By healing a paralyzed man on the Sabbath, Jesus caused an uproar. Not only did he demonstrate his authority to heal but also his authority to bring reform to the Sabbath and claim equality with God the Father. While the lame man walked away in freedom, Jesus created a target on his own back for this very act. ----------------------------- Thanks for checking out this sermon from Tsawwassen Allian...

In a culture of burnout and productivity, Sabbath is God’s life-giving gift that frees us from exhaustion and from defining our worth by our work. When Jesus heals a demonically oppressed woman on the Sabbath, we see the true meaning of Sabbath - that it leads to freedom, healing, and deeper trust in God.----------------------------- Thanks for checking out this sermon from Tsawwassen Alliance Chu...

When it was time for Jesus to be born, Mary and Joseph sought a cozy room at an Inn. However, God's plan was that Jesus would be born in a manger and worshipped by Shepherds.

In the story of Zechariah, we see a man who goes from doubt to praise after seeing the fulfillment of God's promise that he would have a son. But Zechariah would go through a humbling process before seeing the fulfillment of this promise. In the end, we see that God's grace, not Zechariah's faithfulness nor certainty, leads to the birth of John the Baptist who would be the forerunner f...

Mary is a prime example of the type of person whom God delights to partner with.

When John the Baptist sees Jesus' ministry succeeding, he chooses humility over comparison and jealousy. We learn from his example that humility means having a proper view of self - knowing who we are and who we are not. This security in his identity led him to proclaim, "He must increase, but I must decrease."----------------------------- Thanks for checking out this sermon from Tsa...

Jesus won't let us try to contain him as a good teacher or moral example. He is not satisfied with that explanation. He is our Saviour, our Messiah - or he is nothing. He did not come to condemn us - but to save us from our own drive to condemn ourselves. ----------------------------- Thanks for checking out this sermon from Tsawwassen Alliance Church.

When Jesus arrives in Jerusalem during the Passover festival, he sees that the Temple has been turned into a marketplace. He makes a whip and drives out the animals being sold and flips the tables of the moneychangers. The question is "why?" To understand Jesus' anger, we have to look at the significance of the Temple. What we come to realize is that not only is Jesus justified in th...

In John 2:1-12, we see the first of seven signs in the gospel pointing to the divine identity of Jesus. At a wedding in Cana when the wine runs out, Jesus turns turns water into wine.

In the introduction to his gospel, John presents Jesus as the divine Word and Light who came in the flesh to reveal God the Father and invite us into His family.

The Church is called to be a community radically shaped by love - a chief value of the Kingdom of God. Following the example of Christ, the early church  reflected Jesus' sacrificial love through fellowship, generosity, and grace for one another and by showing compassion toward those outside the church as recorded in Acts 2:42-47.----------------------------- Thanks for checking out this sermo...

Building intentional, intergenerational relationships is key to leaving a lasting spiritual legacy and sustaining the church for generations to come. A Kingdom Community is one that values the contributions of each generation and encourages the young and old to bless each other and grow together as one body. This week, we explore these themes in Psalm 78:1-8. ----------------------------- Thanks f...

After Jesus' resurrection in Matthew 28:16-20, he charges his followers to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them and teaching them to observe all that he had taught them. This is still the task of the Church today. As a community shaped by the Kingdom of God, we are invited to join God in His mission of redemption by making disciples. But before we ask the question, "How do...

What motivates us to serve and share our faith with others? Are we duty-bound, or serving out of a feeling of guilt and obligation? Or have we found the wellspring of motivation that comes from true acquaintance with Christ-like love? This week, we will learn about TAC's partnership with Daybreak Point Bible Camp, and learn from 2 Corinthians 5 about the best motivator for disciples of Jesus....

In Mark 2:1-12, we meet a man who is paralyzed and brought to Jesus by his four friends in a creative way. Jesus commends the friends for their faith and heals the man. This story teaches us that God responds to the faith of others on behalf of those who are struggling. And yet, this story ultimately points us to the authority and compassion of Jesus. ----------------------------- Thanks for check...

As we continue looking at the faith of biblical heroes, this week we will explore the story of Thomas.

Elijah was a faithful man of prayer who boldly confronted idolatry and called Israel back to God. In 1 Kings 18, we see the spiritual showdown between Elijah and the prophets of Baal. This story challenges us to forsake idols, trust in God's unmatched power, and commit to prayerful, obedient lives, believing that God can bring about a deep spiritual awakening even in times of widespread spiritual...

God is not looking for ability but availability. Your ‘yes’ in weakness is stronger than your ‘no’ in strength.

Paul Brooks opens up the story of Gideon to reveal these truths and more. ----------------------------- Thanks for checking out this sermon from Tsawwassen Alliance Church. We are a church in Del...

Hebrews 11 includes what might seem like an unlikely figure in the Hall of Faith—Samson. Really? To many, he appears to be a man who failed in God's call on his life. It's natural to have questions about how Samson could be considered a man of faith based on the events of his life. Join us as we walk through his story together and discover the surprising lessons his life still holds for us today....
