Happy New Year! God was faithful in 2025, and He certainly will be this coming year! We have much to anticipate. We are beginning a new series through the Book of Exodus entitled Know-Grow-Go this Sunday! Our Leadership Team picked the Book of Exodus to remind us of the power of God in our lives. We are very excited to see what God is going to do in and through us as we gather together each week a...

Think back to the most difficult times of your life. You may say, Jon, why would I do that when I want to put my past in the past? I do not mean to lance any old wounds, but I want you to think about what God has produced in and through you during that suffering. Do you have greater faith in Him? Do you have more perseverance? More empathy for your fellow sufferers? Did you grow through suffering...

I hope you had a great Christmas, and your heart was full of joy and wonder at what our Saviour Jesus has done for us. This Sunday is becoming one of my annual favourites when we gather between Christmas and New Year for a time to share God stories. It is a powerful time remembering God’s faithfulness, power and love in our lives. I usually take time this week every year to review my year going ov...

What is one of the most elusive things in the world? Some say cats. Those who do, have you ever tried to wrangle up chickens that have been enjoying life as free rangers? The trick to rounding up chickens and cats is offering food. What is more elusive than cats or chickens is peace! Unlike food drawing cats and chickens, food requires peace to already be in place. Who eats with somebody they don’...

Most likely you are reading this on Black Friday. Don’t get run over chasing shopping deals. Our family is visiting my wife’s family in the United States this American Thanksgiving week. Many from Lori’s family are not just gathering to celebrate the holiday, but also to spend some time with our family matriarch, Lori’s mom. Mom Henry is a very godly woman who has overcome a lot in her life and is...

This Sunday we finish off our series in Romans, with Pastor Aaron preaching on Romans 16. Romans 16 is a list of people in Paul’s day sent to serve Christ’s Church and to crush Satan. Have you ever thought that our mission is spiritual warfare? That when we serve and make disciples, we are gaining back ground that the Devil has tried to rob from God. That is how important your seemingly “insignifi...

Do you think about how many on our planet do not have access to the Bible or to a gospel witness? Do you have a desire for the gospel to reach new places? This was one of the burning desires of the Apostle Paul as we read Romans 15:14-33, the passage we will be studying this week.

"Total trust leads to total praise!” This was a phrase that I heard often from my senior pastor Rev. Dr. Rick Baker. But it begs the question: what is between total trust to total praise? Or how does total trust turn to total praise? I think it is hope. Hope is a cousin to trust. If you lose hope, then you lose trust. So, hope leads to trust but also to joy and peace. If this doesn’t make sen...

I confess that one of the areas I have struggled with the most in my life is bearing with the failings of the weak. To admit that seems to require double repentance. First, I need to repent of my lack of empathy towards the weak. Second, I have wrongfully elevated myself to be better than those whom I consider the weak. Thankfully I offer to you a better pastor - the Lord Jesus Christ who is not p...

I started playing hockey when I was 7 years old after watching an older boy in our church play, and immediately fell in love with the game. Up until just a few years ago, I played pick-up hockey weekly in the winter. I was never a great skater, but tried to make up for it with hustle. I worked hard at staying out of the “sin bin” (aka the penalty box) because I just wanted to play. I do vividly re...

One of the many things that I am thankful to God for you is your compassion. I have seen this time and again when we have given you the opportunity to respond to global needs such as in Ukraine or caring for children through sponsoring 41 children in Togo through Compassion Canada or giving 97 gifts last Christmas through Slavic Gospel Association Immanuel’s Star. I believe we are to be compassion...

Happy Thanksgiving! This weekend is a time for faith, family, food, fellowship and football. Thanksgiving is also a time to fight judging one another. Judging one another poisons our fellowship with our family and friends. This is what we will learn from Romans 14:1-12 this Sunday. I hope you have a great weekend and are thankful to God for all that He has given you, especially His Son Jesus.

How can we live out the gospel and God’s commands? Read and study Romans 13:8-14 in your families and small groups. This Sunday we will learn more about how to live out the gospel and God’s commands as a church.

Many of us complain about government, but did you know that God considers government one of His servants? This is what we will find out this Sunday as we study Romans 13:1-7. God has given government to do good and punish the evildoer, but more importantly, teach us to submit to authority because it is sourced in Him. No wonder why God wants us to pray for those in authority, submit to them and pa...

This Sunday we are going to study one of the most practical passages in the Bible. Wondering about what to do about evil? Read Romans and apply 12:9-21. Want to know how to love your fellow Christians? Read Romans 12:9-21. Wondering about how to conduct yourselves at work? Read and apply Romans 12:9-21. Want to know how to respond to tribulation and persecution? Read and apply Romans 12:9-21. How...

What do you think about yourself? Do you think of yourself more highly than you ought to? Maybe you think of yourself more lowly than you ought to? Be honest! One of the ways to think of yourself properly is to realize that everything you have is because of the grace of God. Another way is to use the spiritual gifts that God has given you to build up the body of Christ. Do you know what your spiri...

This Sunday, we are going to focus on heaven and whether you have a reservation there by studying Revelation 20-21. The Gospel will be presented with an invitation to receive Christ and make a reservation in heaven. We look forward to seeing what God will do.

Happy Labour Day weekend! Since much of our life involves using our minds and bodies to work and provide for our families and ourselves, it is appropriate that this Sunday we get the reminder to offer our bodies as living sacrifices and renew our minds in Christ from Romans 12:1-2. These verses are some of the most famous in the Bible and rightfully so. Following these verses will affect most of o...

When you hear the word “Israel” what comes to mind? Stories from the Old Testament? The Holy Land? Maybe the current conflict in the Middle East? Does God still have a plan to save Israel? This is the question we will be tackling on Sunday morning from Romans 11:25-36. Then at night I invite you back at 6 PM when I will be teaching about Israel, Palestine and our Church followed by a Q & A. Ma...

The Apostle Paul in Romans 11:11-24 uses the analogy of the Church as a wild olive branch being grafted into the original olive tree of God’s people - the Jews. We will unpack God’s husbandry of His people on Sunday. My big hope is that you will be even more amazed with what God can do with His people than He can do with trees He created.

Has God rejected His people Israel? This question shows that we put God on a higher standard than we do our fellow humans. History tells us that God’s people rejected Him time and time again despite God’s long-suffering with them. So instead of the question being about why God would put up with such obstinance for so long, the question is still on God and whether He will reject His people? Read an...

God could have written the gospel in the sky, or later in our times, sent us all a text about His love for the world by giving us His Son to die for us. Instead, God tasked us with the responsibility to proclaim Christ to others. This is what we will be learning this holiday weekend as Pastor Jason unpacks Romans 10:5-21. Praying and serving the lost is important and needed but let’s not forget to...

What does it mean that Christ is the end of the law? This is the major question we will be tackling this coming Sunday from Romans 9:30-10:4. It has massive implications for eternity and our everyday life, so come prayed-up and studied-up.

This Sunday we begin a section of Romans 9-11 that may be the most controversial and challenging in the Book of Romans. It has a lot of emotional aspects to it as Paul describes God’s sovereign plan for His people Israel. It takes on greater weight with the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. Let’s model how we can talk about and maybe even disagree on hot topics but still show Christ's love...

The Apostle Paul declares in Romans 8:37 that because of Christ we are more than conquerors. What does that mean to be more than conqueror? And how does the promise of never being separated from the love of God help us to be more than victorious? Come this Sunday and find out.
