Trinity Streetsville

Elizabeth takes the conversation outside with Hospitality Coordinator Charlene Souster-Morris. In this episode, we get to experience the BBQ first hand, and learn why something so simple can have such a big impact on the community life of the church.

In this sermon, Rob explores how and why David's last psalm, Psalm 145, is a timeless classic. It is memorable, cross-generational, thoughtful, substantial, and eternal. Upon reflection, we see how the life of Jesus echoes these components, and we see how we can bring honour and glory to God by making our lives timeless classics just as David did in his psalm.

Rev Peter Blundell speaks about his experience with the Alpha Program, missionary work, church planting, and more in this episode of Trinity Talks.

Peter Blundell joins Trinity as a guest speaker as he unpacks Psalm 91.Everyone faces fears and concerns, but where do we turn amid struggles and troubles? Psalm 91 reminds us that in tough times, God is our refuge, our shelter, and our protection.

We all struggle with self-control, whether it's with food, technology, shopping, drinking, anger, or something else. We've all felt "out of control" or "controlled" by something. Given constant temptations and limited willpower, how can we achieve self-control? This Sunday, we'll conclude our 7-week series on the "Fruit of the Spirit" by exploring Self-Control. The secret is paradoxical: to gain control, you must surrender control. Join us to learn what that means!

.As we continue working through the Fruits of the Spirit, Rob preaches on one of the fruits that he says, in fact, does not come naturally to humans. Gentleness, the ability to respond to adversity with softness and not aggression, is a fruit of the spirit that must be taught and grown with the human heart. In this sermon, Rob explores the gentleness of God in the Old Testament, the gentleness of Jesus, the gentleness demonstrated by Paul in the New Testament, and the gentleness by which WE can grow in our own lives. #sermon #fruitofthespirit #gentle #peace #christianity #christian

Get to know a bit about the Prime Time Ministry for seniors at Trinity!

At some point, we've all experienced the sting of deceit or disappointment. The Bible acknowledges this when it says, "No one is faithful anymore," and "those who are loyal have vanished from the land" (Psalm 12:1). Yet, there is hope: faithfulness can flourish within us through the Holy Spirit as we commit to speaking truthfully, honouring our promises, and living with integrity.

From childhood, we've been taught by parents and teachers to “be good” and “be kind.” And we strive to follow these teachings. Yet, unkindness persists in our community, our homes, our relationships, and our world. Even within ourselves, we recognize moments of unkindness. True kindness blossoms in us not merely by following Jesus but by being filled with His spirit. It requires both our conscious effort and inner transformation.

Join us as Eric and Travis give us a behind the scenes look at Trinity Bakes, their theatre experience, and how dramatic performance can give a new perspective to familiar stories, concepts, and everyday life!

As any gardener will tell you, growing fruit takes time. You can’t rush it, you can’t force it... you just have to be patient. We also need to cultivate patience in our spiritual lives. Just as God is patient with us, we need to learn how to be patient with others - even the people who really annoy us! But, in our divisive, fast-paced culture, how do we grow the spiritual fruit of patience?

Martin, Linda, Bruce, and Elizabeth discuss how Christian joy differs from worldly happiness and how it impacts their daily lives.

You can force yourself to be patient, and pretend to be kind, but JOY is different. It’s hard to fake it or force it. With so much in our world that makes us sad and bitter, how do we cultivate the fruit of joy in our lives?

Welcome and Connections Director Sally, along with new church members John and Rupali, share their stories and insight into what it means to be new, welcomed, and the importance of extending hospitality to people - not just at church, but out into the world.

Do you have a green thumb? This time of year people are planting their gardens, but today is Pentecost Sunday so we want to ask: What’s growing in your life? Has God planted his spirit into your life? Is there any growth there? And if not, why not?

Adriane and her daughter Hannah join in the conversation this week for a special Mother's Day conversation. From insight into their special and important relationship, to motherly advice, to mother's day games, and hopes and prayers for the future, this is one fun conversation that will have you smiling and laughing along as you learn about and from this mother-daughter duo.

Mom used to say, “Opportunity only knocks once!” Every once in a while in life we are given a chance to make a change. These "Windows of Opportunity" may be an employment opening, a new relationship, or a financial opportunity. God also provides us with opportunities to take a step of faith and follow him to a better place. How can we make sure we don’t miss our opportunities?

Justin Stratis, Professor of Systematic Theology, speaks on what he finds fascinating about the Bible, misconceptions about it, and how to approach reading it.

When it comes to the Bible, some of us are picky eaters. Like a fussy child, we just nibble here and there and ignore the bits we don’t like. The Bible is more of a snack than a meal. But as we grow up we need to expand our appetite for Bible reading. In fact, Christians are called feed on scripture as their primary source of nourishment from God. Join us this Sunday as we learn some practical ways to read (and eat!) the Bible.

Listen in as Zion, Anna, and Elliot share about their experiences as members of the youth leadership team at Trinity. Hear about their own experiences as youth, and their love for serving the younger generation now. Also hear their insights into what encourages them about the youth of today.

Many people read the Bible just for information, but the real purpose of the Bible is transformation! There is a big difference between a Bible-believing person and a Bible-living person. This Sunday we’ll learn that the Bible isn’t merely a system of belief, it's a way of life.

Bruce, Liz and Chris discuss their experiences as Trinity volunteers, and why others should get involved and serve the church in this way.

What is the Bible? This is a crucial question with big consequences. If we get it wrong, we risk using and misusing the Bible for our own purposes. This Sunday we will unpack a helpful definition of the Bible that will give us a better understanding of what the Bible is - and what it isn’t!

Karen and Jordana discuss the ways that Trinity's women's ministry provides opportunities for connection through friendship, learning and social events, as well as highlight the importance of having a women's-only space

While many are familiar with stories FROM the Bible, very few grasp the story OF the Bible. The Bible didn’t arrive neatly packaged with chapters and verses; it emerged from the experiences of Jesus’ first followers, who were driven to record the transformative events that reshaped their lives, believing it could do the same for us.

Rob, Erikan and Elizabeth unpack Jesus' first words and actions after his three-day long silence, and how we can apply them to our lives

When a child utters their very first words it’s an emotional moment for parents. What may sound like baby talk gives us an early clue about our child’s purpose and personality. On Easter Sunday when Jesus rises from the dead, he breaks his three-day long silence, and speaks some of history’s most memorable words. What were Jesus’ famous first words on the day of resurrection? And, what clues do they give us about his purpose and ours?

There’s an old saying: "It’s not WHAT you say, but HOW you say it.” This Good Friday we will explore Jesus' final words, "It is finished,” exploring HOW Jesus said these words. We’ll discover that though they may actually sound like words of defeat, these are actually words of victory.

Join us for our Maundy Thursday service as we prepare our hearts for Good Friday.

In the Bible, ashes are a sign of penitence and mortality. They remind us of the sin in our lives, the shortness of life, and our need for God’s love. As we begin the forty days of Lent, join us at Trinity Streetsville as we celebrate Ash Wednesday: a beautiful, traditional service of confession, communion, ashes.
