Southeast City Church Ottawa

Welcome to Southeast City Church! We're glad you're here. This past Sunday we started a new series we're calling The Life You Were Made For. We were all made for a life with God that is so much more than what most of us are experiencing, and the life we were made for is not unattainable or accessible only to a few. God wants to give all of us that life. What is that life and how do we live it? We...

We hope t...

This past Sunday we continued in our series Who Does Jesus Say That He Is looking at the 7 I AM statements of Jesus in the Gospel of John. This week, Jesus makes one of His boldest declarations of His identity and mission- I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. We will explore why the exclusivity of this statement is actually good news and not narrow-mindedness.

Welcome to Southeast City Church! We're glad you're here. This past Sunday we continued in the strange, dark, and violent book of Judges, looking at the most disturbing story in Judges if not the whole Bible- a woman is raped and killed and the response of the tribe is to protect the men who did it. Sadly, this thousands-of-years-old story is not without many modern equivalents. This ancient story...

Welcome to Southeast City Church! We're glad you're here. This past Sunday we are continued in the strange, dark, and violent book of Judges, looking at a story that unlike Gideon, Jephthah, and Samson is probably unfamiliar to most; about a guy who hires his own personal priest who then ditches him to help a tribe looking to use him as a good luck charm for their unsanctioned conquest. Like a lot...

Welcome to Southeast City Church! We're glad you're here. This past Sunday we continued in the strange, dark, and violent book of Judges, looking at the second part of Samson's life. Join us as we reflect on how we can walk in the fullness of what God has for us today and avoid Samson's example of squandering God's gifts. We hope this teaching helps you wherever you are on your spiritual journey....

Welcome to Southeast City Church! We're glad you're here. This past Sunday we continued in the strange, dark, and violent book of Judges, looking at the life of Samson. Unlike the other Judges, Samson was called and set apart before he was even born. His birth itself was a miracle. He was destined for greatness, and yet his volatile and selfish behaviour often failed to live up to his calling. Wha...

Welcome to Southeast City Church! We're glad you're here. This past Sunday we continued in the strange, dark, and violent book of Judges, looking at one of the most disturbing stories in the Old Testament. It's a story of child sacrifice that many have used to mischaracterize the God of the Bible, but is it possible the story doesn't say what we think it says? We hope this teaching helps you where...

Welcome to Southeast City Church! We're glad you're here. This past Sunday we continued in the strange, dark, and violent book of Judges, looking at the story of the rise and fall of King Abimelech, which is really the story of Gideon's legacy, a legacy of revenge and violence and tragedy, and what it has to teach us today. We hope this teaching helps you wherever you are on your spiritual journey...

Welcome to Southeast City Church! We're glad you're here. This past Sunday we continued in the strange, dark, and violent book of Judges, looking at more of the story of Gideon.

Welcome to Southeast City Church! We're glad you're here.

We hope this teaching helps you wherever you are on your spiritual journey. To learn more about our church, ex...

Welcome to Southeast City Church! We're glad you're here. This past Sunday we continued our new series in the strange, dark, and violent book of Judges, looking at the story of Gideon. Gideon is easily one of the most human and relatable characters in the whole Bible. When God comes knocking and calls him to a dangerous and seemingly impossible task, he doesn't respond with robust faith, unwaverin...

Welcome to Southeast City Church! We're glad you're here. This past Sunday we continued our new series in the strange, dark, and violent book of Judges. Othniel and Ehud are two very different people that God used to deliver His people from oppression, one an obvious choice, the other less so. What do these warriors and their experiences have to teach us about God, ourselves, and the world? We hop...

Welcome to Southeast City Church! We're glad you're here. We have entered into a brand new series in the strange, dark, and violent world of the Book of Judges. Why does the Old Testament feel so different from the New Testament and Jesus? Is this just history, or are there actually lessons for us today, Christians and non-Christians, in 21st-century Ottawa in these stories? We hope this teaching...

Celebrate with us the greatest event in history that makes all the difference in the world by looking at the story of Jesus' encounter with Mary Magdalene at the empty tomb. Mary was a severely demonized and socially/religiously ostracized woman whom Jesus set free. She was the first to see Jesus resurrected and to tell the world He was alive. We hope this teaching helps you wherever you are on yo...
