Conflict is everywhere - in nations, politics, cultures, religions, personal relationships - it’s all around us. Do you have any conflict in your life? Of course, we all do. The Bible teaches our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual forces of evil. In other words, our enemy is not other people. We have a spiritual enemy, who uses the corrupt world system and our own i...

May 11, 2018, Episode 4 of Over Coffee. Pastor Alex White interviewed Andrew Shannon about his experience at summer camps. Also, they discussed the message the Mark Taylor shared with the church last Sunday.

Mark Taylor is ‘bringing the message’ from Galatians 5 – the battle is real and so is the power of the Spirit of God in us who believe. “Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.

May 4, 2018, Episode 3. (Sorry about the quality) This week we took the opportunity to talk with a few of our Sr High teens on the way back from a youth conference. We discussed some of the key takeaways they had, as well as why they feel the church is so important at this stage of their lives. So, please take the time and join Bethany MacKinnon, Nick Munden, Serena del Mastro, and Camryn Adams as...

Christians are called by God not to be conformed to the ways of the world. But that doesn’t mean we can simply cocoon ourselves from the world’s influence and be OK. In the natural way of thinking, our minds are already corrupted. So, we need to have our minds transformed by the gospel. As we allow the gospel of Jesus Christ (the ‘mercies of God’) to change the thinking of our hearts, it will dram...

Who and what defines you? We draw our personal identity from our face, our family and friends, plus our dreams, longings and hopes. But at your very core, who are you? Do you live out of an accurate settled identity, or are you uncertain of yourself, where you fit and what you can contribute? If our identity flows out of how the world defines us, or our past failures, our changing looks, or our fe...

Pastors Alex White and Doug Campbell talk about what it looks like to be called into ministry, what 1&2 Timothy and Titus say about what a leader in the church should look like. As FBC is looking for a new pastor in the near future they seek God's word as the structure of what the church should be looking for.

April 15, 2018, Pastor Doug Campbell shared from Romans 8 as we continue to follow the Gospel Project. There is a distinct lack of honest political leadership today. We can criticize leaders for being more about perception than character. But voters tend to be swayed based on hype and appearance rather than policy and character. God gives the church exacting Biblical standards of character and con...

This is FBC Great Village's weekly podcast review and discussion of the week's sermon. This is where different guest are able to share their takeaways or additions to the sermon. We hope this is helpful and provides some great disscussion at home.

On April 8, 2018, Pastor Steve Adams shared out of 1 John 3:10-18. It’s fun to identify features and mannerisms kids exhibit that they get from their parents and share with other relatives. But those realities are much more than mere fascination. They represent a vital truth about life and a theological axiom of the New Testament. The apostle John tells us that “to all who did receive him, who bel...

April 1, 2018, Pastor Doug Campbell spoke on the central focus of the Christian faith, the physical death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Jesus’ resurrection points both backward and forwards for His followers. It points back to what Jesus has done in history through His life, death, and resurrection and God saving us and raising us spiritually. At the same time, Jesus’ resurrection points forwa...

March 25, 2018, Pastor Steve Adams shared from 1 Peter 2:1-17. We are each part of the body of Christ. As those who are chosen by God and receivers of great mercy, believers have been given a new identity and all we do flows out of this new identity. We’ve also been given a new purpose and calling to be set apart for the working and glory of God, with Christ as our foundation and example.

March 18, 2018, Pastor Steve Adams shares from James 2:1-13. As we are following along with the Gospel Project curriculum, we learn God calls us to avoid showing favouritism and to extend mercy to all.
