The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms lays out the rights and freedoms that we believe are essential for a free and democratic society, things like: life, liberty, and personal security, freedom of religion, expression, and peaceful assembly.

If someone threatened those rights, how would you feel? If someone tried to limit those freedoms, what would you do?

The Apostle Paul advises the absurd: we put up with anything rather than hinder the gospel of Christ.

There is a world - far more commonplace than you may think (or hope) - in which it is better for a Christian to give up his rights in service to the Gospel and to other people.

Listen to this week's sermon to find out when you should consider doing the same.
