This week Laurie and Phyllis will share about Family Secrets and Restoration. In 2 Samuel 13-15 we find that David's brokenness leads to a series of suffering in his family. We can all relate to going through difficult times. What is the hope that can get us through? What can we learn from David's story. Join us as we explore this difficult passage.
This Sunday we will finish our series on David. As we look at his last words we find out that his Final Words Reveal what has become of David. Perhaps there are some very timely messages that God has for us in the last days of David. Listen expectantly to see how Jesus, the Son of David, invites you to live as we examine the life of David together.
In 2 Samuel 11-12 David's heart for God is distracted by his lustful eyes and envious spirit. Even in the midst of this brokenness, we find a contrite heart for God and some surprising redemption. May we learn what it means to be Beloved as Jenny Penner shares God's wide mercy in David's life.
There's a big need in our world today for Mercy. What can we learn from David, and even more, the Son of David, about Mercy. Join in and find out.
This Sunday in 2 Samuel 7-8 we find that David is his usual precocious self, planning great things for God. Is this what God wants? Maybe he should pause to find out. Thankfully God is going to tell him anyway, And we get to learn alongside him that sometimes God says no, but has something better planned for us all along!
As David enters his Golden Era, you can easily see that his heart is seeking after God. But his eagerness gets him into trouble. Once again let's learn together what Jesus has for us through this hard passage.
We continue the journey with David. How will he live out his Kingship? Perhaps that crown starts to go to his head, but there seems to be a few more faults in this man after God's own heart. What can we learn as we continue this story of war, love, murder and crowns?
Join us for the first communion Sunday of the New Year! As we continue the journey with David this new year, we finally see him realize his calling and anointing. David becomes King - though only of part of the kingdom. How does he deal with these tensions? What can we learn from it?
As we enter into a new year we will continue to look at David, his calling and anointing, how he dealt with it and what we can learn through his journey. In 2 Samuel 1, we find out David learns of Saul's death. How he responds gives us so much to explore for our own faith as we follow Jesus. Enter into David's Lament as we go into this new year together.
We will look at the time David hung out with the Philistines - yes - those Philistines! in 1 Samuel 27-31. As he found himself in an in-between time, so do we. How do you handle being in between things? What can we learn from David as we go into this New Year?
Jenny finishes off our Weary World Rejoices advent Sundays series with a message about Gentle Justice and Shattering Justice. Listen in to what Jesus might have for you this advent season.
Grace Wulff speaks on the Promise of Restoration, a Pregnant Pause from the Christmas story.
Do we understand the Compassion of God? Really?
Jeremiah has truth for the people of God, but they are not that interested in it. Would we?
When push comes to shove, will we listen to God or the voices around and within us? Let's see a couple of situations that David finds himself in and learn with him.
David is on the run and is hungry. What is he really hungry for? What can we learn from this rule-breaker? We'll also have a time of Remembrance together for the veterans who fought for our freedom.
Chaplain Chuck will be sharing a message from 1 Samuel 22, a time when David had to hide out in the cave of Adullam. What did this mean for him? What can we learn from it as we Come out of Our Caves?!!?
There is so much to unpack between Saul and David. Today we will see Saul's fear and how David had freedom from it. May we all learn from them for our lives.
How does Saul deal with David's rise in popularity? (spoiler alert - not very good). What can we learn about envy and jealousy here and how to deal with our own? Join us and find out. bonus - Hannah sings a beautiful song at the end :)
This week we have the privilege of hearing from Rev. Grace Wulff as she guides us through some Psalms, especially 138, as we participate in Giving Thanks Like David. Come with your gratitude, come as you are, and engage with each other and with our Creator.
Ray unpacks the importance of Friendship to our spiritual lives, based on the incredible friendship David and Jonathan found with each other.
During this week, some may wonder what the church has to do with Truth and Reconciliation. Does the Bible even address these things that started 400 years ago? Do we have a responsibility here? Please listen to our reconciliation Sunday sermon. Thank you Canadian Baptist Ministries for challenging and resourcing us, thank you Healing at the Wounding Place for guiding and empowering us, and thank you Okanagan Indian Band for walking alongside us as we do our work in this journey of Truth and Reco...
David and Goliath is so much more than a kids story. Unpack what God was doing in the hearts of each character with us and open your heart to see what Jesus has for you in it.
Who was David really? Join us as we embark on a journey to figure out just how this Old Testament man, shepherd, husband, father, and King was after God's own heart. May we all learn a little more of what it means to Seek After God's Heart. This week we explore how God Looks at the Heart. Though many others would be the obvious one to be King, God chose a little runt called David. Why? Let's dive in together.
What about the older son in the Prodigal Son story? Perhaps this is the main point. What motivates us and how can we deal with the shame we feel and put on others?
When Jesus was being called out for eating with "sinners", his response was to tell some stories. One of them has become known as the greatest short story ever told. The Prodigal Son. Why is it so important and powerful? Let's find out.
Listen to this woman's amazing stories of Hearing God, and be inspired to listen a little more closely yourself!
Come and hear how God work in Roy Gavelin's life, drawing him to Jesus through his first wife Trish, and how Roy met Jesus deeply when he became her caregiver.
Why did Jesus tell so many stories, when He could've just told us the truth? How do we truly follow Him?
This week we'll hear from Laurie MacKay on The Beautiful Mystery of God , as he tells us more of his story, based on Phil 3:6-15. Listen with an open heart as Laurie shares vulnerably.
