As we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Saviour, we pray that the truth of the Gospel would become real to su in a way that it never has before. Even if we feel deeply familiar with the record of the birth of Jesus, we must never forget the life-changing power that it holds. We'll learn more today with the remainder of Pastor Jeff's messge, Jesus: the Christ.

Merry Christmas! What a beautiful time of year to celebrate! We know that this time of year is about more than presents and decorations, it's about celebrating the birth of Jesus.

As children, it’s common that our favourite thing about Christmas is receiving presents. Ideally though as we grow up, it’s not just about what we receive, but about what we give. The forgiveness we receive from the Lord is a beautiful gift, but are we able to give that same gift to others as well? We’ll learn more today with Pastor Jeff Edwards.

Take a minute and think back to the greatest Christmas present that you ever received? Was it a toy? A family heirloom? A pair of socks?

Modern cars have many features. Even base-model cars have more features than luxury cars did thirty years ago. But, if my car has a great stereo, excellent air-conditioning, and heated seats, it won’t matter if it can’t be put into gear and drive away.

No person’s car has ever caused them to speed. One might say it’s a high end car that’s designed to go fast, or it’s just so smooth that I didn’t realize my speed, but at the end of the day, you’re still the one in the driver’s seat. Money is the same way. Money by itself isn’t bad, but our attitude towards it will determine whether it’s a blessing or a detriment. We’ll learn more today with part one of Ian Cameron’s message on generosity.

Pastors Jeff and Maj remind us why we can have hope in a dark world!

When travelling from point a to point b, we can plan a route before going. What do you do if there’s a roadblock that’s preventing you from going the way you want to go? Do you abandon the trip?

We’ll learn more today with Pastor Jeff’s message entitled, Faith Works- Living and Receiving by Faith.

Pastor Jeff wants to help you uncomplicate your faith!

We can only hold on to so many things at the same time. If we want to grab a hold of what’s new, we need to learn to let go. We serve a good God who want to bless His children, but are we still holding to past hurts and regrets that are preventing us from grabbing a hold of new blessings? We’ll learn more today with Pastor Jeff’s message, the power of a living faith, part four.

Not everything in life is going to go our way, we can’t control that. What we can control though is how we respond to our circumstances. Will we respond in fear, or will we respond in faith? We’ll learn more today with Pastor Jeff’s message, the power of a living faith, part three.

When we say we speak of our beliefs or our strongly-held opinions, it should affect more than our words.

James 2:15-16 says, Suppose you see a brother or sister who has no food or clothing, and you say, “Good-bye and have a good day; stay warm and eat well”—but then you don’t give that person any food or clothing. What good does that do? The love that we profess in Jesus should extend beyond words,and into our actions. We’ll learn more today from part two Pastor Nandom Gunen’s message entitled, Walking in Love.

A piano player isn’t defined by their ability to read music, their familiarity with other piano players, or the music they listen to, but by how they play the piano.

We’ll learn more today from Pastor Nandom Gunen’s message entitled, Walking in Love.

When teaching someone to drive a car, before you can teach them about steering, accelerating, and braking, they first need to learn to take off the parking brake, otherwise their travels will be impeded. As we journey with the Lord, are their things that are impeding our prayers? We’ll learn more today from part two Pastor Nandom Gunen’s message entitled, the importance of prayer.

It seems most new devices, be it for the office or the kitchen, need either wifi or bluetooth. These tools are designed to help us in new and incredible ways, but if we never take the time to establish a connection, they’ll never be used for the proper purposes. We are designed to do all things with a dependence on the Lord, a dependence that is established by prayer. We’ll learn more today from Pastor Nandom Gunen’s message entitled, the importance of prayer.
