We've all asked it: WHEN will my prayers be answered? What's taking so long? Pastor Dan, our Valley Campus Pastor, gave an incredible message on Sunday about waiting on God, and you won't want to miss it!

What do we do when God is silent? When we can't HEAR him? In this episode, Pastor Angela continues our latest series Backcountry Faith and explores navigating the silent wilderness.

How do I DO this? How do I get through pain? How do I heal through suffering? If you've ever asked yourself these questions, this message is for you. Pastor Angela addresses the problem of pain and suffering, and how Jesus shows us how process pain and navigate dark times.

It's wild out there. The landscape has changed, and we're navigating unfamiliar territory. Life in the wilderness, in the off-map detours, requires a raw faith. Easy answers and shallow convictions don't cut it. As we move toward Easter, we are preparing our hearts, digging into hard questions, and getting honest about the reality of unanswered prayer and the things we cannot make sense of. Journe...

What if today was the last chance you had to show love to someone important to you? What would you do? Listen to this encouraging message from Pastor John titled "Courage To Love" to hear more!

In this message Pastor Rod shares an encouraging word about growth. He brings some helpful and strong biblical truths that will help you if you feel like you're in a holding pattern or cannot see the growth that you've been hoping for and working toward.

It's easy to overlook the small things but, really, it's the small things that are most important in life. In this message, Pastor Angela encourages us with a teaching on what love looks like in small circles. What does it mean to gather in community, in a season where that is limited? Listen on to find out!

What are you looking at? Listen to this incredible message from Pastor Dan, our Valley Campus Pastor, to find out! He explores four mirrors we often find ourselves gazing into. These are the mirror of self, the mirror of circumstance, the mirror of community, and the mirror of God. He begs us to reflect and ask the question: What mirror have I spent the most time looking at lately?

What does it mean to be a friend to others, and to God? What even is friendship, anyway? Brandon, our Youth and Young Adults Director, answered these questions (and more!) on Sunday.

"I'm ready to give up."⁠ Have you heard these words lately? Maybe you've spoken them, or maybe you've heard someone else say them. If you have, you'll want to listen to this incredible message from Pastor Helen!

There are good plans and there are God plans, and there is a difference. As great as our plans may seem, we don't want them if they are not God's. In fact, building anything that isn't of Him is useless. On Sunday, Pastor Angela gave an incredible word about precisely this idea, and you'll want to give it a listen!

We kicked off the first Sunday of the year with a beautiful message from Pastors Angela and Rod Doell. They shared with us three important steps to help us process 2020 and step into all God has in store for 2021!

As Christmas approaches, we've been thinking about these questions: How can we experience the real meaning of Christmas in a deep way? How can we celebrate in a way that really impacts us, and our families, and our neighbourhood? How can we slow it way down so that we don’t miss the essential in the middle of the frantic? This Christmas will likely be different than any other, and we want to make...

We live in precarious times, and we're all realizing that the pressures of this season have exposed cracks in our emotional health and relational connections. There is a mental health crisis, and our desire is to be a church that heals. Our hope is that this four-week series would provide tools from the rich resource of God's Word to help us find emotional healing and relational growth. Relationsh...

A lot of us love Jesus, but struggle to love what He loves. Maybe you've had this conversation with your friends; "Jesus is ok, but I'm not sure about _____________." (Fill in the blank - Christians, religion, the Bible, you name it.) We love the idea of Jesus, but we’re not actually sure what all the rest of the stuff means and how it fits into our lives.
