Due to bad weather causing a service cancellation last Sunday, we've rescheduled the next sermon in our winter series, Feast, for this coming Sunday. This Sunday, we’ll explore one of Jesus’ most well-known and lasting parables, the Prodigal Son, with a special focus on the older brother. We’ll explore how, in the Kingdom of God, refusing to offer hospitality to those we consider unworthy is, in essence, rejecting God Himself.…

This Sunday, we continue our winter series, 'Feast', as we explore the theme of hospitality in the Gospel of Luke. This week, we’ll focus on how tables - meant to welcome outsiders into God’s grace - had instead become barriers, keeping people from experiencing his love and inclusion. We’ll reflect on how Hospitality in the Kingdom of God is hindered when religious priority excludes the very people God has created a space for…

Specifically where Jesus deals with the disciples’ dispute on who the greatest of them is. And we’ll learn that the path to true greatness involves humble service, and follows in the footsteps of Jesus.…

This coming Sunday, as part of our winter series Feast, we continue exploring the theme of hospitality in the Gospel of Luke, focusing on how Jesus uses acts of hospitality to reveal the heart of the Kingdom of God. This week we will consider Jesus attending a Sabbath dinner hosted by a prominent Pharisee. During this event, Jesus addresses poor behaviour, teaching that in the Kingdom of God, true greatness is defined by compassion, humility, and generosity, rather than social status or privilege. Through His actions and words, Jesus emphasizes the importance of embodying these virtues in our relationships with others.…

As we come together on this fourth Sunday of Advent, we continue our Advent sermon series, “The Weary World Rejoices.” This week, we focus on the theme of love. Our scripture highlights the specific gifts the Magi presented to Jesus - gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Yet, the greatest gift in this story is the gift of God’s love, offered to an unexpected group who, by society's standards, would have been considered unworthy of such divine grace. We will be reminded that God's love and grace are so all-encompassing that even those considered unworthy are welcomed and invited to be a part of his story…

As we come together on this second Sunday of Advent, we continue our Advent sermon series, “The Weary World Rejoices.” This week, we focus on the theme of peace. We reflect on the angel's visit to Joseph in a dream when he learned of Mary's unexpected pregnancy. Just as Joseph found peace by trusting God's guidance, we are reminded that, even in our moments of deepest disappointment and despair, true peace is found when we remember that God is always in control.…

There are a lot of realities in our world right now that cause us to worry. The choice before us is a life rooted in Kingdom priorities, where trust in God is our hope, or a life that is rooted in earthly priorities, where worry robs our joy. This Sunday we will be reminded that living a Jesus centered life means that even when life is hard, God’s care and provision are assured.…
