Luke 9:46-48 - True Greatness - May 28, 2024

We define greatness in many ways, but how does God define it? In this sermon we look at the danger of pride and the blessedness of humility. How do we fight our greatest enemy, pride, and cultivate our greatest friend, humility? Join us and find out! 

Luke 9:37-45 - A Call to Faith - May 19th

In this passage, the disciples encounter a particularly evil demon. They are unable to cast it out. Now is that because of lack of skill, lack of trying, or lack of faith? Turns out it is the latter. And there are serious consequences when the people of God are lacking faith! 

Luke 9:28-36 - The Glory of Christ - May 12, 2024

G.K.Chesterton said, "For when we cease to worship God, we do not worship nothing, we worship anything". We are people who are made to worship and behold. When we sin, we are worshipping something that shouldn't be worshipped. The solution to our worship problem, is not to stop worshipping, but to start worshipping the only one who is worthy of our worship. To set our eyes on a greater glory and pleasure than our sin. And that greater glory is the glory of Christ! 

Luke 9:18-27 - So You Want to Follow Jesus, Do You? - May 5, 2024

In this sermon, we look at one of the most challenging passages of Scripture. Jesus begins by clarifying who he is, and he goes on to instruct his disciples on what that entails for them. If he truly is the Christ, what does that mean for those who are going to follow him? It's not a stroll in the park, that's for sure! 

Luke 9:10-17 - Jesus is Jehovah Jireh - April 28, 2024

In this sermon we look at the very well known parable of Jesus feeding the five thousand. One clear truth is being communicated in this passage: God provides! And though we all probably know that, when difficult times come, we often forget it. May this serve as a reminder that the Lord will provide for you your every need! 

Luke 9:1-9 - Sharing in the Work of Christ - April 21, 2024

It's time for the disciples of Jesus to start sharing in the work of Christ. What does that look like? What mindset should we have when doing it? And what responses should we expect when doing it? We look at all of these in today's sermon! 

1 Peter 4;7-11 - Get your Priorities Straight! - April 14, 2024 - Andrew Zwart

Ephesians 6:1-3 - Honouring Your Father and Mother at All Stages of Life - April 7, 2024

The command to honour your father and mother was given in the 10 commandments and repeated on several occasions throughout. It is very important to God! But what does it look like to honour your father and mother at all stages of life? As a child? A teenager? A young adult? In their old age? In this sermon we explore the answers to that question! 

1 Corinthians 15:12-20 - If Jesus Didn't Rise, We are in BIG Trouble - Easter Sunday - March 31, 2024

The Resurrection of Christ is at the center of Christian faith and doctrine. If there is no resurrection, there is no Christianity. Paul makes it very clear in this passage that to deny the resurrection is going to come with some serious consequences. 

Mark 15:33-39 - Why Have You Forsaken Me? - Good Friday - March 29, 2024

Some of the last words Jesus cried out were "why have you forsaken me?" What does this mean? Was Jesus forsaken by God? If so, how? And what was actually accomplished on the cross?
