ConnectCalgary

Social media allows us to highlight any aspect of our lives we want: Our sense of humour, our fashion, our politics, our successes (and even our failures). But who do my posts suggest is the hero of my story - Jesus or me?

In today’s message, pastor Dan draws from the life of John the Baptist to explain why Christ deserves the spotlight online and in real life.

We’d all love a little more peace in our lives. Isaiah 9:6-7 explains how Jesus provides a peace (hebrew: “shalom”) that encompasses every aspect of your life!

Criticism is an unfortunate part of life. Even when you are sure you are doing the right thing, others will be happy to tell you that you’re not. The Apostle Paul experienced this firsthand in his ministry, and the wisdom he offers in 1 Corinthians 4 is extremely helpful any time someone says something hurtful.
