"What if we really KNEW – and lived like we knew – that we carry the power of God in us? Jesus told his disciples: “Whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these”. What if we could live with that consciousness all the time? (K.B).
​
Kim is a lifelong spiritual seeker, and a grateful member of ASBC for 20+ years. Although her official profession is as a health care provider, her real passion is to help people heal themselves by sharing information, resources and encouragement. Over the past several years she has become increasingly committed to anti-racist, anti-oppression work, and endeavors to collaborate with others in that work in various ways.

is more singing.” (Ella Fitzgerald)
And we love to sing! We enrich worship through musical diversity from traditional hymns and spirituals to blues, jazz, gospel, classical and contemporary music led by our own artists and professional guests.
