It’s hard to live life well without making plans: what career path to take, who to marry, where to live. People make plans all the time; but what does God have to say about that? Our text speaks specifically to this part of our lives.
James 4:13-17
We believe that God calls His people to a higher standard. But what does this mean to us today? How does the Bible teach us about our conduct and how it affects our living? Today, we’ll be learning about what it means to be God’s people and how He desires us to be His witnesses of the gospel in our world.
1 Peter 1:13-25
Words are powerful. What we say matters. In today's sermon, we are going to unpack the great potential and dangerous power of words. We will learn why God cares about what people say, and how Christians can use our words to maximize God's glory and bless our world.
James 3:1-12
As Paul introduces himself at the beginning of his letter to Rome, we get to see what he believes defines his life, which draws us to ask the question: What defines your life? What is your mission statement?
Romans 1:1-7
What is God’s blueprint for passing faith to successive generations? Why is family faith formation important? Who is responsible? And how do we do it?
Deuteronomy 6:1-9
Jesus is amazing, but embracing the wrong understanding of Jesus can lead to having a devastating source of false hope and comfort. In this sermon, we will discover who Jesus truly is, and why faith in Him can allow us to survive, thrive, and find peace in this crazy world.
Hebrews 1:5-14
Whatever shapes your thinking shapes your life, so make God’s Word your primary shaping influence by meditating on it. This message will look at how to curate your inputs and prioritize what matters most.
Psalm 1
God saves us, equips us, and sends us. Are we ready to answer the call? The Hebrew Scriptures are full of God’s promises to send us the Messiah. Today, as we look at the feasts of the Lord in Leviticus 23, could they help us see a foreshadow of the great commission? Could they help us see we are saved for a purpose?
God has made us partners of the gospel, and He uses mutual relationships in order to reach His goal to make us like Christ, and build His church. As we look at Philippians 1, we’ll see how God uses other people in our lives to help us grow and bring joy and thankfulness.
People around the world have found inspiration in Jesus’ Great Commission since He gave to the first disciples 2,000 years ago. Nick Helliwell shares insights he has gained from it as a missionary to Indigenous Peoples.
Do you know God as He has revealed himself in His Word? We can only do what God requires if we understand who He is. The message on Micah is one of judgment but also of hope for those who put their trust in the God of the biblical revelation who is like no other.
Many people believe that they are the creators of their own destinies and the masters of their own fate, and they live their lives accordingly. In Col 1:15-20, however, Paul thinks very differently. This text loudly proclaims that we all have the same Creator and Master: Jesus; and he explains why.
Jesus chose to humble Himself, eschew His own divine power, submit to the leading of the Holy Spirit, and rely upon His empowerment to live a holy life, in total obedience to His Father. This message will look at how to be filled with the Spirit, how to welcome the Spirit into our lives, and why the Holy Spirit chooses to come.

In today’s message, we’ll look at a conversation Jesus had with one of his disciples just prior to leaving this earth. Jesus was trying to give him (and all of us) critical truths to be able to spiritually flourish this side of heaven – so that we might make a difference for Him.
Relationships are a foundational part of life. Whether it is our spouse, parents, siblings, friends, or co-workers, we all depend on relationships. Sadly, despite their importance, relationships can be so hard to forge, develop, and maintain. In this sermon, we move past the world’s advice, dig into Scripture, and learn what God says about how we should approach our various relationships.
Sometimes, especially recently, we all feel like we are in a dark tunnel, just waiting for the light to come at the end. In Psalm 57 we find David literally stuck in a cave and afraid for his life, but still praising God. This message looks at the prayer that God gives him, and how we too can find our refuge in God and realize that He is our light, even while still in the dark times.
Stress, isolation and uncertainty have led many Christians to pull back from Christian fellowship during the pandemic. In the first century, Jewish Christians faced the temptation because of persecution. This message looks at the reasons they were given to persevere and how they can help us finish the race in our day.
With so much uncertainty in our lives, we long for rest from our cares and anxieties. This message looks at some of the things we worry about too much, some we worry about too little and the Saviour who promises us peace.
