Canopy Church Podcast

This week, in our Third Space episode, Michelle leads a reflection on what it means to renew our minds. She shares personally about how the Lord has slowly transformed her thought patterns of fear and anxiety and then leads us in a breath prayer to ground us in the reality of who God is. To pick up at the breath prayer you can start at 

Romans 12:1-2 with Bryan Rouanzoin  Transformation into a person of love does not happen on our own or by our own effort - but it does require our involvement. Paul teaches us that a major inroad into partnering with God in our transformation is through renewing our minds. Bryan gently reminds us that our wills can't choose what our minds cannot yet  imagine. 

This week, we reflect on the ways discipleships in our ordinary lives can often come through consent and constraint.

1 John 4:7-21 with Bryan Rouanzoin

This week Canopy Staff - Bryan, Shayla, and Michelle-- sit down to have a conversation on Bills teaching on Shame, Hiding and the False Self. They reflect on what it means to name emotions, embrace vulnerability, and return to remembering what God has done.

Luke 15:11-31 with Bryan Rouanzoin As he teaches through the foundational parable of the Lost Sons, Pastor Bryan reminds us how important the picture of God we have is. 

Pastor Bryan goes deeper in The Apprentice Loop, a practical pattern to invite discipleship to Jesus in our ordinary life -- our frustrations, reactions, numbness, etc.  The Apprentice Loop Notice. Name. Consent. Align. Abide.

Matthew 11:25–30 with Bryan Rouanzoin Spiritual formation begins when we step into Jesus’ yoke and learn to obey him not as rule-keeping but as relational trust. Over time, that embodied obedience reshapes our souls from the inside out, forming new reflexes, desires, and loves. As we live beside him, we discover the Father’s true character, gentle and humble, and slowly become like Jesus ourselves...

Romans 5-7 and Mark 12: 29-31 with Bryan Rouanzoin As Paul describes, we are whole beings made up of parts - with a heart, mind, soul, and body. Pastor Bryan unpacks these parts and how we often end up drifting from the very way of life in Jesus that we are longing for. It is God who can draw these parts together into wholeness. 

Mark 1: 14-20 and 2 Peter 1: 1-11 with Bill Dogterom Jesus invites his disciples to follow him, and to over time become like Him. He believed that abundance was truly available to us. Pastor Bill emphasizes that it doesn't matter what Jesus believes about us, if we don't believe it ourselves. This teaching invites us to lean in to the invitation of Jesus, to daily add to our faith throug...

Holy and Whole invites us into the present reality of the Kingdom of God—not as a distant ideal, but as a transforming life available here and now. This series asks a simple, searching question: Did Jesus mean what he said? And did he expect us to live this way? Rather than a faith reduced to beliefs or forgiveness alone, Holy and Whole offers a deeper hope—that the life Jesus describes is not onl...

This week, Bryan reflects on a line from Bill's Teaching, "God is looking for men and women he can trust with the dreams of their heart." He walks through each of the three commitments that we believe shapes our Formation.  A people of a biding in a culture of restlessness Where has restlessness quietly become normal? A people of transformation in a culture of superficiality What is...

This week we enter into a reflection on Presence through the Holy Spirit. We pray you may slow your mind to be attentive to God's very presence as He longs to be with you. 

For this week's podcast, we sat down with two of our Table leaders and had a conversation about community. We share stories and insights about creating a culture of vulnerability and deep care. We hope you enjoy!

Welcome to our series on Canopy Church convictions. Our four anchoring convictions - Community, Presence, Formation, and Mission - are what guides our discipleship to Jesus as a church. What does it mean to be people of Community? A people of hospitality in a culture of polarization — creating spaces of welcome for strangers, neighbors, and friends. A people of integrity in a culture of hiddenness...

Welcome to Third Space, a new weekly podcast for our church! In this episode, Bryan introduces us to the Church Calendar-- what it is, why it matters, and why we are pressing into this ancient rhythm of life this year.
