On preparing and getting preoccupied with the preparation. We can sometimes avoid the thing God is calling us into because we are busying ourselves with other things. Luke 10: 38-42   At the Home of Martha and Mary 38  As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. 39  She had a sister called Mary,who sat at the Lord’s feet lis...

Sermon Questions What decisions can you invite God into this week? Can you think of a decision that has been or is hard for you to invite God into?

We spend a lot of effort and doubt asking ‘is God trustworthy?’. There is a better question to ask. Believing in God isn’t a one-time doubt-free experience. It is a daily process of working through our doubts with him.

What does it cost us NOT to be in community?   Sermon Questions  Q: Have you ever experienced the unity that Jesus talks about? (Can you describe that experience a bit?) Q: Has disobedience cost you unity? (How might your obedien...

Last week we discussed what Discipleship is. This week we discuss how relying on the Holy Spirit can change your inner life and how you carry out discipleship.   SERMON QUESTIONS If we were following Christ in his words, wi...

There is no cookie cutter, not every disciple looks the same BUT Every disciple has the ability, the power, to love others and enter relationships with the world around us in a radically new way.   This is the first sermon in our series on Discipleship It is important because Jesus told everyone to go and make disciples.   All Christians share the same mission, it is called The Great Commissi...

In Genesis 18:1-15 we hear about the three men who visited Abraham. God was among them and he told Abraham that he and Sarah would have a baby within a year. When they heard this news Sarah laughed. This story has been very focused on Abraham, but Sarah has a role that can’t be devalued. A lot of people today are offended by the ancient patristic cultures. In this story, we see a picture of...

Pastor Kyle is preaching about the Covenant of Circumcision (Genesis 17) where God offers a covenant to Abram. He changes Abram’s name to Abraham which means ‘father of many nations’. God asked Abraham and his men to be circumcised, as a sign of the covenant they are entering Circumcision is not a requirement for believers today, instead, God asks us for a circumcision of the hea...

Rob Nicholls is sharing about submission to God. Submission sucks, it means giving up control of our own lives. But we NEED submission to get to places we couldn’t get to on our own. To accomplish anything we need a catalyst, a call, and conviction. When we have a catalyst, something that prompts change, we need to submit ourselves to the actions required to make accomplishment happen. God h...

Pastor Kyle preaching on Genesis 15:7-21. At its core, this is a story about God’s love, about God reaching down and choosing to be in a relationship with humanity. Everybody has this invitation into this same relationship with God, with God’s mercy, love, and self-giving. Everyone has that invitation, today.   The  Lord ’s Covenant With Abram GENESIS 15  After this, the word of t...

Jude is preaching on Genesis 15 : 1-6 Genesis 15 The  Lord ’s Covenant With Abram (NIV) 15  After this, the word of the  Lord  came to Abram in a vision: “Do not be afraid, Abram.      I am your shield,      your very great reward.” 2  But Abram said, “Sovereign  Lord , what can you give me since I remain childless and the one who will inherit [ c ]  my estate is Eliezer of Damascus?”   3  And Abr...

Abram leads his men on a mission to rescue his nephew Lot. So what gives Abram the confidence to make a move? God had just promised him the great land and the offspring like the dust of the earth. Why would he risk losing everything on the audacious rescue of his nephew Lot? It seems like success is a long shot here. From a cost-benefit analysis point of view, he really shouldn’t go. Not unless yo...

Picking up in Genesis 13 with Abraham being sent away from Egypt and into the wilderness. God calls us out of this scarcity living (there won’t be enough for me) and into abundant life (God provides you with everything you need) “Faith makes choices looking at God’s abundance rather than our own scarcity.” “ God created us in His image so that through our very lives we woul...

“When we fail to lay hold of God’s promises for us, we limit ourselves to what we can handle, rather than what He can handle” Pastor Kyle sharing a message on Genesis 12:10-20, where Abraham enters Egypt and is so scared they will kill him and take his wife Sarah when they see how beautiful she is. So he lies about who his wife is so that he won’t be killed. What we learn a...

What does it mean to be #blessed? Abraham receives God’s blessings not because of who he is and what he is done, but because of who God is. God calls Abraham out of his life, to follow God and receive this blessing. He calls Abraham into the unknown, away from his home, he asks him to rely on God. When God calls us OUT of something, he is calling us INTO something better. Genesis 11:10-26 Ge...

Pastor Kyle Nichols speaking on Genesis 11, which is the story of the Tower of Babel. How we seek and handle power – we want to use it for authority and control.   Genesis 11   New International Version (NIV) The Tower of Babel 11  Now the whole world had one language and a common speech.   2  As people moved eastward, [ a ]  they found a plain in Shinar [ b ]  and settled there. 3  The...

What happens when God’s promises don’t play out how we expect them to? Intern Jude is preaching on Genesis 10:1-32 , the lineage of Noah’s sons. This is in follow up to  Genesis 9 (see last week’s sermon ), where Ham disgraces his father and God promises Shem that he will have dominion over his brother Ham.

Isn’t it great news that God uses imperfect people? Our Intern Jude Klassen shares a message on Genesis 9:18-29 , on the final days of Noah’s life. He shared a message of hope that we won’t all get this perfect – and God still uses us and values us. As well as a reminder not to lose our long-term sight of the race God calls us to run.
