life
tells me that there has to be "something more,"
something that will make sense of how I'm feeling.
God, hear my prayer. Look into my heart
and see the longing that is in there;
look into my mind and see the questions,
row upon row, waiting for answers,
look into my eyes and tell me who I am.
I'm dipping my toe into the water here
and it feels pretty risky!
But if what they say about Jesus is true,
then coming to you just as I am
is the best way to come.
So hear my prayer, Holy One.
Hear my heartfelt longing for a response
that will tell me that I am loved;
hear my fervent plea for acceptance
of my questions and my struggles.
