The Humble King of Peace The scramble for peace in our world has been occurring since time immemorial. We long for peace, nations have peace talks, they even make treaties and have great intentions to fulfill them, but peace remains elusive to our world. Have you ever wondered why? In our attempts to control the outward circumstances we forget that peace will remain elusive ‘out there’ until Peace...

The Season of Advent Humble King - when royalty meets humility We now enter into the season of ‘waiting’, which is exactly what the word ‘advent’ means. It’s not a meaningless wait, but one with expectation, hope and desire. It’s the posture of what it means to be Christian . We wait, and allow God to come into the world in the form of Jesus. Not with flash and fanfare, rather with humility. We we...

THE WAY One of the amazing things about love that emanates from God is the freedom of choice. God lets us choose how we live our lives, and that includes making God our Lord, or not. Jesus came as the way to the Father - the way to life. REAL life.  It’s a LIFE lived in peace, joy, love, wholeness, blessings, praise, etc.  Jesus calls us to follow him, not because he can show us a ‘better way’, bu...

Who is this Jesus that we say we follow and worship? There are books, teaching, seminars, songs and movies about him, but do we really know him?  When you consider the various accounts recorded in Scripture about him, you do have to stop and ask yourself what it is that drives him to do and say things that he does. When you begin to pay really close attention, you begin to discover this quiet, pow...

Re-member...Jesus - The God Who Went First   Have you ever wondered how finite beings can adequately worship the infinite God of this universe? Well, if we’re going to measure worship, then the answer is obvious: We can’t.  But worship isn’t a commodity to be measured, rather, it flows from the love within our hearts. Love is infinite. We love because God first loved us. How did God love us? The a...

New Series: Re-member…Jesus There are times when life swirls around us and it feels like everything is upended and all over the place. A word that probably describes that feeling best is dismembered …pulled apart. When that happens, it’s difficult to know where to start putting things back together. Even our faith-walk with Jesus seems to get shaken up. So where to start? We start with Jesus. We r...

Thankfulness…the Power to Shape This weekend we’ll be gathering with family and friends, either safely in person, or via video, but whichever way you gather, the central focus for us is thanksgiving. The words, thank you get tossed around quite a bit in our day-to-day conversations, so much so, that it is can almost be synonymous to our reply ‘fine’ when asked how you are. Something like… “Hey man...

This past week, Canada took a day to reflect, remember, and consider the ways forward in the ongoing quest for reconciliation between the Indigenous people of Canada and the rest of Canadians, and in particular, those of us who are white.  The word reconciliation is a pivotal word in the message of the Good News that Jesus brought to our world. It means to strive to bring together for the purpose...

September 30 has been declared as the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, a day set aside for Canadians to honour the indigenous people of this land, and acknowledge our role in coming alongside those who have suffered unspeakable harm. Much harm was caused as a result of the Residential Schools which were operated by the Church and founded by the Canadian government. But the time has come...

Jesus was once asked when the kingdom of God would come. Jesus replied with these striking words: “The kingdom of God does not come with observation; nor will they say, ‘See here!’ or ‘See there!’ For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you” (Luke 17:21) With these words, Jesus gave voice to a transformational teaching. If God is ruling in our hearts and minds, how does that impact the way we fee...
