The Older Brother Problem - Jordan baker May 25, 2025 Forest City Church In this message, Jordan spoke from Luke 15:25–32, focusing on the elder brother in the parable of the prodigal son. While the younger brother’s rebellion is obvious, the elder brother reveals a more hidden danger: self-righteousness. Rooted in good behavior and moral pride, it often goes unnoticed. We explore three key traits—comparison, resentment, and disconnection—and how they quietly pull us away from God and others. This message challenges believers to examine their hearts and rediscover God's grace. First time watching?

This week, Amy shared an engaging message through the story of the prodigal son. She unpacked how our modern idea of freedom which is absolute independence often leaves us more lost than fulfilled. Instead, Jesus invites us into true freedom: not escaping limits, but living in loving relationship with the Father who gives us life. Come explore what it means to be truly free.

Next Gen Takeover Sunday - Riley Braun November 17, 2024 Forest City Church t's time for one of our favourite Sundays of the year! And as such, we couldn't just crop one part - but felt we needed to share this entire experience with our online community. We believe at Forest City we learn so much from one another - and that includes the youngest amongst us! This Sunday our kids joined the 'big people" for "upstairs church". Everything from hosting, to singing, to communion. Plus, we heard from one of our very own high school students to hear to what God is up to at her school. Riley Braun, our Kids Lead - shared a message close to his heart about the importance of choosing to remember the past, and carrying on the faith to the next generation. By the end, we all felt a little more silly, a little bit more wiggly but most of all - a little more thankful for the young people in our church leading into the future with joy and optimism!
