Tsawwassen Alliance Church

This week, we look back at one of the most legendary stories in Scripture - the battle of David and Goliath. David stepped out in faith to face the giant while the rest of Israel shrunk back in fear. What are the keys to a life of faith exemplified in David - a shepherd boy - that we can learn from? ----------------------------- Thanks for checking out this sermon from Tsawwassen Alliance Church....

This week, we look at the story of Peter stepping out of the boat in faith (Matthew 14:22-33). Unlike the rest of the disciples, Peter took a step out of comfort and safety and into the unknown. And because of that, he experienced what no other person had before - he walked on water! Peter’s story will challenge us to step out in faith despite our fears, knowing the Lord is with us and will sustai...

This week, Pastor Ryan kicks off our summer sermon series called  By Faith,  where we’ll look at some of the figures throughout Scripture who stepped out in faith and saw God move in powerful ways. This sermon will be an introduction to the series, however, that seeks to address three issues: what faith is not, what faith is, and how God responds to faith.  ----------------------------- Thanks for...

This week, we welcome our District Superintendent, Mark Peters, as he conducts Pastor Ryan's installation service. This service is focused on the act of “consecration,” setting Ryan apart to serve God’s purposes in TAC. In Joshua 1, God addresses an established leader—Joshua—and calls him to take on expanded leadership responsibility. This text is filled with God’s assurances to Joshua, but it als...

From our Transitional Pastor, Brian Derksen, "As I wrap up my ministry with you, my very dear TAC family, I reflect on our 22 months together and give great praise to God for you all. My forever words to you all come from the Apostle Paul in Gal 5, 'So I say, Live by the Spirit'…" This week Pastor Brian spends time reflecting on those few words as we celebrate Pentecost Sunday. -...

God does not call us to exist when times are difficult – we are called to thrive! We are not called to  “Make Do” waiting for “enough” money, that career promotion, the “right” relationships, a move to the “right” location, until education is finished, career established or the kids are up and gone and we have “freedom”. The time to live and thrive is now - where you are - in your  current  circum...

This week, Holden Bowker wraps up our series on our core values as he speaks on worship. Worship – it’s a word we frequently throw around as part of our church lingo.  But what do we actually mean by it?  And why is it so important that we designate it a core value at TAC?  This Sunday we’ll spend some time answering those questions and reflecting on some “best practices” for how we worship corpor...

People, businesses, organizations and churches talk quite a bit about our values - but what difference do they really make? Are they well-written statements that get framed nicely but don't actually make a difference in our day-to-day lives? Or do they really impact the decisions we make? What about our value of Mission... nice idea... looks good on paper... but why do we have it and what diff...

Brian Buhler joins us once again to speak on our next core value, Truth. As we observe spiritual leaders dropping like flies, have we faltered in developing disciples who actually know how to hear the voice of Jesus? This message is about how the bible is God's invitation to an ongoing conversation, and how prayer is our "yes" to that invitation. ----------------------------- Thanks...

Pastor Caleb concludes our Living on Mission series with a look at Stephen's final sermon and the death of the Church's first martyr. His passion for the gospel leads him to face a council that is unkind towards this new teaching that has arisen, but Stephen pushes for them to understand that his teaching is connected to what Israel has been teaching since before Moses. It is Israel's pattern of r...

This week, Pastor Brian continues our Living on Mission series as he tackles Acts 6:7-15. When God called people to serve in His Kingdom, He called people who were faithful, available, and teachable. He equips each one of us to do what He asks us to do in ministry. Character, Competency, Calling are important traits for all of us to develop in our role in ministry. ----------------------------- Th...

Neil Truong joins us again this week to continue our series, Living on Mission. Life's demands can be overwhelming, constantly vying for our attention.

Gerry Teichrob joins us again this week to continue our Living on Mission series.
