The Book of Daniel

This Sunday, as we look at Daniel, we'll explore what it means to endure suffering, to hold on to hope, and to pray. We'll also discuss coming to the end of ourselves, Jesus power to save, and the work of the church to stand in solidarity with the suffering.

Together with you in Christ,

Luke 1-2

At the start of Luke, we see God breaking into the ordinary—through the routines, relationships, and responsibilities of people like Zacharias and Elizabeth, Mary and Joseph, and the shepherds. Astonishingly, Jesus, the Son of God, entered the world not with domineering power, but in humility, as a baby, born into a common family for the common good of all.

Do we recognize Christ’s presence in our everyday lives? Do we wrestle with a tension between longing for clear signs of God’s work and the humble, common ways He often reveals Himself? 



Too often, we seek God in mountaintop moments but lose sight of Him in the mundane. Yet, could it be that our everyday faith, offered through the simple routines of life, is precisely where God works to accomplish His kingdom purposes… let's discuss this Sunday!

Have you seen the news lately and wondered, "Where is God?"

💬 Questions for discussion:

In John 6, Jesus performs an incredible miracle, multiplying loaves of bread to feed thousands, enough for everyone to be fully satisfied with leftovers to spare! The crowd was amazed by His ability to provide bread, but Jesus wanted to show them something far greater.

“I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst.” With these words, Jesus reveals the heart of the miracle: He is not just the giver of bread—He is the true Bread. Only He can satisfy the deepest hunger of our souls.

Jesus invites us to partake in a life-changing feast: to delight in His presence, find our fulfillment in Him, and take our place at His table as followers, friends, and family. Are you hungry for something more? 

Martin Luther King said, "We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools". And while we all know that division is painful, and sad, and ought to be prevented, most of us don't know how to spot it before it's begun its path of destruction. And what does the bible say about how to live out the fact that sometimes we just don't agree? Surely Jesus doesn't expect us to just agree about everything! How does disagreement differ from division? And what does the way of unity look like anyway? 

Pastor,

James 1:1-12

On Sunday, let’s come together to look at the book of James and see what it says about trials. God has a purpose for trials. It’s hard to believe that anything good could come from something we instinctively want to avoid. But “we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." I encourage you to join us on Sunday. God’s got you!

Understanding the Way God Matures People Like Us

Have you looked at a picture of yourself as a child lately? Whether that photo is in high definition on a device in your hand or tucked away in a photo album in fading black and white, it's amazing to look at ourselves as we once were.

1 Corinthians 12:12-27

As we continue navigating this season of renovation, it’s important to return to the core of who we are as God’s people. This Sunday, we will explore what it means to live out our identity as the Church in three essential roles: the Body, the Bride, and the Building of Christ. 

Let us seek God’s guidance in becoming the Church He has called us to be, not shying away from change or difficulty but deeply engaging with where He is leading us!

1 Peter 2:4-12

What do you do when life is not going as planned? Peter, in this letter to a suffering church, opens the door to help us understand what it means to find something permanent when life may be falling apart all around you. He points this church to the foundation of Jesus and then to their calling as God’s chosen people. Even in the midst of the hardships, Peter gently encourages them with the purpose of living as witnesses of God’s grace in hard times. Finally, he encourages them to examine their inner life and live an outward life that brings glory to God.

My prayer as we both prepare for this coming Sunday, is for God’s Spirit to guide and lead us through the hard times for His glory and our good.

Reg Toews,

Ephesians 4: 1 - 16

The Church isn't a building, we don't need the walls to be the Church. After all, Jesus did not say to Peter "On this rock I will build my building". A building is just a meeting place for God's "Ekklesia" - gathering, congregation, community, assembly - and that's you and me. 

So WE are the Church. What does that mean? How are we supposed to live? Ephesians 4 has a lot to say about that, read it before you come on Sunday and we'll unpack it together.
