In Psalm 40, David writes "The Lord has given me a new song to sing, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see what he has done and be amazed. They will put their trust in the Lord." These words were a source of strength and hope for our youth team that traveled to Mexico over spring break and they also have the power to transform the way that we think about being a part of God's mission here in Winkler. Join us on Sunday as we hear stories from our students about serving in Mexico and consider how God is inviting each of us to respond to his goodness by pouring out our love on others.

“What if the next generation isn't just the church of tomorrow, but they're the bold missionaries God is raising up today? In a world that’s quick to say "get a real job," "you're not qualified," or "you're too young," we've watched shy teenagers become fearless leaders, campers who have never heard of Jesus become passionate followers of him, and ordinary young people point hundreds of kids to Christ. God delights in using real teens for real impact”

Join us this Sunday as Darrell Janzen, director of Simonhouse Bible Camp shares incredible stories from our MB mission to the North!

Do we consider Peter a villain in the Easter Story? Are you a villain in the Easter Story? This Sunday we reflect on three scenes from the life of Peter - even the greatest of saints has the potential to fall at any moment, and even greater, we’ll see the amazing love, care, and tenderness that Jesus offers to each one of us who returns to him. Who do you say I am?

What kind of vision do you have? Are you near-sighted, far-sighted? Do you have cataracts? Or, are you one of those people with perfect vision? On Good Friday, we look at the story of a man convinced he can see, but cannot see Jesus, or himself.

Have you ever tried to bargain with God? Use God as a means to your own ends? I think if we’re honest with ourselves, we’ve all tried to God to do what we want. This Sunday we explore the life of Judas, whose motives and betrayal set into motion the events that led to Jesus’ crucifixion and resurrection. There’s a little Judas in all of us. 

We've spent most of this year listening to Jesus describe His Kingdom and how we can live with Him as our King. But what if we refuse? This Easter, we'll look at four people in the Easter story who refuse to loosen their grip on their own goals, their own purposes, their own kingdoms. Hopefully, we'll learn from their mistakes. This week, we look at Caiaphas, the high priest.

What do eyes and lamps have to do with money? What in the world is “mammon?” This week, we unpack some of Jesus most difficult to understand teachings on wealth. I’m not going to sugarcoat it; these will be hard for us to accept.

 “It is arguable that materialism is the single biggest competitor with authentic Christianity for the hearts and souls of millions in our world today” (Craig Blomberg). Jesus not only says that our heart will direct our actions, but also the reverse: our habits will shape our hearts. Where we direct our attention will, over time, shape who we become. It is perhaps for this reason, Jesus taught more about wealth than about any other social issue – more than marriage, politics, work, power. There are few topics that demand more commitment as Christ-followers to live counter-culturally than our relationship with money and the attention our western society has given to materialism. 

As Dallas Willard once said, “The gospel is less about how to get into the kingdom of heaven after you die, and more about how to live in the kingdom of heaven before you die.” In a world that feels increasingly tense, divided and overwhelming, what does it look like to be People of the Kingdom, Krista Heide will be joining us to explore the theme of evangelism in both theological and practical ways.

The life of Jesus, the writings of Scripture, the voice of the global church, and the teaching of the saints down through church history, all say in unison: fasting is essential and powerful. At the same time, fasting could be seen as the single most neglected spiritual practice in the modern, Western church. Let’s talk about it; see ya Sunday!
