The main idea of Joel 1 is that God, in His sovereign rule over creation, uses even natural disasters to confront His people with the depth of their sin and the resulting barren spiritual condition it leaves. He calls them to genuine repentance and offers a merciful opportunity for restoration in relationship with Him before greater judgment arrives.

This week we look at the last chapter of Habakkuk and consider the prophet’s vision of the Lord who comes in glory and wrath.

Even when the world seems to be crumbling around us, God’s people live by faith in Him, trusting that He is at work to bring about His righteous purpose and plan.

This psalm again calls God's people to praise the Lord. The focus is on God's faithfulness to the covenant he made with Abraham, and through Abraham, all of God's people. 

This week we consider a psalm in which the psalmist exhorts himself to "bless the Lord" in response to who God is and what God has done.

This week we look at a psalm of David in which he expresses his desires to imitate God's righteous reign.

This week we consider another enthronement psalm and the mantra "The Lord Reigns!" Psalm 99 is distinctive in how it addresses the holiness of God's reign.

Psalm 97 is a song of praise that declares God’s powerful reign as revealed through His law, His incomparable nature, and His people.

In this week's psalm the psalmist admonishes us to joyfully worship God and to not harden our hearts.

This psalm considers the majestic, mighty, and relational reign of the Lord.

Psalm 91 is a psalm that considers what it means for God to be our refuge.

Psalm 89 provides a powerful example of how to sustain our faith when God’s promises feel distant, grounded in four great assurances of God's faithfulness.

This week we complete our sermon series considering the death of Saul and how that emphasizes the sovereignty of God.

In 1 Samuel 29, the accounts of David and Achish offer valuable insights into gaining wisdom through reflection on the believer's calling in Christ, the function of conscience, and God's gracious providence.

1 Samuel 27 reminds believers that, in our moments of despair, we need to anchor our trust in God's unchanging attributes, continue to mortify our sin in the power of the Holy Spirit, and persevere in our faith by clinging to Jesus. 

This chapter focuses on God's providential preparation of David to be the covenant king of Israel. God works through a wise, godly woman.

What was God the Father's role that first Easter? God the Father was at work fulfilling His promise to redeem His people from sin, bringing to fruition the events foretold by His prophets, revealing His love for us at the cross, and preparing His people for the day when we will be reunited with Him.

God is forging us into the image of Jesus. 

This week's passage emphasizes the continuing degradation of King Saul and the godly, king-like virtue of David.

This week we consider how God sovereignly reigns over the events of David's departure from Saul's court.

Today we will be looking at a moment in the life of Moses as God asks him to go back to Egypt.

The beloved story of David and Goliath demonstrates the unrivaled supremacy of God and how he uses weakness to accomplish his purposes.

The difficulties encountered in this passage point us to the truth that God is to be obeyed and when we fall short of obedience, we should whole-heartedly repent.

This passage teaches us about making decisions by faith or other motivations through two leaders and their actions.   

This week we consider Samuel's words and actions which propose a graceful God and the expected response of God's people to his grace.

This week we consider the ascension of Israel's first king. The passage indicates that God delivers and establishes his people.

This week we return to our sermon series through 1 Samuel. Today's passage covers Israel's request for a king and the responses of Samuel and God.

Today's message builds on the previous three messages about God's mission in the world, and our part in it. Today we will "zoom in" to consider one we might share in the Lord's work: Short-Term Missions.

Building on the Mission of God from last week, this Sunday we consider the mission of the church

Psalm 87 is a psalm extolling the excellencies of Zion, the city of God. Zion’s glory is that God is with his people. 

This week's psalm is another psalm of lament that looks to God to restore and revive his people.

This week's psalm is both a psalm of lament and a psalm of imprecation. We consider the psalm, consider how it directs our gaze to Christ, and how we might apply it.

Psalm 81 is a powerful call to listen and live for our great God, as we explore the impact of embracing God's formative work in our lives.

This week we consider a lament by Asaph that ultimately pertains to the glory of God.

This week we see how godly lament help us navigate times of chaos and crisis. 

This week's psalm considers God as judge and God's judgment. In light of those things, it calls us to thanksgiving and praise.

This week we endeavor to understand the heart of the Father through the heart of a father.

This week we look at God's judgment against Israel as he uses the Philistines to defeat them in battle and take the ark.

Genesis 3 gives the account of how sin enters God’s good creation, and of how God plans to redeem it all from sin.

Our sermon series in the Book of 1 Samuel begins with the incredible story of the birth of Samuel.

In this second-to-last sermon in our Hebrews sermon series we consider the final request, final prayer, final exhortation, and final words of the author.

This week we consider the Easter story in a single verse from the Book of Hebrews.

This week we look at how the author of Hebrews delivers the final warning to his readers and the response that is anticipated.

In this passage, believers are warned not to allow worldly priorities to distract them from their commitment to Christ, so that they may ultimately see God and rejoice in His presence for eternity.

Corporis speaker and Westminster Seminary professor A. Craig Troxel will be preaching on the heart and condemnation.  

This week we consider the faith of the Judges, Kings and Prophets as well as faith in exploits and faith in hardships.

This week we consider the faith of the Patriarchs--Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph--and expand our understanding of godly faith.

We begin our consideration of the eleventh chapter of Hebrews considering faith as we prepare for a chapter on the topic.

Today we will look at the four key truths that God had for Joshua that we can apply to our lives today.

This week’s Christmas sermon considers how the coming of Jesus defeats despair, disrupts silence, and dispels darkness.

Because of Christ’s high priestly work, we are able to persevere in faith by drawing near to God, holding onto the confession of hope we possess, and live as those characterized by love for one another.

This week we compare the priests who stand with the Priest who sat down at God's right hand and what that says about their sacrifices.

We continue to consider the sacrifice of Christ and compare it to the Old Covenant sacrifices. 

Returning to the Book of Hebrews, we consider more reasons from the author concerning the superiority of Jesus and the covenant he mediates. 

This week we look at some of the challenges to church membership. 

This first sermon in our series on church membership looks at the foundation for membership seen throughout Scripture.  

This week we look at a psalmist’s crisis of faith and learn how that teaches us in our day.  

This week's psalm examines the thoughts, words, and actions of an elderly follower of God. 

This week we consider an individual lament of the psalmist as he is being reproached by his opponents.

This week’s psalm considers the blessing of God and how he uses it in our lives. 

In Psalm 65, David's song of praise provides encouragement for believers to offer praise to God as our Savior, our Sovereign Creator, and our All-Sufficient Provider. 

Psalm 63 teaches that communion with God is what truly satisfies our souls.

This passage illustrates God’s accessibility to us by recounting His design for the tabernacle. 

In this passage we see that Jesus' ministry eclipses all others because his divinely established throne, which is set in God's heavenly temple, is evidence of a better covenant.

This week we consider the extent of the salvation that Christ has accomplished for his people. 

This week we consider Jesus's superiority based on the better hope that is found in him.

Our final sermon in our Easter series “From the Dead” looks at practical implications of the resurrection of Jesus. 

This week our passage gives us 5 charges to encourage the Jacqueline Street Alliance Church team with as they begin Sunday morning services next Sunday.

This week we consider a passage which exposes the insufficiency of both the Levitical priests and the Mosaic Law and directs our attention to the sufficiency of Christ.

Today we look at who Melchizedek was and why that encourages us to think about who Jesus is.

This week we welcome Pastor Kevin Rutledge as he teaches from Exodus on the Jealousy of God.

We continue considering the warning passage that we have looked at for several weeks. This week we see that determined disregard for the Son and his salvation will result in judgment. We are admonished to not neglect so great a salvation.

In our passage today the author of Hebrews takes a break from reflecting on Christ’s high priestly office to rebuke his audience for their immaturity.

We see in these verses the connection between Jesus as our high priest and our perseverance in the faith.

This week we return to our sermon series through Hebrews considering the rest of God and how believers enter into it. 

This morning we will see that part of the reason that Jesus was born was to destroy the devil. At Christmas we celebrate the birth of our victorious king, the one who will destroy his enemy forever.

Having discussed the nature of the warnings in Hebrews last week, we will consider the warning delivered in our passage and see how it can be applied in our day.

As we finish our series on the Church, we see that the hope of the church is found in the fact that God has promised to redeem his people and to dwell with them forever, and we hope and believe that he will.

As we spend the next 3 weeks considering the church, we begin this week looking at the very first church of the New Testament age, the church in Jerusalem. We consider how it was born, how it conducted itself, and how it expanded.

In our text today we continue to see how Christ is superior to angels in every way. In this continued reflection on the humanity of Christ and his greatness, we see that he is great because he is our saviour, brother, deliverer and friend.

The author of Hebrews culminates his discussion of Christ’s superiority over angels with a warning and an admonition. 

This week’s passage puts forward the Son as the ultimate revelation of God.

With our first overview of Hebrews, and our first sermon in this series, we will consider the purpose of the letter. 

This week we look at another psalm in which David is dealing with his enemies and praying to God.

In Psalm 57 David praises God in the midst of his trial. In his response to hardship, we see that God is always a safe place for His people, and He is worthy of praise even in the midst of our struggles.  

This week we are back in the Psalms considering Psalm 54. We will look at this prayer and consider that God answers prayer according to his attributes and actions, according to who he is and what he has done.

This week we consider the nature of God’s judgements; they are specific in details as well as specific to their targets.

As we see God’s glory and character revealed in Ruth chapter 2, we are challenged to properly order our affections and priorities, so that we would possess a right fear of the Lord, a greater fervency for serving Him, and a satisfaction in Christ that moves us from despair to hope. 

The final sermon is our series through the Gospel of Luke considers the ascension of Jesus.

This week we consider the burial of Jesus. 

This week we look at the crucifixion of Jesus. 

Jesus suffered the inquisition and torture without striking back. We are called to follow in His footsteps living and loving as He did. 

Though the title for this week’s sermon suggests it is about Peter and his denial, the passage in question is truly about Jesus and faith in him.

This week we consider Jesus’ prayer on the Mount of Olives and look at some things it teaches us about prayer.

As Jesus’ death approaches, he shares a Passover meal with disciples from which he taught them and teaches us about his coming work of salvation.

In this final episode of Jesus’ teaching ministry, he teaches about the end time and the end, the last days and the last day.

This week we consider the angel’s admonition to “fear not” as heard by Joseph in a dream. 

This week we’re looking at the story of the shepherds and the angels, and the announcement of the birth of the Saviour. In it we see that the reality of God’s birth and his coming near to us is a truth that drives fear from the hearts of the people of God and brings them to praise. 

Jesus concludes his confrontation with the religious leaders by exposing their hypocrisy to the public. What He notices causes us to consider what may be blinding us to what we’re missing out on. 

This week we look at the confrontation Jesus has with the Pharisees concerning the resurrection.

This week we move from examining God's grace and our abuse of it, to looking at the warning Christ gives of coming judgement, then to how Christ’s warning is loving and calls us to repentance and faithful obedience.

This week we look at the well-known account of Jesus’ entry in to Jerusalem. 

In our passage today we are looking at a familiar story that displaces a simple, yet profound truth that Jesus saves. The account of Jesus and Zacchaeus shows us how Jesus moves toward the lost in order that they may be found and saved, and it challenges us to do the same thing.

In this passage from Luke, Jesus speaks about the prophecies, about his suffering and his desire to see them fulfilled. We also encounter his closest disciples struggling to understand the meaning of this.

This week we look at God's presence with the city of Jerusalem and what that teaches us about his presence in general.

This week we look at Jesus’ well-known and beloved saying. “Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God.” 

This week’s sermon focuses on the parable of Lazarus and the rich man.

We finish off our Easter series on Resurrection Sunday looking at the success and increase of the Servant’s saving work which can only be understood in light of Christ’s resurrection.

This second of two Christmas sermons looks at the anticipation so many experience at Christmas time and considers the expectancy and hope at the birth of the Messiah. 

This week we consider the first two psalms from the second collection of psalms in the Book of Psalms.  There is a longing deep within the soul of mankind which can only be satisfied by God.   

Victory is an image of Christ's atoning work drawn from the battlefield. Our victory is Christ's victory, which he won in his life, death, and resurrection. Victory is our Easter anthem.

Justification is an image of Christ's atoning work drawn from the courtroom. Our justification is the declaration of God that we are righteous with the righteousness of Christ.

This week we begin our Easter sermon series looking at the biblical concept of satisfaction. In fact, satisfaction is not an image of the atonement, rather it is the very foundation of humanity's need to be atoned for; if God did not need to be satisfied the atonement would not be necessary. (Rand Luka)

This week we consider Jesus's baptism and the divine endorsement that came immediately following it.

This Christmas Eve day we consider the birth of Jesus as recounted by Luke. We will hear that Mary "gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger." We will look into the significance of this to our lives.

This week we look at the angel Gabriel's prophetic announcement of the birth of Jesus and Mary's reaction to the message.

Soli Deo Gloria - This week we are completing our Reformation Series on the 5 Solas by studying “Soli Deo Gloria” or, “Glory to God Alone.” What is the glory of God? How can we see the glory of God? What does it mean to glorify God in everything that we do as commanded in 1 Corinthians 10:31? We’ll be addressing these questions (and more) this morning.  

This morning we will be continuing our series on the "five solas" and looking at Sola Gratia or By Grace Alone. We will see why grace was so important to the reformers 500 years ago and why it is just as important today.

This morning we begin our 5-week sermon series celebrating the 500^th anniversary of the Reformation with a sermon on one of the "five solas" of the Reformation. Sola Scriptura, or Scripture Alone, is the focus of this first sermon.

This week we look at church membership and its relationship to discipleship. We will consider what it is, its biblical foundation, and its benefits.

In previous sermons we have discussed how disciples are called to make disciples. But, how does one make disciples? Today's sermon answers that question; disciples are made through evangelism!

This morning we look forward to hearing from our own Graham Buchanan, continuing our series in Discipleship.

The time of the Judges was a period of religious degeneration for Israel.  As the book of Judges winds down, we are given a picture of how their worship has gone astray, and how the people are desperately in need of a new kind of leader.

This week's sermon continues in the Samson narrative and focuses on his conflict with the Philistines. The passage reveals much about Samson, the Israelites, and Yahweh.

This week's sermon focuses on the story of Jephthah and what that story teaches about the nature of salvation. In this narrative section of Judges we will see that God's salvation is far beyond humanity in every way.

This well-known section of Gideon’s story demonstrates the weakness of humanity and the strength of God.  In today’s sermon we consider what these truths communicate to us and how they challenge us to change.

Today we are pleased to welcome Alliance International Worker Bill Lobbezoo.  Bill and his wife Ilana have served with the Alliance in Cambodia for over 25 years.  They have two girls who are studying in Canada.  This morning, Bill will be speaking from Matthew 24:1-14 regarding completing the task of world evangelization.

Today we look at the first two judges, Othniel and Ehud. We will see the cycle of falling away and deliverance that will continue throughout the book along with God being the continual source of deliverance.

This final sermon in our series on biblical manhood and womanhood is an opportunity to remind ourselves what we have considered so far and to reflect on some key areas of application in regards to what we have learned.

This morning Pastor Gary Prickett from Ilderton Community Bible Church will be preaching from Ephesians 5:21-33, considering the differing roles of men and women in the home. 

This morning we welcome Pastor Nate Wright, who will continue with our new sermon series called Male and Female. He Made Them.  In this series we take a very confusing and very buzzy topic in the culture and apply God’s word to it. How should we think biblically about gender roles, gender identity, marriage, sexual orientation? Has God spoken clearly into this topic that the world seems so divided on? We believe he has, and we believe there’s a lot at stake.

On Easter Sunday we see that, just like David, Jesus's forsaken-ness is not forever and his salvation results in God's praise. 

Today we look at the first line of Psalm 22. This line, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?", was shockingly spoken by Jesus on the cross. We will consider what this line meant to David and to Jesus as we approach Easter.

This morning, Dave De Smit will continue our series on Psalms, focusing on Psalm 20, a prayer of the people to God for the success of the Davidic king. Psalm 20 reminds us that our Lord is our protector, our strength, and our helper in difficult times. This strength is not meant for our own selfish use, but meant to enable us to build God's kingdom here on earth, wherever He has placed us.

Today we will see a significant change in the tone of psalm. Psalm 18, instead of requesting help, is a psalm of thanksgiving for God's help in securing victory. The victory, and the divine help given, tell us much more about God than about David.

Psalm 16 could be described as a prayer of trust. In this prayer, we see an example from David of what a life looks like when it is lived in complete trust in God. This psalm shows us that David was 'all in' with regards to his trust in God.

In Psalm 15 David deals with the questions "What does a worshipper look like? What is required for living in God's presence?" We will learn from the answer the psalm provides and we will consider what that means to a New Testament worshipper.

In this Psalm of David we see how David prays in times of difficulty and danger. We see how he prays and what he prays. We also see why he prays: In perilous times believers should prayerfully and whole-heartedly trust the love of God because he has loved them steadfastly. 

In Psalm 11 David has delivered a song that helps us to battle fear by putting our faith in our sovereign God.

Today we look at Jesus, who is, among other wonderful things, the receiver and the giver of gifts.

The New Testament writer of the book of Hebrews makes clear that Psalms 45 and 110 point to the Messiah who was the Saviour that was promised. These psalms are promises that an exalted, priestly, powerful king would initiate a gracious, righteous, and eternal reign. That promise makes Christmas a joyful prospect.

In Psalm 12, David speaks of God's words, comparing them to pure silver, refined and purified. David, through the psalm, indicates that the words of God are words to live by, even in the midst of evil.

Psalm 10 begins with a question that many of us, if we are honest, have asked: "Why, O LORD, do you stand far away? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?" This sermon will consider how the psalmist helps us understand how we should respond when we are in a similar situation.

After sermons on several heavy psalms, this Sunday Pastor Jude will preach on a psalm of praise. Psalm 8 begins and ends with the psalmist exclaiming "O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!" The psalmist intends to excite our affections and incite our worship.

Psalm 7 was written by David in direct response to a false witness who had risen against him to destroy him.  In this Psalm we learn how David found refuge in the LORD from his false accuser.

Since in the compilation of the book of Psalms we have good reason to believe the individual psalms were arranged intentionally, we can look at Psalm 4 as rising out of the lament we encountered in Psalm 3. Psalm 4, then, can teach us about lamenting and the process of growing in our confidence and peace despite our circumstances.

In Psalm 1 we were instructed on the importance of being found on the way and in the congregation of the righteous. In Psalm 2, we are instructed to recognize the reign of the Righteous One, The Lord's Anointed.

This morning we begin our sermon series in the book of Psalms. Psalm 1 is considered by many an introduction to the whole Psalter and this week we will consider it as such.

This week’s sermon is a summary of the entire series from Philippians. We will see what gospel partnership looks like and learn that all of gospel partnership is of grace.

This week, in our second-to-last sermon from Philippians, we consider Paul's words concerning the Philippian church's support of him as they partnered in the gospel.

This morning we continue to look at what it looks like to live in Gospel Partnership. From Philippians 4:8-9 we see how Paul emphasizes the importance of the way we think and practice, and how it impacts our faith.

As Paul addresses a disagreement that had developed in the Philippian church, we are informed that reconciliation resulting in a restored single-mindedness is the shared responsibility of all believers and it is the gospel that empowers this effort.

In today's passage Paul begins to exhort the Philippians in regards to some practical applications which arise out of the previous verses. We will consider the exhortations, and how they apply to us today.

Using Paul's method of counting, anything and everything is loss when compared to Christ. In today's sermon, we will look at some of the reasons he thinks along these lines.

This week we will see Paul's use of comparison to contrast a life that places its confidence in Christ versus a life that is built on anything else.

This morning, Pastor Mike Wilkins will preach on the story of Jesus calming a storm at sea and the subject of how to prepare for the "storms of life".

In Philippians 2:19-24, what appears to be mundane at first glance is actually a challenging text with many foundational Christian ideas being displayed. This text will prove to be both inspiring and applicable to our daily lives.

Why was it necessary that Jesus suffered? And what does his suffering mean for us today? We will ponder Jesus' suffering that preceded his death in this first of two Easter sermons.

Today we are celebrating the official Installation of our new Lead Pastor Jude St. John. We also welcome for the occasion our District Superintendant Stephen Harbridge, and our other special guests.

This week Paul presents to the Philippians, and to us, the example par excellence in regards to having a mindset grounded in humility. Jesus Christ, who he is and what he did, demonstrates the humility we all should desire to emulate as gospel-partners living in a gospel-worthy manner.

The verses under consideration this morning are likely the beginning of the main body of Paul's letter to the Philippians. Paul instructs them to live a life worthy of the gospel. Today we observe what a gospel-worthy life looks like and how we attain one.

Today, Joel Knapp will be preaching the fourth sermon in the Gospel Partnership series which examines Paul's perspective on his own circumstances and the advance of the gospel.

The second sermon from the letter to the Philippians considers Paul's prayer for the Philippians, which concludes the opening of this letter.

This Sunday we finish our sermon series on the incarnation by considering this doctrine's impact in several areas: the fulfilling of God's original purpose for man; an example for living; and finally, a pattern for our redeemed bodies. The sermon will be followed by an extended time of worship allowing us to respond to the glorious truth that God became man.

This Sunday, in our second sermon in the series considering the incarnation, we will learn how God the Son becoming a man provided a mediator between man and God resulting in redemption and reconciliation for those who repent and believe.

This morning, Stephen Harbridge, District Superintendent of the Central Canadian District of the Christian and Missionary Alliance will be speaking to us from John 17:20-23.

The sixth and final dispute between God and his people through the prophet Malachi is under consideration this week. God confronts his people because they are questioning the entire covenant between them and their God; "Is serving God really worth it?"

William Tsui, Director of Chinese Ministry Development for Trans World Radio is speaking to us this morning about the important work of TWR.

Our fourth sermon from the book of Malachi considers the third dispute between God and his people. This dispute is concerned about faithfulness. Malachi’s audience questions God’s faithfulness when, in fact, it is they who are being unfaithful.

This Sunday is the first sermon in the series Dead Orthodoxy. The Old Testament book of Malachi is the focus of this series. This minor prophet brings a message that challenges our religious observance with a call to living faith. This morning we look at the entire book of Malachi.

Our third sermon from the book of Malachi considers the second dispute between God and his people. This dispute centers around the priests’ perception of God and how they act in light of that knowledge. The question to answer: Is God worthy of honour.

This morning Graham Buchanan, our Director of Community Connections, will preach about what it looks like to be “All In“ in regards to how we daily live out our faith.

Today Pastor Jude St. John will preach the 12^th sermon of the ENDURANCE series from Hebrews 12. The passage under consideration develops the writer's explanation of why we must endure; we endure because the result of endurance is being with God!

This morning pastor Jude St. John will preach from Hebrews 12:15-17. We will see that enduring runners have a responsibility to keep watch over other runners and to diligently guard against failing to endure.

This morning, Dave De Smit, our own Director of Student Ministries will be looking at the presence of the Lord's loving, Fatherly discipline in our lives as an indicator of the authenticity of our faith.

In this third sermon of the series "Endurance" we see what the race before us looks like and how we should respond to that knowledge.

This morning, we begin a series called ENDURANCE from the twelfth chapter of the book of Hebrews. Today we consider how our endurance is impacted by those believers who have gone before us. 

This morning's Mother's Day sermon considers the importance of seeing evidence of grace in people's lives. We focus in on mothers and their strengths and weaknesses in finding evidences of grace. Our Scripture passages are Psalm 48:12-14 and 1 Corinthians 1:4-8.

This morning's sermon is the third of four on the subject of HELP IN HIGH PLACES. We're looking at the specific help that Jesus offers us as our "great High Priest," and how that help can change everything!

This morning, Pastor Mike begins our new 4-week series entitled "HELP IN HIGH PLACES," looking at the specific help that the Lord Jesus offers us as "our great High Priest."

This week's sermon considers "Triumphal Entry" of Jesus into Jerusalem. Looking at the event in the Gospel of John, we will see that the crowds were right about Jesus, but in the wrong way. And we will ask, "Are we also right about Jesus in the wrong way?"

The last "I AM" statement of Jesus is recorded in the Gospel of John: "I am the true vine...." This organic metaphor indicates many wonderful things about our relationship with God as well as instructions on being "branches."

In John 11 we read the story of the raising of Lazarus in which Jesus declares himself to be "the resurrection and the life." Jesus indicates that this event is about more than life and death; it is about the glory of God.

Our study of "The WORDS OF JESUS CHRIST, According to John" continues with the words by which Jesus contrasts himself to the religious leaders of Israel: "I am the Good Shepherd".

Our study of "THE WORDS OF JESUS CHRIST, according to John" continues with the words by which Jesus explained that he himself is the only way to get in, and to get out, to where we, "his sheep", need to be.

With the series introduced, we now come to the first of Christ's seven "I am" statements. THE BREAD OF LIFE.

We begin a new Sunday Morning Sermon Series on the "I am..." statements that Christ made about himself.

For this third sermon about Christ's birth, we consider the miracle of it all from the only entirely unique point of view.

The first of three Christmas sermons focussing our attention on the details of the first and best "Christmas gift".

This final sermon on 2 Peter has us considering how Peter combats the teaching of the scoffers, which is doubting the return of Christ and encouraging sin. How should we respond in our day to these challenges?

We take a second look at the second chapter of the second letter of the Apostle Peter, in which he describes the identifying marks of the false teachers of his day --- and ours.

In our fourth sermon in the series based on 2 Peter, we consider Peter's confrontation of the false teaching that was the occasion for Peter's second letter.

On this Thanksgiving Sunday, as we study 2^nd Peter for the second of nine Sundays, we consider the Apostle Peter's instruction to supplement our faith with seven specific character traits -- and how to actually do that.

This morning Graham continues with the third and final Sunday in which we look at our six word Statement of Intention [Making Known the Greatness of God].

This morning, Pastor Mike preaches on this first of three consecutive Sundays in which we look at our six-word Statement of Intention ["Making Known the Greatness of God"] and our first answer to the question of how we hope to accomplish this goal. 

SERMON: Foundation On Christ (Graham Buchanan)
This morning, Graham Buchanan, our Director of Community Connections, preaches from Luke 6:46-49, looking at how to build our foundation on Christ.

This week's sermon, the ninth in our series on the book of Joshua, considers the inheritance of Israel as indicated by God's promise of a land for His chosen people. We too are people of promise, and these chapters point to the trustworthiness of the Promise-giver and our need for faith in His promises. (Joshua 13 - 21)

The prophet Jeremiah gives a stark contrast between a man whose trust is in man, and a man whose trust is in the Lord. At the end of our service we will be taking communion together as we remember the sacrifice and death of our Lord and celebrate His resurrection and the hope He gives us of eternal life. 

At the conclusion of our Communion service today, we will be collecting a special offering for our WLA Cares Fund, to meet needs within our church family and community.

This week's sermon considers the sin of Achan from Chapter 7 of Joshua and the salvation of Israel from Chapter 8. In this narrative we will see the seriousness of sin, the glory of God, and the pattern of salvation.

In this fifth sermon in the Joshua series, we return to the Israelites on the banks of the Jordan River. Chapters 4 and 5, the passages for today, describe the river crossing and focus on the goodness and might of God.

The fourth installment of the Joshua sermon series looks at the theme of Renewal. Two episodes of renewal occur in the book of Joshua: chapters 5 and 24. In considering these occurrences of renewal, we will have a special focus on how they apply to fathers in this Father's Day sermon.

Joshua's Charge is the title of today's sermon, the second in the Joshua series. In the first chapter of Joshua the Lord charges Joshua to be strong and courageous. We consider three themes from God's exhortation to Joshua and identify how we can see Jesus in those themes.

Today's stand alone sermon is entitled Work in Christ and considers Colossians 3:22 - 4:1. Paul describes principles of work which instruct us in our vocations.
