The Book of Proverbs – Wisdom for Daily Life

We make decisions every day.  Some are big, some not so big.  Some have long-term implications, some are confined to a moment in time.  Some are easy to make, while others seem nearly impossible.  Plan to join us in this brand-new series, as Pastor Brent leads us into an ancient book of wisdom called the Book of Proverbs, in search of timeless truth for decision-making in daily life today.
 

Those crazy widows

Devalued.  Overlooked.  Underestimated.  Sometimes God’s most faithful followers are the ones the world is least likely to see.  Join us in our latest message series, as we explore the lives of seven women in the Bible who demonstrate what faith can look like regardless of our personal circumstances.

Right with God

Armour of God

Living for God is hard.  So many distractions.  So many temptations.  The good news? Everything you need to know about how to guard your life to follow Jesus can be found in a few short paragraphs at the end of one of the Apostle Paul’s letters in the Bible.

Messiah

We’ve all seen the pictures of the tiny baby in the manger of Bethlehem: wholesome, unassuming, and seemingly innocent. But of course, no other baby has ever impacted the world nearly so much. What is it about Jesus that draws people to Him? What is it that has caused people in every generation to completely reorient their lives around Him? What is it that had people anticipating his birth hundreds of years in advance? In this seasonal series of messages by Pastor Brent called “MESSIAH: Four Things You Can Expect From the Saviour of the World”, we trust some of these questions might begin to find answers, as we explore four things you can expect from the Saviour of the world.
 

The Five Love Languages

Over the course of more than 20 years, Dr. Gary Chapman’s ground-breaking book, The Five Love Languages, has connected with over 15 million people worldwide, and has been making a positive impact on human relationships.  Join us this winter, as Pastor Brent leads us through a Bible-based study of these different love languages, believing that the ability to love one another well (in all types of relationships) is something that God wants for each of us.

 Generous

What if we’ve got it all wrong?  In a world where the unspoken maxim for life is to do what’s best for ourselves, is it possible that there’s actually a better way?  Join Pastor Brent during this four-part message series, as we examine together what the Bible means by, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”

 Church on Purpose

On any given Sunday morning, churches all over the countryside are quietly filled with people worshiping God together.  But what is the purpose of the local church?  Why does it exist?  Can the church really make a difference?  In this 4-part Church On Purpose series, Pastor Brent uses the church’s purpose statement to revisit and discover anew why we’re here.

The Fruit of the Spirit

You can’t produce it on your own. It can’t be synthesized, manufactured, or manipulated into being.  But as we commit ourselves daily to following Jesus, there is a whole garden of positive personal qualities that God begins to produce in us.  In this series of messages on the Fruit of the Spirit, we explore the nine biblical virtues that ought to characterize everyone who calls themselves a follower of Jesus.
