Trinity Streetsville

Where is God in hard times? What about when it seems like God is against us? What do we do while we wait for God to redeem all things? How do I deal with all of this pain and struggle? On this week's episode of Trinity Talks we tackle all of these questions and more. Join us for a conversation about judgement, waiting, the problem of evil, theology and how faith can provide a lifeline through some...

This Sunday at Trinity, we’re kicking off our new series, "The Ghosts of Christmas," inspired by Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. Ever feel like a bit of Scrooge sneaks into your life this time of year? Join us as we explore how even the grumpiest of hearts (looking at you, Ebenezer) can be transformed by God’s grace. We'll dive into the great reversal of God’s kingdom, and discover why hope, n...

Habakkuk’s world was filled with injustice, violence, and corruption, and by the book’s end, even economic devastation—a barren land and empty barns. It’s enough to make anyone want to give up. But Habakkuk challenges us to “give up” in a different way: to surrender in faith and trust God even in hardship. Join us as we conclude our study of Habakkuk and explore his surprising response to struggle...

Life doesn't always go according to the plan, and in those moments of disappointment, fear and devastation, we don't always know where to turn. This week Kylah sits down with two members of Trinity to talk more about how their faith has helped them get through some really difficult moments including the death of a child and moments of intense fear and anxiety. #TheStruggleIsReal #Podcast #Greif #D...

This Sunday, we’re excited to welcome guest speaker Justin Stratis as he continues our series, The Struggle is Real. He’ll take us through Habakkuk 2:6-20, where God pronounces a series of “woes” against the injustices of the nations—confronting their greed, oppression, and idolatry. While it’s a tough message, it’s also one filled with hope: God’s judgment isn’t just about punishment; it’s about...

When life is hard where do you turn? Who are the people that you can be honest with even when you don't know exactly what to say? Join us for a conversation about living authentically and sharing honestly with one another and with God in the midst of the dark days of our lives. Timestamps: 0:00 Introduction 1:13 What is Lament? 4:55 What Does Lament Look Like in Our Lives? 7:46 You're Allowed to b...

Tom Petty was right: 'The waiting IS the hardest part.' No one likes being put on hold or left in silence, especially when we’re longing to hear from God. So, how do we respond when God seems quiet? One of the essential skills we need to develop is what the Bible calls 'waiting on the Lord.' Though it may sound like a cliché, waiting on God is one of the most profound ways we learn to navigate lif...

Disappointment, heartbreak and illness are part of life and when we are walking through those things it can be so easy to feel like we're all alone. In this episode of Trinity Talks Kylah sits down with some of those who are called to walk alongside people in the darkest parts of life. At Trinity, these people are known as "Stephen Ministers". Listen in as we talk about what a Stephen Minister is,...

Good times are wonderful, but they never last. Dark days will come - both in the wider society and in our personal lives. Knowing this, how can we be prepared to handle them?

This week we conclude our 8-week series by discovering how sharing hospitality brings us face to face with Jesus in unexpected ways. We also launch our Gather and Grow Initiative!

Is hospitality a priority for churches today? Why have an open communion table? Are there ever times when we shouldn't offer hospitality? Join Kylah, Rob and Jordana as they respond to these questions and more. #Podcast #Hositality #Inclusion #Communion #EatTogether #AskThePastor

Know that feeling when you walk into a place where you don't know anyone? The anxiety, the excitement, the nervousness, the dread. Join us to chat about what it's like to be new to a church and how sharing meals together can help overcome some of those initial emotions as we move from strangers to family. #EatTogether #ChurchPodcast #Hospitality

Like the iconic movie The Breakfast Club, Jesus shared a meal with a group of people from different walks of life—each with their own stories and failures. Yet, despite their differences, Jesus welcomed them into fellowship, offering reconciliation with each other and with God.

Join us for a Thanksgiving episode of Trinity Talks where we discuss the history of Thanksgiving, some of our favourite fall memories, and how newcomers to Canada have learned to celebrate the holiday.

Whether your Thanksgiving feast is overflowing or simple, God's love is greater still. Its width, length, depth, and height surround us all, offering more than we could ever imagine.

What happens when you cook dinner and invite everyone in? Join us as we talk about the community meals program at Trinity to find out. #EatTogether #CommunityMeals #Podcast #TrinityChurch

Wine connoisseurs often claim they can detect subtle hints and undertones by carefully sniffing and sipping a glass of wine. Similarly, a thoughtful reading of Jesus' miracle in John 2 reveals layers of meaning that teach us much about who Jesus is and why He came.

Wondering what the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is? Why is it important? Why does it matter for churches and followers of Christ? Join us for a conversation to explore these questions and more. Kylah and Rochelle mention a number of resources to continue your learning: Anglican Church of Canada’s Apology for Residential Schools: https://www.anglican.ca/tr/apology/ Orange Shirt Day: ww...

A meal has the power to include or exclude. Deep down, we all long to feel included, to know we matter. But too often, we chase significance through beauty, wealth, or success—only to be disappointed. Zacchaeus was one of those people, seeking worth in wealth but finding himself excluded from society. That changed when he met Jesus.

On this week's episode of Trinity Talks Kylah sits down with members of online LIFE groups to hear about their experiences and how meeting online provides both flexibility and potential for deeper friendship and faith.

Ever felt snubbed or overlooked, like being stuck at the back of the room while others bask in the spotlight? Jesus flipped social norms by inviting everyone—especially the outcasts—to His table. In Luke 14 Jesus is at a dinner party and flips the script once again with an important word for hosts, for guests and for all of us. Listen in as Rob takes us through these important words from Jesus. #A...

How do you turn a little into a lot? In life, we often find ourselves needing God to transform small opportunities into great ones, limited abilities into remarkable skills, or low energy into abundant strength. When Jesus fed 5,000 people with just a few loaves and fish, He revealed a powerful truth: when we offer God what little we have, He can multiply it!

How can we heal the division and detachment in our world today? Sometimes, the most complicated problems have the simplest solutions. Biblical hospitality is one of the most powerful ways to break down barriers and extend God’s love to others. Since many feel more at ease in a living room than in a church, our homes can become outposts of the Kingdom of God—places where grace, connection, and love...

Join us this Sunday for our 9:15am or 11:15am service as Rob speaks on the topic of brewing up wisdom!

On this episode of Trinity Talks, Elizabeth speaks with Kylah as she passes on the role of Online Engagement Director.
