Have you ever desired to be part of a deep, meaningful community? A community where you are loved, cared for, and participate in a shared and meaningful purpose? Join us as we continue our new series, The Way, and Pastor Bob Cowie teaches about what it means to be part of God’s community.

Is there a practice, pattern, or habit that you engage in helps you live life to the fullest? In the Gospels we discover Jesus’ modelling practices that helped in the ups and downs of life when people were for him and against him. One of the practices that Jesus models is the practice of solitude. Jesus consistently withdrew to solitary places to be with the Father and root his identity in what th...

What difference does the grace of Jesus make in your day-to-day life? As we wrap up our series, The Story of Grace, we explore the difference that grace makes in the life of a person who experienced the grace of Jesus and could not stop talking about it. From his story we’ll discover the secret to experiencing more of Jesus’ grace and helping others experience his grace.

In our lifetime, there are many things that shape the way we view ourselves and how we approach the world around us. Into the middle of those views enters the grace of God displayed through Jesus and it invites us to a new way of living and a new identity. Join us as we take a look at a Grace that Changes and the life we were created for.

One of the most important questions we will ever ask ourselves is “Who am I”? And where we run to to find the answer to this question really matters. Some of us run to the opinions of others. We run to our accomplishments to give us meaning. Or sometimes because of shame we run away from this question because we believe the answer to this question is tied to our greatest failures. But today, Jesus...

Everyone thought it was over; Jesus was dead, sin had won, then the unexpected happened. Even those who knew Him had doubts - but the resurrection proves Jesus is who He said He was. Jesus’s death and resurrection gives US a new beginning. Sin does not have to control us or defeat us - because death was defeated when Jesus rose. God’s grace has defeated your sin. Grace wins. Join us this Easter Su...

When we hear the word grace, what often comes to mind, is a gentle kindness displayed in a relationship. Yet as we begin Holy Week leading up to Easter, we see that grace can disrupt. What starts as a time of celebration welcoming Jesus into Jerusalem quickly changes as Jesus' grace disrupts the traditional structures and powers. Join us as we learn about how grace disrupts and begin our new serie...

In a day of, “no money down” and “no hassle returns” it is easy to use things for as long as we want and then discard them for something new when it suits us. Commitment isn’t often something that is highly valued or embraced in many areas of life. Join us as we conclude our Building Blocks for Life series, as we focus on how Nehemiah called the people of Israel to be committed to God wholehearted...

Every day, no matter who we are or where we have been, we are worshipping something. The choices we make with our time, energy and resources quickly reveal what takes priority in our lives. Join us as we explore how Nehemiah led the people to make everyday choices to worship God with their lives.

Are there areas in your life where you feel broken? Where you’re experiencing pain or hurt because of your own decisions, or the decisions of others? Every person knows what it’s like to be broken, to sit among the ruins of our lives. The good news is, as we see in Nehemiah 12, that God is a rebuilding God. He takes our lives, enters into our situations, and rebuilds them for his renown and our be...

What does your lifestyle say about what you believe? What do the things you say, the behaviours you engage in and the actions you take every day say about God? Sometimes what we say we believe and the beliefs we reveal by our actions don’t match. That’s what happened in Jerusalem a long time ago. Having completed the wall and engaged in a month of celebration and worship, the people of Jerusalem r...

Welcome to the St. Albert Alliance Church Digital Gathering! Have you ever tried to keep a good thing going? Have you ever tried to sustain or maintain change over a long period? In Nehemiah the people of Jerusalem put aside differences and united to accomplish a great feat, the rebuilding of the city wall, but what will happen when the work is done? How can the positive changes that began with th...

Have you ever been so distracted that you can’t get anything done? Sometimes the distractions in life can be so overwhelming that they hold us back from doing things and ultimately keep us from living as God envisions. How do you overcome the distractions in your life? In Nehemiah 6 we discover a way to respond to distractions and build a life in keeping with God’s vision.

Have you lost your passion or holy discontent? Over time our passions and holy discontents can fade, lose focus, or get off track and become misaligned with God’s plan. When this happens, we need an alignment. When your holy discontent is not aligned with God’s greater plan, you need the courage to reflect, confront and adjust your actions, attitudes, and behaviours to bring your life back in alig...

When we begin to lean into the Holy Discontent that God stirs in our hearts seeking to address things that are not right, we sometimes face opposition. Courage is often required to continue moving forward. Join us as we continue our series, Building Blocks for Life, and look at where true courage comes from and how we can walk in courage as we seek to partner with God meaningfully in the places wh...

It's often said in sports, "There is no I in team." A successful team is a collection of individuals willing to come together and put aside personal goals for the sake of the bigger picture. Join us as we continue our Building Blocks For Life Series, and learn about how Nehemiah called people to a goal bigger than themselves and see that we are truly better together.

As we continue our series, Building Blocks for Life, join us as we look at how Nehemiah responded to the Holy Discontent that God had placed in his heart. Nehemiah’s vibrant prayer life, combined with an “if you want to use me you can” heart posture before God led to powerful change and meaningful transformation! God’s presence, provision and empowerment expressed through Nehemiah’s faithful and b...

Entering a new year is often a time for resolutions - some stick, and others don’t even make it the first week. At the core of these resolutions is the sense that things are not as they should be, and it doesn’t take very long to look at our world and see that things aren’t as they should be. What if God is inviting us to be good news and participate in His work to make all things new? What if thi...

Food brings us together; it has a way of inviting people into relationships, and for many of us, we have great memories attached to the table. But what if Jesus saw the table differently? What if, when Jesus talked about the table, or eating and drinking, it wasn’t just a metaphor for His Kingdom? What if His primary method of bringing others into the kingdom was through the table? Jesus is inviti...

Missed our Christmas Eve services? Watch now and experience the One who is Emmanuel, God with us. The One who was promised to restore love, joy, peace and hope. "And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." Isaiah 9:6 NLT Worship Set: Behold - Phil Wickham (ft. Anne Wilson) Great Things (Christmas Version) - Phil Wickham Joy To The World (Joyful Joy...

Throughout our lives, we all experience having promises made to us. Sometimes, we also experience promises being broken. These experiences shape how we approach promises made to us - they impact the trust we place in them and the hope we hold onto as we long to see promises fulfilled. Join us for church as we look at how different people respond to promises and how that can offer hope for those of...

It is easy to rush past the things right in front of us when they become familiar. In the middle of the Christmas season, the busyness and stress of it adds to our tendency to rush past what’s right in front of us. Yet, in the darkness a light breaks through, a child born for us, and His name is Jesus. Join us for church as we look at the good news of the Promised Child.

As we come into the Advent season, we remember the Christmas story. Join us as we take time to pause and reflect on the awesomeness of Jesus - that the creator of all things would come down to take the form of a baby. And He does so because of His deep love for us.

Jesus illuminates the truth that what we give attention to, what we treasure, will always capture our hearts. In Luke 12:22-34, Jesus reveals how to overcome worry by putting God’s Kingdom first. Join us as we dive into the passage with Transitional Executive Lead, Carl Waldron.

Have you ever wondered what tithing is all about? Why do we tithe? Join us as Pastor Bob talks about what the Bible says about giving to the Lord and how giving benefits us.
