Memory and nostalgia play a heightened role in our lives at Christmas time. In this second episode of our Advent series, we consider Scrooge’s visit from the Ghost of Christmas Past, as we look for signs of hope in what can be a difficult season.

In a series based on Matt Rawle’s book, The Redemption of Scrooge, we journey to Christmas with Ebenezer, Bob Cratchit and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future. Along the way, we will rediscover for ourselves the meaning of Christ’s birth.

Should there always be winners and losers? Do some people just deserve more than others? In the third and final episode in this series, we explore God’s idea of fairness as it relates to equal pay for unequal work.

Part 2 in our No Fair! Sermon Series explores the challenge and grace of unlimited forgiveness.

Discover how God’s idea of forgiveness is fortunately very different from ours as we explore three passages from the Gospel of Matthew. This episode focuses in on conflict resolution in the church and the theme of Remembrance Day.

Fish and bread for a crowd. Fish fry on the beach. Fish and fishermen feature prominently in a number of stories about Jesus. We explore these stories and how they inspire our response to food insecurity in this message preached on World Food Sunday.
