Have you ever experienced a situation where your plans were derailed? How did you respond? In Luke 8:40-56, we see how different people reacted when their plans were derailed, and yet Jesus invites us to keep engaging with him and hold on to expectant hope.

Contentment can seem like an elusive goal in a world constantly telling us that we need more to be happy. But the Apostle Paul, in his letter to the Philippians, reveals the secret to true contentment. Join us this weekend at Cobourg Alliance Church as we explore Philippians 4:10-13 to learn the secret and unlock a superpower for an abundant life in any circumstance.

Maybe you’ve been there: vacation’s right around the corner, a million things to finish before you leave, and the only thing motivating you to hustle is the serenity you’ll find waiting for you after finally sitting comfortably by that crystal clear lake that offers the best picture of peace you could imagine.

Speaker: Pastor Darryl Buckle

Did you know that the Greeks had an interesting way of measuring time? The Olympiad, a period of four years, was a way for them to keep track of time. However, in modern times, we measure time differently — some may even measure time by the start of Monday Night Football! This week at Cobourg Alliance, we're exploring a different way of thinking about time. In our message on the book of Philippians, we'll look at how the Apostle Paul uses a sports metaphor to help us grow past our failures and fumbles.

Speaker: Pastor Darryl Buckle

Have you ever felt absolutely overwhelmed by the pressure to live up to a certain standard or image, whether it's self-imposed or not? Are you tired of falling short and tempted to give up trying? What if God's plan wasn't to measure your strengths or weaknesses, assets and liabilities to see if you make the grade?

Speaker: Pastor Darryl Buckle

Ever wonder what happens after you find faith?

Are you tired of superficial, shallow relationships that leave you feeling unknown and unheard? Are you looking for a community where you can build solid and lasting relationships that empower you to make a difference? In Philippians 2, Paul shares the secret to finding your tribe and building a community that can change the world — and it all starts with you as you practice the imitation of Christ.

Speaker: Pastor Tyler Tavares

Have you ever met someone who seems ready for the hard stuff in life, who holds fast to a sense of purpose in the midst of all that difficulty? Someone who can see beyond their own situation to the value their circumstance can hold for others? They seem energized and empowered by something more. The Apostle Paul lived that kind of life. He had the kind of attitude that moved him beyond himself to something deeper. If you want that kind of life, join us as we explore week two in our eight-week series on Philippians.

Speaker: Pastor Darryl Buckle

Ever felt in over your head? Like you're facing some giant, but you're all alone. It's just you and him.

Have you ever forgotten to take out the trash, call your Mom on her birthday or let your phone distract you from what's cooking?
