  • Colossians Series, The Christ Hymn

    Why has the world not destroyed itself over and over again? Why are we not driven to despair by the ideology and identity divisions we are taught to cling to? What keeps this show moving forward even with glimmers of hope? The Creator of it all is not done with us. This Sunday, we explore an ancient poem/song that pulls back the curtain.

    It's not over, it's moving onward!

  • Colossians Series, Power Prayers

    People yearn for liberty and look for it in many places. We seek goodness and long to be people of kindness, but where does that power come from when our world is driven by greed and every imaginable division? Is there any way out or up? When does knowledge become wisdom? This Sunday, we look at an ancient prayer and a way of looking at the world that makes the pieces fit.

  • Colossians, The King and The Collective: Christ, Creation, Cosmos

    Are you feeling trapped in your house, your mind, and your body? Paul, in his letter to the Colossians, shares with us from prison how based on reunion with the Creator and Creation, we can unlock the door and explore the contours of being an alternative community. Can you see yourself as part of a community where God is king instead of our various ideologies?

  • Special Guest, Pastor David Chow

    Hear from our special guest, Pastor David Chow. In light of our engagement with the newly forming Jesus Collective (jesuscollective.com) we've invited a local Anabaptist leader to share his insights and wisdom on this Jesus-centred way of living our faith.


    David Chow is passionate about the intercultural congregation and community that he calls home. A fourth-generation Westerner, David was previously trained as a secondary French teacher. He worked with MB Mission in Japan with his spouse, Charlene for two years, and loves crossing cultures! A consummate reader, David also loves following his wife on crazy adventures, playing in the outdoors with his four amazing children, and listening to music of all flavours.

    David has worked at Killarney Park MB since 2002, previously as an associate pastor of youth, and associate pastor of community development. He is loving ministry serving as lead pastor.

  • Palm Sunday, Provoking the Powers

    Worship is a political, Provoking the Powers act (inside yourself and beyond). This Palm Sunday we are in a whole new world. The politicians are helping, AND helping themselves, to powers they cannot possibly predict the future impact of. We are worshippers; we will worship Jesus or we will worship other things like our false sense of security and peace promised to us by powers to secure their own place in our minds and hearts. Worship of Jesus can break the spell and reveal the real war on the earth today.

  • Lent 5, Pandemic and the Pantokrator, Not A Building, A Body, The Church

    The virus has forced us into a greater awareness of the body. We are material beings very susceptible to brokenness and evil in creation, but what does this mean for "the body of Christ," the local church? The Pandemic reminds us we are matter and more than matter. Jesus reveals to us there are parts of us the plague cannot extinguish. 1 Corinthians 12:27, Romans 8:1-12

  • LENT 4, Pandemic and The Pantokrator, Natural Evil?

    Is this God's will? It's common for people to blur the line between the possible good that can come out of evil, to calling evil itself a "good thing". With sickness, this gets really messy, but if we think about other evils, we can get our blurry lines snapped back into shape pretty fast. Jesus gives us direction to not confuse the good that can come from evil, while still naming some things as evil, bad, and broken.
