Today we will hear a message based on our theme for the next two months, “A Different Kind of King”. Krista dela Rosa will help us explore some of the history of the kings of Israel and how that might have impacted what folks expected of who Jesus ought to have been.

Today, as part of our series on the theme "A Different Kind of King", Jan Van Aertselaer will explore with us the story of the baptism of Jesus in Jordan River by his cousin, who became known as John the Baptist. This story marks the beginning of Jesus' public ministry, but not before he spends forty days in the wilderness following his baptism. Communion will be served during this service.

This morning Genesis will be sharing 4 different prayers related to the 4 days of Advent. Love, Hope, Peace and Joy. And then Cynthia will do a short study on the gifts of the wise men and what impact they have on us today. (First 4 minutes are missing due to mic issues)

"The gift of Christmas is the Messiah born to a weary world. This morning Leshia Verkerk will lead us in looking at Luke 1:39-55 to see that God Himself is our greatest gift this Christmas season. He is the one who brings light and life to all of us."

Our stories help us know who we are, where we come from and where we are going, so it only makes sense to want to tell good stories. Join Storyteller Brad Woods this Sunday to hear about how to find your story, how it connects with the advent story and how it fits into God's master story.

KidVenture will lead our service. It's going to be fun! We begin our theme for December: Advent: The Gift.

This morning we continue with our theme: Dwelling In The Temple, Stewardship. Our World Belongs to God. Ray Van der Zaag will speak about this topic as we further consider how we live in, and care for, this world that God has created and commissioned us to care for.

Psalm 119 is not just an anthem declaring the glory of God's word. It is the heart cry of a man who is in the midst of a severe trial, a crucible. Through his words we can glimpse his heart and glean some wisdom for the roads of suffering that we must also take. This morning Mike McInnes will share his teaching on this topic with us.

we continue with Part 2 of the talk by Karen Wilk, Go Local Team Leader.

Last week we asked the text many questions and pondered what the Spirit might be saying to us as we seek to discover and join God on His mission in our neighbourhoods. This morning we continue that practice! In preparation, how about asking one another, how have you seen God at work in your life or neighbourhood this week? And if you have an opportunity to dwell in the text, try jotting down as many questions as you can think of as a way to ponder what God might be saying to you and your community.
