Today we will have the opportunity to briefly explore four pathways that Jesus invites people to follow him as they embrace the Good News He offers.

As a church, we are exploring what it means to walk "with" God. The kind of relationship envisioned by this moves beyond ritual to an experience of prayer that touches on the very real and practical areas of our lives. Truly, walking with God involves talking with God.

Pastor Lyle Buyer

As we continue our focus on what it means to live in relationship "with" God, today we begin a series of sermons exploring this theme through the lens of the life of Jesus. Our first stop opens on a simple scene where we see parents bring their little children to Jesus that He might bless them. When HIs disciple confront the crowd for "wasting" Jesus' time this way. He counters by pointing to the little children as a "living parable" demonstrating the kind of qualities necessary for a growing experience of life with God.

Today Pastor Mike will look at the conclusion of Colossians. In these final greetings we meet some of the companions that Paul has in his walk, and we are introduced to what they bring along to support the journey.

Today we will look at how Paul's words in Colossians 4:2-6 give guidance to the practical outworking of our relationship with our "neighbours", those people in our communities and our world who live outside of a restored relationship with God.

Welcome to MCkernan Baptist Church! WE are glad you hAve joined us. AS we continue our focus on what it means to walk WITH God, we are currently exploring how we might be more intention in developing our relationships with God.

Today we will look at some direction Paul gives in Colossians 3:15-16 that guide the practical outworking of our relationship with God.

Since our ministry year began last September, we have been talking about what it means to walk with God. While Paul is clear that this walk is not about external rules and rituals, he also is clear that it is more than mindless wandering.

In Colossians 3:17, Paul provides a concise summary regarding our walk with God.

Since the beginning of our ministry year last September, we have focused a them summarized simply by the word. "WITH". What does it mean to walk WITH God? We continue this theme into this new year as Tim Pippus brings a message today that well take us back two thousand years to a time when Jesus took Peter, James and John out for what they thought would be an ordinary hike. We will see how the extraordinary events they experienced that day can strengthen and guide us as we seek to walk with God in the midst of our ordinary lives in 2018.
