  • Who (or WHAT) is discipling YOU?

    Who (or WHAT) is discipling YOU?
    Oct 5 2025
    As we celebrate 40 years as a church, we reflect on the discipleship that has shaped us. But the world is changing rapidly. In a culture dominated by the internet, fake news and gratification, are we equipped to face the next 40 years?

    How can we stay true to our mission of making disciples in an age where information overload threatens authentic connection with God?
    What does it mean to hunger and thirst for Jesus in a world that promises quick fixes and easy answers?

  • Forty to Forever - Part 3: "40 Days of Temptation"

    Forty to Forever - Part 3: "40 Days of Temptation"
    Sep 28 2025
    If you are bringing any goal... big or small... into these 40 days; In fact, if you are trying to become more like Christ in ANY capacity, I can promise you this: You WILL be tempted to abandon your goal...
    To get off course
    To compromise or justify
    To take the easy route
    To SIN
    So, since we KNOW this is coming (and this is likely the time in a 40-day commitment when people start to really backslide) let's get ready for the righteous fight.

    And aren't you glad we have a Saviour who knows a thing or two about successfully pushing back against temptation.

  • Forty to Forever - Part 2: "Bringing God Into Your 40"

    Forty to Forever - Part 2: "Bringing God Into Your 40"
    Sep 21 2025
    Unless you believe you can muster up all your willpower and 'pull up your socks' with your good Protestant work ethic - and determine through grit and gnashed teeth that you can make the kind of transformational changes in your life you desire to make during this season, (or any season for that matter) - you need to know that is a losing strategy. A downright discouraging strategy.

    Aren't you glad you were never meant to make character formation or habit changes alone?

    There is someone not only with the POWER to help you, but who is absolutely your biggest cheerleader in this endeavor.

    Forty to Forever - Part 1: "What's the Deal With Forty?"

    KICK OFF SERIES BEGINS!
    We begin a series in which we celebrate a proud legacy of God at work in our Church and, perhaps more importantly, look forward to the "new thing" God is going to do in our midst.

    And as we come specifically to the number 40, we see it has incredible significance in scripture. In fact, there's something about this number that may even be part of our personal and collective transformation.

    Created For Community
    Sep 7 2025
    Community isn’t an Option. It’s a Necessity. John Mark Comer (Author of "Practicing the Way") expands this truth when he writes, "Community is like the incubator for our spiritual formation." We live life to the fullest when we do it in community.

    The study of Acts 1-28 has finally brought us to "Acts 29"! Now we apply everything that we have learned over the past few months about the mission that Jesus gave us in Acts 1:8. Read the verse again and reflect on how you share our faith in your community, workplace, home and neighbourhood. Are there guidelines to follow? Do you know how to share your story in 2025 in a way that is relevant and helpful to others?

    Come out on Sunday at 10 am with a CURIOUS mind to learn, come out to discover CREATIVE ways to connect with others, and find out how to have COURAGE to be in a community that builds Connections for Transformation. Looking forward to an exciting Sunday morning!

  • How to BE the Church - Part 38: "Without Hinderance"

    How to BE the Church - Part 38: "Without Hinderance"
    Aug 17 2025
    In Acts 28:23-31, Paul had a second meeting with the Jews in Rome. He spent all day expounding and testifying to them about the Kingdom of God and Jesus from the Law and Prophets. There was a mixed response to Paul’s teaching from the audience. Paul then quoted Isaiah 6:9-10 to highlight that salvation had been sent to the Gentiles because they listen. At the end of Acts, Luke tells us that Paul shared the gospel with boldness and without hindrance. What does this have to do with us today? How does it tie to our vision to “Be the Church”?

    This week's sermon is by Irene Wong. Irene has extensive experience studying the Bible and leading small groups. She is married to Anlian, one of our Elders. Irene was born in a secular family. From a young age, God has sent many people into her life to offer guidance, support and encouragement during challenging times. Her spiritual journey isn’t just a story, but a testament to the power of God. Irene believes that a personal connection with Jesus was the key for her while going through grief and transitions in her past. She experienced God’s love and grace and began to see and trust that God always works all things for good.
