The Compass Church

What you hope for – or hope in – is driving how you see relationships, how you look at money, how you spend your time. It's what you're hoping for – and what you're hoping in – that drives everything about how you're living your life. Christian or non-Christian, it doesn't matter. That's the engine that makes our lives go.

The peace that Jesus brings is the picture, model, and way for us to have peace. Outside of Jesus, there is no way for any of us to experience peace with Him and with each other.

Sinners in need of grace can’t obey God until they know that they are first accepted by God. Acceptance preceded obedience.

The Gospel is at the centre of how we understand our sexuality.

Sex and covenant marriage mirror the covenant love of Jesus.

Your singleness is God’s gracious gift to you, and we need to learn to accept the gift as such.

As a woman, God created you to rightly portray the image of God beautifully as a life giver and helper.

Manhood is not a lifestyle option; rather manhood is something built into the very being of a man by our Creator.

Your identity is that you are created in the image of God, and as such, you have incredible worth and value. You matter to God!

We continue the Beatitudes sermon series with Matthew 5:7, “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.”

We continue the Beatitudes sermon series with Matthew 5:6, “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.”

We continue the Beatitudes sermon series with Matthew 5:5, “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.”

We continue the Beatitudes sermon series with Matthew 5:4, “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.”

We begin our Beatitudes sermon series with Matthew 5:3, “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” In the great contradiction – that is the beatitudes – we will discover that they are all about Jesus.

Sharing stories of how Jesus is working in people's lives and the faithfulness of our Lord.

We conclude our series in Jonah this Sunday by looking at Jonah 4. Chapter 4 opens by saying, “But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry.” Why would Jonah be angry that God spared the city of Nineveh from destruction because of their repentance to God? We will be looking at what was going on in Jonah for him to be so angry, and at the corrosive power of bitterness in Jonah and in us.

In today's message, we look at what we can learn from Jonah as he called the people of Nineveh to repentance, and saw the entire city turn to God as a result. There are a number of examples we can learn from Jonah regarding how we share Jesus with others in our own sphere of influence.
